Brownie Bourbon Balls Recipe
These delicious Brownie Bourbon Balls combine all things forbidden: packaged brownie mix and bourbon. Applesauce and egg substitute help lighten up this uber-decadent dessert. These rich chocolate wonders are good on their own, but even better rolled in chopped, toasted walnuts.
