CHOCOLATE APPLESAUCE BROWNIES

Friend Barb treated the group to two desserts when we met at her house recently for a fun afternoon of Farkle. One of the desserts was her Scandinavian-Almond Cake she served us before that I shared with you .  It is the best!

When I went in the kitchen to get some, I saw that she had another dessert for us to choose from. I think we all took a little of each. Believe me you would have, too. They were both so delicious.
