How long can the brownies keep and where do I store them?
Brownies will last 3 to 4 days in an airtight container at room temperature and up to a week in the refrigerator. Brownies will last up to 3 months in the freezer, but if they stay frozen for a prolonged period, their taste and quality will begin to deteriorate.
