Burlington Home & Garden Show

We had a great time at the Burlington Home & Garden Show this past weekend. Our Tootsie Pop Ghirardelli Triple Chocolate brownies won 4th place in the Brownies and Bars category of the chocolate contest. We enjoyed meeting with local businesses, seeing several of our supporters, and making new friends.

Here is the recipe for our brownies!
