chocolate peppermint brownies {recipe} #rethinkwhatyoudrink

Our family tries to eat as healthy as we can. We eat lots of fruits, vegetables & whole grains. Recently we’ve also tried Silk Soy Milk. Silk Soy Milk is great milk alternative because it gives you as much calcium as milk, is very low in saturated fat and is 100% cholesterol-free. Silk Soy Milk is also 100% lactose & dairy free. So it’s great if you have those kinds of allergies. #rethinkwhatyoudrink

A few months ago I shared one of our favorite smoothie recipes made with Silk Fruit & Protein. Yummy!  Every time we go by the diary case my 3 year old wants me to buy some more!  He loves it. Recently I found out you can even cook with Silk Soy Milk!  I don’t know why I’ve never thought of that before, so I was eager to try it out.  Today I’d love to show you how I made this yummy chocolate peppermint brownies with Silk Soy Milk.
