Red is such a sexy color.
It brings instant attraction and allure to something (or someone), and this good old brownies is no exception.
I have been seeing a lot of these around and I told myself I’m not gonna give in to the temptation, but I’m so human…with a weakness for brownies and cheesecake and swirly things, and the color red. 😉
