Step by Step Guide:
In a small bowl, mix together sugar, cocoa powder, and hot water. Let it bloom for 10 minutes for a deeper chocolate taste.
Preheat your oven to 375°F.
In a large bowl, mix together the flour, salt, and baking powder.
Add eggs, vanilla, and buttermilk to the bowl and mix well.
Pour in the bloomed cocoa powder and blend until combined.
Pour the mixture into a 9x13 greased baking pan. Bake for 25-35 minutes, depending on your oven.
Allow to cool completely, remove from the pan, and place on a wire rack to dry for 1 hour.
Using a heart-shaped cookie cutter, cut out heart shapes from the cooled brownies.
Melt the chocolate and crisco together and dip each heart in the mixture.
Place on a wire rack to harden and sprinkle with Valentine's Day sprinkles while the chocolate is still wet.
Once the chocolate has hardened, enjoy!
