CRANBERRY-NUT BROWNIES



Cranberry-Nut Brownies image

I like to add extras like chips, nuts and dried cranberries to a brownie mix to turn regular brownies into the best brownies ever. Sometimes, I frost them with chocolate frosting and sprinkle with finely chopped walnuts for a super-rich treat.-Rita Cotten, Metropolis, Illinois

CRANBERRY-ORANGE BROWNIES



Cranberry-Orange Brownies image

This is the perfect fall brownie! I absolutely love how these come out. The orange blossom water adds a delicate sweetness to the fudgy chocolate, while the cranberries give a surprising tangy flavor. The only problem is these brownies do not last very long--they'll be gone the second you put them on the table!
