I was concerned that the berries were a bit tart but it was great with the brownies. We put strawberries and blueberries on one side and then sliced bananas on the other. They were both something we will make again.

Used Ghiradelli's triple chocolate (semi-sweet, milk & bittersweet) brownie mix & then followed the recipe on down, topping it with a mix of blueberries, raspberries & small strawberries & had a wonderfully tasty pizza, that we shared with several neighbors! Absoultely great & a dessert recipe I'll keep on hand! Thanks for sharing it! [Tagged & made in Please Review My Recipe]
