Rolo Brownie Bites with Caramel Cream Cheese Frosting

After a bit of thought we settled on making mini brownie bites stuffed with a Rolo candy and topped with a caramel cream cheese frosting. A perfect two bite treat, surprisingly not over-the-top sweet, adorable and YUM!! The brownie bites were very easy to make and Maisie and I had fun cooking together. But I think that Maisie’s favorite part was licking the spoon, she really got into her work.

Lookie at my Cookies: Peanut Butter Cup Brownies

I am convinced peanut butter and chocolate were made for each other, like Charlie and Claire on LOST–I’m only on Season 2 right now but someone please tell me they have gotten together. I find that a lot of my baked creations involve these two perfect ingredients because they are two of my favorite foods…they actually might be my MOST favorite foods. Needless to say, the combination of flavors when peanut butter and chocolate meet is heavenly. Salty meets sweet, mmm delicious. My Peanut Butter Cup Brownies were adapted from a recipe found on Bake or Break, I opted to use milk chocolate chips instead of the peanut butter chips for a little different flavor. Peanut Butter Cup Brownies Makes 1 dozen brownies 3/4 cup granulated sugar 1/4 cup butter, softened 1 tablespoon water 1 cup semi sweet chocolate chips, plus about 1/3 cup more for garnishing 1 large egg* 1/2 teaspoon vanilla Bon Eating,

Irish Beer Brownies With Mint Sour Cream Frosting

Although I will always favor local craft beer, I do harbor a soft spot for Ireland and their World Famous Brewery. Just out of college I scraped together enough money to put myself on a flight from LAX to Dublin. I landed in Ireland on a drizzly morning, jet lagged and confused. I had no idea where to go, or how to get there. Before I really knew what was happening, I was being dragged though the streets of Dublin by a charming Irishman, clad in a newsboy cap and green wool sweater. Although most of you will be breaking out the famous Irish Stout this weekend, I will be sticking with beer brewed a little closer to home.

I have been eye-balling this for sometime now every since I saw it on Pinterest. The cookie portion is dead-on like the kind of brownie I like—soft center, chewy edge, and chocolatey, but not so dense and fudge like that you need to guzzle milk to clear your throat of a chocolate coating. At the center of this brownie sandwich cookie is a caramel creme filling that lightens up the chocolate and gives the whole ensemble a cloud-like textural contrast. Brownie Sandwich Cookies with Salted Creme Filling So with Father’s Day today it was perfect timing. Along with that, the recipe is extremely fast to make and easy enough that the little guy could help me with it. Nutella Pretzel Brownies. I think you guys have gotten to know me pretty well over the last couple of years, but there are some things about me that I haven’t shared that I thought you should know. First, though, you know I love the Hubster and the kiddo and our little Lokmeister like there’s no tomorrow. I love to bake.

And cook. Obvs. I love DIY projects, crafts, and sewing. White Bean Blondies (Page 2) I’m an ardent admirer of recipes that incorporate surprising ingredients (by that I mean surprising nutritious ingredients, not like a super ball in my pie).
