Patriotic S'mores Brownies

It’s so fun to make festive treats for the 4^th of July!

Since the little Dudes and I are so focus on summer fun (not to mention summer school for yours truly), summer treats are fun but easy!

So for these brownies, I used a box mix (help! I still can’t find a great homemade recipe!) and stuffed them with my favorite s’more flavors and some festively colored M&Ms!

The family loved them and I had time to study!

What’s not to love?
