Not sure about you, but brownies are one of my favorite treats. Here in Michigan, we have countless bakeries with amazing brownies, but one stands above the rest, according to a new study.

The folks at Eat This, Not That! set out to find the best brownies in the U.S., including in Michigan. In the article, the publication pointed out that the brownie “made its first appearance in the 1896 edition of the Boston Cooking School Cookbook by the famed Fannie Farmer. Ever since then brownies have been gracing bakeshop dessert cases and kitchen counters with their unbelievable flavor and unforgettable texture. And we can understand why—just one bite and you are hooked.”

So, what's the best place to get a brownie in Michigan? For the Love of Sugar in Detroit. "For the Love of Sugar owner, Manal, merges his Middle Eastern roots with his love of sugar to create a delicious variety of sweets and treats that are truly one of a kind. Make sure to try out one of the shop's homemade brownies, which pairs magnificently with an order of iced Ghirardelli mocha," the publication states. Yum!
