We sampled these last evening at a concert at West Point shared by the generous Mom of a new cadet. They are amazing and she was nice enough to tell us where to get the recipe, so I plan to make them, too! I cannot believe it looks so easy. Thanks Stacy and thanks Paula for this great new dessert!!

These were so easy and they are delicious! Trying out a few recipes for a bake sale and I think this may just be the one! Followed the recipe exactly, no modifications.

Hey Rhonda! No cream cheese is used in this recipe.

Hey Barbara! The orange zest is the outer orange peel of the orange. Not the bitter white pith. Use a microplane to zest your oranges. The pungent flavor of the zest is wonderful in these brownies.
