I have been trying to eat healthy this month. Ok, ok, healthier at least.
Usually I buy the veggies, and then they sit in the fridge drawers for weeks until they mold and then I have to throw them away.
But for the last month we have actually eaten all the veggies we bought. Thank goodness for bowls of Italian Veggie Salad for dinner.
My sweet tooth has even died off to some degree...and that makes me kind of sad!
There have been a couple desserts that I have tried, and they were good, but I didn't want any more after a bite or two.
Shoot! I had 4 Reese's peanut butter eggs hidden away for a snack attack... and now I don't even want those. Who am I now???
At least it has been good for the hips and thighs! Sigh!
But then I made brownies for a dinner we went to. I have a serious brownie problem.
I just can't say no to them....especially these White Chocolate Goo Goo Cluster Brownies. They were my downfall yesterday.
Veggies? Who wants veggies when you can have chocolate goodness in melted form. Am I right?
Soft marshmallows, crunchy peanuts, chewy caramel all on a fudgy brownie... you can see why it was such a problem, right?
I ate spoonfuls of the topping. I even licked the bowl clean. Then I ate at least 3 of the brownies. (at least I think it was only 3)
I'm so glad I took all of them to the dinner...it could have been very dangerous today if any of these white chocolate goo goo cluster brownies had been left in my house.
Stop drooling on your keyboard and go make your own pan of White Chocolate Goo Goo Cluster Brownies...you know you want to live on the dangerous side!

These are first on my list to make me feel better after pulling my first gray. I just know they will make me forget all about my little gray, these and a bottle of dye. ;0 so glad I stopped by from Creative Thursday. I would love to invite you to come party with us sometime on Fabulous Friday. Have a great weekend!

I think you look incredible! Eat a brownie, then send the rest to me. I'll take one for the team! Yes, that's the kind of friend I am! 🙂
Carrie Burrill

I sure hope you shared these at Scrumptious Sunday!! They look awesome!
Terry
Those brownies look amazing! Pinning. I hope my sweet tooth never dies out. My mom did a diet that required she give up all sugar for I think a month, since then she cannot eat sweets without them making her sick to her stomach - quite sad.
Sandra
I'm trying to do better, too. In fact, I'm having apple slices right now for supper because I had a big lunch ... never mind the fact that I'm swiping each slice through a mound of chocolate cream cheese. But we all need a little dairy, right?
Hayley
Yuuuuuum!! I have heard of googoo clusters but never really knew what they were exactly... now I know they look best on top of the world's fudgiest looking brownie 🙂
Holly
Oh goodness. These look sinfully divine! Bravo to you for eating more veggie's the last month!! 🙂 I swear, the healthier I eat. The less I crave goodies like this!
The Roasted Root
Just like you and so many other souls out there, I have a major brownie problem as well. I'm so glad I can't touch your brownies, else I wouldn't be able to put em down till they were all gone. 😉 They look sooo moist and tasty!
Dorothy @ Crazy for Crust
Fudgy, rich, and delicious. I'd have eaten at least 3. Or the whole pan. Whatever. 🙂
