What a fun recipe this is and so perfect and personal for that special someone on any holiday really. I can totally see these being made into eggs for Easter with pastel-colored frosting, little pumpkins for Halloween, ornaments or trees for Christmas, and how about customizing them to look like mini birthday cakes...how cute would that be? I can't wait to try this recipe...Oh, my gosh, shamrocks for St Patricks Day would be cute too!

These look so awesome. I don't love candy but I love baked goods! I am definitely going to make some of these. The frosting looks so yummy. They don't have to be made for valentines day, you can make them with any special message on them such as for a teacher at school. I never thought of doing something like this which is personalized. Thanks for this idea!

1000000x YES! Brownies are already a fave. Add frosting to them, and I'm in heaven. Kind of want to make these for my goddaughter's Valentine's Day party at school now. I'm sure they'd be a hit!

These were so yummy! Brownies are my weakness and these weren't too overly sweet. It would pair perfectly with a scoop of ice cream, too!

By the time I got to these, there were only crumbs left. Tasty crumbs.
