The story behind this recipe
I work in a detox ward of a hospital. I meet many individuals with various health conditions. I work with them to focus on loving themselves and taking care of their inner-child. One day, a patient begged me for something sweet, but she was diabetic. I took a poll and figured out everyone's favourite childhood treats- it was a tie between peanut butter sandwiches and caramel treats. So, the next day I brought in a whole wheat, no sugar caramel and PB brownie. Everyone was in SUCH a good week. I now try to bring in brownies once a week, if I can afford it....
