    Marshmallow Caramel Fudge

    September 26th, 2015

    It’s so easy. And so amazing. How will we be able to handle ourselves, knowing we can make this on a whim at any given time?  Like on a weeknight when all we have is 15 minutes but really want something cavity-and-diabetes-causing?  How will we refrain from making and inhaling it weekly? I know: Make […]

  • Chocolate Pecan Fudge

    Classic Chocolate Fudge

    December 31st, 2014

    A few weeks back when The Husband and I were moving into our new place (yes, the place where our glorious new oven decided not to work from Day 1, even though our inspector didn’t pick up on it and then the Fisher & Paykel guy who came out and said “it works just fine!” […]

  • Root Beer Float Fudge

    Root Beer Float Fudge

    December 10th, 2014

    Yes, this is totally possible and yes, this is totally amazing, so get out your candy thermometer and start cooking up some sugar to make this fudge instantly.  Here’s the deal: you make root beer flavored fudge (obviously), and then stir in marshmallows to basically recreate the whole float feel and taste.  Brilliant. Two Important Questions […]

  • Chocolate Fudge Cake

    Chocolate Fudge Cake

    November 12th, 2014

    I made this cake for my sister because I know she has a thing for chocolate cake.  In the morning. (I think she likes it best with vanilla frosting but she didn’t complain at 7am as we were rushing to get her into a cab to the airport on time.  Nope.  This went down quite well, […]

    Chocolate Truffle Sandwich Cookies

    April 16th, 2014

    Remember the Double Chocolate Buttermilk Cookies?  Yeah, well, these are them on crack. Cookies are exciting on their own, I full well realize.  But making a dessert out of two cookies and glueing them together with something as decadent as ganache, well, that’s another story.  Pull out a plate of pretty much any kind of cookie […]

    Penuche Pecan Fudge

    July 14th, 2013

    Making fudge is highly annoying but immensely rewarding.  (Kind of like I imagine what it would be like to have kids.) Who doesn’t like fudge?  (Crickets should be chirping, highlighting the silence associated with no one speaking up about not liking fudge.) And since we all like fudge, why not make it with brown sugar?  That’s the […]

  • Fudge-Studded Chocolate Cookie Brownie Bars

    Fudge-Stuffed Chocolate Cookie Brownie Bars

    March 9th, 2013

    This recipe isn’t for the faint of heart. But you didn’t come to this site without a serious sugar and chocolate addiction, though, did you?  Welcome, my friend. So picture this: a bottom layer of The World’s Greatest Fudge Brownie, followed by a layer of the Ultimate Chocolate Chocolate Chip Cookie with chunks of Bittersweet […]

  • Chocolate on Chocolate on Chocolate Bars

    May 19th, 2012

    If you haven’t figured it out, these bars have three layers of chocolate. Some might think it’s excessive to have three layers of cocoa goodness going on in one meager bar, but these are the people that we don’t want to associate with anyways. Bring on the layers, I say, and make them thick… so thick that a fork is helpful (but not necessary- you can be a pig and use your chocolate-covered fingers).

    Why three layers? I feel like I have been remiss in the chocolate department as of late, making sweets & treats for others that for some reason haven’t involved chocolate. I did attempt to use chocolate in the Mayan Brownies for May 5th, but they were aptly re-named Mistake-o do Mayo Brownies for good reason. So I was due for a successful chocolate spell.

    This is a true recipe for Chocoholics. Go for it. Indulge. Give in to the call of the chocolate on chocolate on chocolate. And good luck.

  • One of the Top 10 desserts, as voted by The Husband

    World’s Greatest Fudge Brownies

    February 1st, 2012

    It’s a big world out there. Stop the search- you’ve found The Bingeworthy Brownie.

    This is the brownie you’ve been waiting for.

    It’s fudgy, chewy, rich, dense, and sweet (but not cloyingly so, despite an admittedly profane amount of sugar).
    Although the epitome if what a fudgy brownie should be (ooey and gooey without sticking to the teeth), it’s still somehow appealing to the “I prefer a cakier brownie” type. (More Sweets Please rule of thumb- if you like a totally cakey brownie, you don’t like brownies. You like chocolate cake. Which is okay, but you must know that a fluffy brownie is a blasphemous brownie.)

  • Fudgy Orange Brownie Cake with Orange Cream Cheese Icing

    January 20th, 2012

    Planning a dinner party? Maybe a party of one (that being you)? Then you’ve found the dessert to serve.

    Chocolate and orange have been romantically involved for years, so it’s time to forge your own relationship with the two flavors. Take this oranged-up adaptation of the World’s Best Fudge Brownie and toss it into a cake pan… slather some orange cream cheese icing on top and watch the sparks fly.

    Oh- please note my newest serendipitous technique, as made evident in the photo. See where the icing snuck into the cake in an odd but strangely appealing way? Yeah well, keep reading and learn the trick of the More Sweets, Please trade :).
