Dark chocolate and raspberry brownie tarts
I love brownies and make them quite often, so when I saw these little beauties on one of my Donna Hay magazines I had to make them: raspberries are naturally tart and taste wonderful with chocolate, not to mention that the brownies looked adorable shaped as tartlets. The recipe is really easy to prepare and if you're having people over I am sure these tartlets would impress your guests; I also
Fruit mince brownies
The fruit mince tarts I made a couple of years ago were delicious and such a hit with the family that I intend to make them again this year; however, rolling out pastry is not the best idea for the oh, so hot days we’ve been having here lately – I know how much I suffered to make the snowy tree cookies, having to refrigerate the dough countless times. While I wait for a bit cooler days –
Marzipan brownies
I might be someone who loves sweets (and this blog is proof of that), but even I know there’s a certain limit to be considered: to avoid the risk of eating the marzipan left from the berry muffins I set up to find other delicious recipes to use the marzipan in, and after reading something about a chocolate marzipan cake somewhere – I am getting old and I don’t remember where, sorry – I thought
Chocolate chip brownie double-deckers
Being someone who always has trouble choosing what to prepare, these double deckers were the perfect solution to my baking conundrum: two different layers, two delicious baked goods in one. To make things even better, the recipe is easy to put together and yields a lot, being great for sharing – they disappeared from the office quite fast the other day... :)
The recipe comes from a cookbook I
Pecan praliné brownies + "Drive" - one of the best movies I've seen in my entire life
I watched the trailer for “Drive” many, many months ago and after that I just could not stop thinking about it: the movie had an aura similar to some classic movies from the 1970s I deeply love – “The French Connection”, “Taxi Driver”, and “The Godfather” instantly came to my mind – while its pink neon letters and music had a 1980s feel. I had a good feeling about this movie and the award
Nigella’s everyday brownies
These are called “everyday brownies” but that doesn’t mean you can eat them every day – that would be nice, though. ;) Or you can just pretend you never read my post and eat them on a daily basis – who am I to judge, anyway?
For some reason the chocolate chips sank to the bottom of the pan, but let me assure you that it did not make much difference as far as flavor is concerned – it just
Lacy coconut-topped brownies + "Cowboys & Aliens"
My sister and I went to the movies to watch “Cowboys & Aliens” last Saturday; I thought it was a fun movie – nothing huge and it won’t become part of my list, but as someone said on Twitter the movie brings Han Solo/Indiana Jones and 007 together – and that, to me, is definitely a bonus. :)
My sister, on the other hand, did not like the movie; luckily there is something she absolutely loved:
Caramel brownies and changing my mind in a matter of moments
One of my cooking/baking pet peeves – and I have several – is that I hate it when I choose a certain recipe and it says there that there will be some frosting/filling/whatever left: it immediately puts me off making it because I know that the frosting/filling/whatever will probably go to waste.
After much delay I decided to make these brownies – even though there would be caramel sauce left.
Peanut butter brownies + your comments on a certain post
I’ve been thinking about the comments you left on my post about Gwyneth Paltrow’s cookbook and thought I might have been misunderstood by some: I agree with the fact that some people are naturally thin and can eat tons of food without gaining 1 single pound – I have cousins and friends that way. Nothing against those people – I wish I were one of them! :D
And I don’t think that one has to be
Classic unsweetened chocolate brownies
My sister has a lot of friends, and that really makes me happy – I would never wish on her the lonely teenage years I had; some of her friends know I have a food blog and a couple of them read me from time to time.
A while ago I gave my sister and one of her friends a lift somewhere – the girl entered the car, my sister introduced us and then she very bluntly said: “I would love to have a
Cheesecake swirl chocolate brownies
I’ve been on a White Rabbit vibe these days – feeling terrible late with lots of things to do before I’m officially on vacation.
I’ll leave you with these brownies while I try to deal with my chaotic day. :)
