Get out your mixing bowls, aprons, and Grandma's secret recipe 'cause we're announcing a new event for this years Rocktoberfest: The Brownie Bake-Off.
The rules are simple:
1. Bake delicious brownies. Enough to share.
2. Drop them at the festival site Saturday before dinner. We'll take one from the plate for judging and the rest we'll be a "donation" which will be given out to hungry festival go-ers as part of dinner.
3. An elite panel of french-culinary-school-trained judges will bestow honors and accolades on those of you possessing the "art of the brownie".
4. Awards given for most awesome creation.
5. No Funny business. This is a fundraiser and needs to be family friendly.
Thanks all,
Matt
P.S. This setup may evolve as we get closer to Rfest2011, but I wanted to get the word out ASAP.

If you had a cookie contest, I would win.

If it really were cookies, I would win, but that is beside the point.

Why? I promise to be a thorough judge. If I am not sure after one cookie, I will go back, until I am absolutely sure.

If your interpretation of a brownie is a cookie, than by all means enter. We're a very inclusive group when it comes to sweets.

Only 3 days! I also wanted to clarify 1 point: there is NOT a fee to enter the Brownie Bake Off. However, you DO need to bring an entire pan of brownies to enter in the competition (equivalent to an entire 13x9x2 in pan).
