Brown Butter Cinnamon Squares, a few of my favourite ingredients all working together to make the ultimate sweet square of loveliness. Healthy treats these are not, but what is life without a badass bake every once in a while. There are only six simple steps in this recipe, it’s incredibly easy and there is no going wrong. These cinnamon and chocolate gooey squares are somewhere between a brownie and a blondie – they’re basically a hybrid treat! Ideal for dessert or as with a cup of tea (or gigantic glad of milk!). One positive thing has come from isolation and staying home and that is remembering all these great recipes I used to make regularly before having the kids. I’ve literally been blowing their minds with all the new treats!
