Recipe of the Month - Jack Daniel's Honey Brownie

Tennessee Whiskey and chocolate - can you think of a better combo? We have taken the classic brownie to the next level by adding a little shot of Jack Daniel’s Honey Whiskey.

Jack Daniel’s Honey Brownie

Jack Daniel’s is great by itself, but even better in a brownie! Did you know that Jack Daniel’s is the oldest registered distillery in the US? Since being established in 1866, there have only been 7 people who have held the title of Master Distiller.

This month, we will be sharing the recipe to one of our local favorites - the Jack Daniel’s Honey Brownie. Try this out for yourself at home and tag us on social @dandrewsbakery.
