TEQUILA BROWNIES: National Tequila Day!

Today is National Tequila Day! Have a shot of Tequila, or, better still, make these fabulously rich Tequila Brownies.

I used Reposado Tequila in this recipe. Reposado or "rested" Tequila is aged in wood tanks or casks for a minimum of 2 months. The higher-quality Reposados are aged from 3-9 months. Reposado tequila has a full flavor and is the best-selling Tequila in Mexico and can be either 100% agave or mixto. Of course, you can use whatever Tequila you have on hand.
