Hey there! Thinking outside the baking box, huh? Using olive oil instead of butter for brownies is totally doable! Some folks swear by it for a healthier twist and that subtle fruity flavor. Just remember, olive oil's a bit lighter than butter, so you might need to adjust your recipe a smidge for texture. Give it a try and see how those brownies turn out!
