Choc Chip & Banana Brownie...

It seems I have an overabundance of very ripe bananas in my fruit bowl!

Now that is a great excuse to make brownie don't ya think?

 Chocolate Chip & Banana Brownie to be precise!

 Serve warmed or cold.

With or without cream.

Too make it extra special add some custard.

 It's a very nice lunchbox treat too!

 You'll find the recipe HERE.

To make the stencil for the icing sugar I  printed a butterfly template from the net and cut it out.
Place on each brownie segment, sieve icing sugar over the top, and carefully remove the stencil.
(My gorgeous daughter came up with this idea and it really works!)

New Photographic Inspirational For YOU...

Have you got a mood or dream board?

I have two!

One in my office and one in my art studio...

The boards are covered in photographs and inspirationals - 

from quotes, art ideas,  garden and decor dreams.

If you are a regular to Mia Bella Passions blog,

you have probably worked out I am quite fond of photographic inspirationals.

This is the latest...a pretty peach dahlia,

with the words that 'Passion Changes Everything'.

Because I believe it does!
