hello. I'm making brownies, but i plan on saving most of them for about a week after i make them. Where should I store them? Note: I don't have a fridge or a freezer at my disposal, as i share those with my parents.

Put them in a sealed container and as cool a place as you can find. In a creek and bury with a couple rocks would work good.
Make them into "hard cookies"! Get a fan. Slice the brownies thinly. You want as much surface area as possible. Set the fan blowing on the brownie slices and let sit. Flip the slices. Repeat until you are way past certain that they are bone dry. They should keep. Mold needs moisture to grow. Stash them in a jar or tin.
I'd still check them the next day to make sure they were really dry- like you do bud when you first "jar" it for curing. Sometimes moisture is hidden inside the bud (or brownie ;) )!
You might want to throw a little bag of rice in with them to get any stray moisture. Just take a tissue/ bit of cloth put a tablespoon or so of rice in it close with a twist tie. This is what folks did before those little desiccant gel packs. I trust plain old rice near my stash- I'm not sure about silica gel.

thanks for your replies! Although I might not have enough time to make the hard "cookies", I will certainly keep that method in mind when I do have the time. I'm planning on storing the brownies in some glad tuppaware in a closet and hopefully they'll keep well, I dont think a week should be too long.:rastasmoke:
