Brownies & Bars
Don’t think these bars aren’t fantastically wonderful just because the picture looks sort of unappetizing. (I haven’t figured out how to take a decent picture yet in the blinding light of our new[ish] kitchen, so all my photos as of late look, well, on the verge of gross. And let’s be honest, bakers. It doesn’t […]

Tart but sweet. Smooth but crunchy. Limey but nutty. (Okay, I’ll quit it with the this but that routine.) All you need to know is this: make these. Yeah, I could have just gone the Classic Key Lime Pie route, which is always a fantastic “more, please!” way to go when you feel like juicing key […]

The Greeks knew what they were doing. In addition to a building a couple of buildings that some could call architecturally significant, they created the Greek salad (the real Greek salad, not the North Americanized version with lettuce that you get in a mall food court), and most important of all, they created baklava. (I assume it […]

It happened. I was in a seminar the other week and my mind drifted towards brownies (as it usually does, especially when in seminars about things like accountability and execution and other scintillating business topics). I was thinking about the half-baked batch of Buttery Blondies that I had wrapped up in the freezer, wondering what […]

I have been cutting corners in the kitchen lately, what with the move and all. I’ve been on the lookout for quick and easy recipes… things I don’t have to proof, rise, roll, or stick a candy thermometer into. I’ve been returning to tried-and-true classics (like my brownies which I can make with my eyes […]

Blondies are really just chocolateless brownies, aren’t they? Before you say “why bother” in response to a dessert made without chocolate- because you’re obsessed with it and have a problem- let me tell you that I understand your trepidation. But I think this recipe will expose you to a delectable world outside of the cocoa […]

Some of you might find this disgusting, but for those of you who don’t (my kind of reader), cheers to an over-abundance of frosting. I know your type. You’re the one that angles for the corner piece of a big square birthday cake when it’s being sliced at a horrible office party, because it’s all […]

I keep stunning myself with brownie possibilities. Not just any brownie, though- The World’s Greatest Fudge Brownie. But you knew I was going to say that. I have already made 753 different flavor variations to the brownie recipe (remember the Bailey’s Irish Cream ones? Oh, and what about the Panko and Sea Salt Crunch […]

…if you had this apron. You’ll have the recipe to The World’s Greatest Fudge Brownies handy dandy, and you’ll be able to refer to it while simply glancing down while you’re in the midst of baking said brownies. Because the recipe is printed upside down. I know, I know. It’s unbelievable. All that for only $23.99. I aim […]

These bars are really quite innocent, even though they look like a one way ticket to diet hell. Other than the chocolate, which isn’t exactly purely evil (antioxidants- hello?), the bars are made with healthy things like oats (keeping More Sweets, Please readers regular), peanut butter (protein-packed), peanuts (protein again, but with a crunch), honey […]

I know, I know. I have been on a peanut butter craze as of late, and if you’re sick of the PB and chocolate combo, then I’m heartily sorry. If, on the other hand, you’re a normal person, and you lick your lips at the thought of both fantastically wonderful ingredients forced together into […]

I’m excited by these bars. You might say that I am excited by all bars, which wouldn’t be entirely wrong (remember the Lemon Bars? Or the Cherry Chew Bars? Or the Fudge-Stuffed Chocolate Cookie Brownie Bars, which I had almost forgotten about?). Yeah, I do have a thing for bars. And now I have a […]

Let’s get this over with upfront: I’d like to apologize to anyone who doesn’t live in Canada, because a key ingredient in this recipe is a mainstay on Canadian supermarket shelves, but elusive to Americans. The Brits- I think you’re screwed too. Not sure about anyone else out there. You can totally get this important […]

Don’t be afraid. I know it sounds strange. But have I ever led you astray? (Other than in my series of disasters, like the Unforgiveable BLANDies, which were supposed to be amazing White Chocolate Cashew Blondies if I remembered to add the sugar.) But let’s digress from my little kitchen indiscretions. Let’s focus on your newest […]

You’re the type of person who either loves the whole sweet & salty combo, or who couldn’t care less. Let me tell you- this post is for my fellow friends who love a good dash of salt to balance the massive quantities of sweet. As I’ve said before- how can you know what’s sweet […]

I feel a little bit bad about something. I feel like I have been a little too focused on chocolate as of late (like the Tunnel of Fudge Cake, and the Brownie Scrap Pile. Oh, and the Irish Cream Chocolate Mousse, don’t forget that one). I’m so not apologizing- I know it’s fundamentally wrong to […]

Sometimes life needs to be easier, doesn’t it? I have a way to do that and still enjoy it fully while indulging in the pleasures of rich, dense, fudgy chocolate. With whipped cream. And ice cream. And maybe chocolate sauce just for fun. Here’s the scoop: make a batch of the World’s Best Fudge Brownies, and cut […]

These bars are schizophrenic. One one hand, they’re all “oooh, I’m a dessert, all soft and chocolately and chewy”, and then the next minute they’re all “respect me because I’ve got whole wheat in me, and powdered peanut butter which is fat-free and yet still fantastically tasty”. Can a dessert be crave-worthy and low-fat/high-fiber at the […]
