I think the notes people include in their recipes make them more personal. If I write a note myself about a recipe, it will always be written in purple.

Brownie Flag

This gorgeous dessert is perfect for a summer party.
You could use sliced strawberries for the red stripes, but I think
raspberries are perfect.

Ingredients:

2 (8"x 8" size) packages brownie mix
1/2 cup water
2/3 cup vegetable oil
2 eggs
1 (16-ounce) can cream cheese frosting
1 (16-ounce) can white frosting
1/2 cup blueberries
3 cups raspberries

Preparation:

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
Spray a 9x13" pan with nonstick cooking spray containing flour.
In large bowl, combine brownie mixes, water, vegetable oil, and eggs and
beat for 50 strokes.
Bake for 35-40 minutes or until brownies are just set.
Do not overbake.
Cool completely on wire rack.
Frost brownies with both cans of frosting, using the cream cheese
frosting first, then the white frosting and smooth top.
Using blueberries, make the 'stars' in the upper left hand corner of the
brownies.
Using raspberries, make the 'stripes'.
Cut into squares to serve.

Serves 16-20
