Mama's Chocolate Cake with Chocolate Glaze and Bacon « Appleton Desserts

The two people in my life that give me the most inspiration are my parents! Both of them do not bake, but they have a BIG sweet tooth, like me. My mom is definitely the kitchen queen and my dad is the grill king, but desserts are not really in their book of tricks. Although my mom is not much of a baker, there IS one cake that topped them all. I always asked for this cake, for every birthday and she always made it for bake sales. My mom makes this cake in a Bundt pan, which you can do. BUTTTTTTTTTT ….. If you do not want the glaze or bacon, make this cake like my mom does. My amazing inspiration and strength Preheat your oven to 350 degrees Line your cupcake tins (makes about 22 cupcakes) Bake 6 strips of bacon at 350 degrees until cooked and crispy. Cake - 1 box of devil’s food cake mix - 1 package of chocolate pudding mix - 8 ounces of sour cream - ½ cup of water - ½ cup of vegetable oil - ¼ cup of coffee liquor (or strong chilled brewed coffee) - 3 eggs Glaze.

Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough Brownies. Brownies are sort of like cheesecake, aren’t they?

Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough Brownies

There’s nothing better than the perfect dense, fudgy brownie, just like not much can beat a classic piece of creamy cheesecake. Yet with both of these desserts we’re always fiddling around with different versions, swirling things in and layering things on the top and the bottom (incidentally, peanut butter goes well with both!). It’s an endless merry go round of dessert experimentation, where there really can never be a bad result. Feel free to check out all of my brownie recipes and cheesecake recipes to see how many times I have spun around this little kitchen carousel.

When I first saw these over on RecipeGirl I stopped in my tracks. You know how milk and cookies go well together? Back to the merry-go-round to do more kitchen experiments! Food Pyramid Submissions. Death By Oreo Cupcakes.

They are probably the best Oreo cakes I have ever tried.

Death By Oreo Cupcakes

A lot of cake's that I have experimented with before are like a vanilla cake with bits of Oreo in them, which didn't really give them enough Oreo flavor. But these were a lot better. I used a dark chocolate fudge cake mix instead of just a regular chocolate cake mix, which went really well with the cookies and gave the cakes just a little more flavor. So, in this recipe there is Oreo's in the cake, in the frosting, and at the bottom is a Oreo surprise. That's right, you put a whole Oreo at the bottom of the cake. Ingredients 1 package Oreo Cookies, regular size 1 package Mini Oreo Cookies, for decoration (optional) 1 package chocolate cake mix (mix according to directions on box) 8 ounces cream cheese, room temperature 1/2 cup butter (1 stick), room temperature 3 3/4 cups powdered sugar 1 teaspoon vanilla extract cupcake liners Preheat oven to 350 degrees.

Not any more. Picky Palate. The Londoner: Slutty Brownies. Now I don’t want to over sell this, so I’m going to be conservative and simply say, that these are… The Best Brownies In The WORLD.

The Londoner: Slutty Brownies

I know, big statement. They’re called Slutty Brownies because they’re oh so easy, and more than a little bit filthy. They’re best served warm from the oven, with good quality vanilla ice cream (devastatingly I didn’t have any in the freezer this time, so I guess I’ll just have to make them again). They take about 45mins to make, including baking time. The ultimate comfort food, whipped up within the hour. You will need… The Londoner: Slutty Brownies. Design Crush & Popsicles!
