STORAGE TIPS

  • Room Temperature: If you plan to consume the brownies within a day or two, you can store them at room temperature in an airtight container. Ensure they are completely cooled before transferring to the container to prevent moisture buildup.

  • Refrigeration: For longer storage, particularly in warmer climates, refrigeration can help prolong the shelf life of the brownies. Place them in an airtight container or wrap them tightly in plastic wrap before refrigerating. They can last for up to 5-7 days in the fridge.
