Peanut Butter & Fudge Brownies

Sun, 01 Feb 2009 12:47:35 -0500

These are very rich and decadent brownies from baking maven Dorie Greenspan and printed in Bon Appétit Magazine (January 2007). For a smoother texture, you can put the peanuts in the frosting, omit them entirely, or replace them with peanut butter chips. There are a few steps to follow, but it really is a simple recipe and so worth it! You'll want to cut these very small. -- posted by blucoat

Chewy, Loaded, Oatmeal, Peanut Butter Bar "cookies"

Wed, 04 Feb 2009 17:40:44 -0500

I came up with these last night, and am so pleasantly surprised at the result! I wasn't in the mood (or didn't have time) to do the cookie thing, so I decided to make a bar cookie, but had a hard time finding a recipe that had the ingredients that I had in mind, so I came up with my own. These are also good for breakfast and have wholesome ingredients, although admittedly not low in fat. You can vary this to your own personal taste by adding any kind of chopped dried fruit and/or nuts, and of course you could add chocolate pieces as well. These were easy to make, and didn't take a lot of time. ** See peanut allergy note below! -- posted by Yrhaven (aka Condiment Queen)

My pantry is running very low on baking supplies, but I had a box of raisin-bran cereal that had too many raisins that I wanted to use up. So, I chose to adapt my other recipe: Recipe #357474 using what I had on hand. I think this turned out really nice and entirely different from the original version. I used peanut-hazelnut butter instead of peanut butter. -- posted by Génial Génie

Samoas Bars - Just Like the Girl Scout Cookies!

Mon, 30 Mar 2009 18:22:37 -0400

These bars are an easy-to-make copycat version of the coconut/caramel/chocolate/shortbread Girl Scout cookie that seem to come less and less to a box every year... maybe it's just me... I LOVE these cookies - I have been an addict since I was in the Girl Scouts at age 5, and upon first bite I knew these bars and I would have a long, loving relationship (when I'm not at the gym frantically trying to elliptical away the evidence of my coconut-caramel love affair). :) NOTE: Prep time includes cooling time. -- posted by Greeny4444

Exceptional Passover Brownies

Mon, 13 Apr 2009 15:52:14 -0400

This recipe is from Claire Sauerhoff, pastry chef and owner of a New York bakery called "The Exceptional Brownie". Her bakery won COPIA'S "Best Darn Brownie Contest". To achieve a fudgy result, be careful that you don't overbake the brownies. After 35 minutes, begin to test for doneness with a cake tester or a toothpick that you stick in the middle of the pan. You're looking for the tester to come out with just a little batter on the end. -- posted by blucoat

My friend Alexis gave me this recipe and I loved it! These granola bars are great if you love granola, but want something that is fresh and all-natural. Additionally, they are a lot cheaper than buying the Natural and Organic bars in the stores. They can even be made vegan by substituting the honey for pure maple syrup.

One-Bowl Ooey Gooey Peanut Butter Chip Blondies

Wed, 17 Jun 2009 14:20:13 -0400

This one's for the "undercooked cookies are the best" crowd. Well, I suppose I'll allow you to cook them all the way if you like. :) I've tweaked this recipe a bit to get it to the point that it's no fuss, and can even be done in one bowl. No messy scooping around in the peanut butter jar; this one uses peanut butter chips instead. You can substitute other types of chips if you like - chocolate, white chocolate, butterscotch, etc. -- posted by ItalianMama

Fruit Cocktail Lunch Box Bars

Lunchboxes aren't just for kids anymore. They also belong to hard-working people who like to "brown bag" their midday meal (or supper, in the case of late shift workers). These cookie bars don't need to be limited to the lunchbox. They're perfect with a glass of icy cold milk. From an old newspaper clipping. -- posted by Molly53

British Fig Rolls - Almost Better Than Shop Bought!

Sun, 12 Jul 2009 09:47:22 -0400

This is a recipe I found many years ago for authentic Fig Rolls, and they are almost better than the shop bought variety, much though I love the commercial ones! Try to roll out the pastry as thinly as possible, other than that, this recipe is a breeze to make. Fig rolls are a much-loved "biscuit" from my childhood days and I make them whenever I can as I now live in France, as we cannot get them here. Fig rolls are great for a mid-morning snack with a cuppa as well as being ideal for school lunchboxes, picnics, gifts and afternoon tea. (I have posted this recipe on Zaar especially for Lalaloula, who asked about a fig roll recipe in the British forum.) -- posted by French Tart

What impressed me most about this recipe was that it was super basic, no need to run out and buy anything special, just raid your fridge and pantry and bake away! These are super easy to make and will have your house smelling heavenly in 10 minutes. These bars go great with a cup of piping hot coffee! Now get obsessed with these bars and get to baking! My hats off to Julia of Dozen Flours who created this new favorite of my family and friends :) Now everyone asks me for the recipe!

Bake Sale Time: Rice Krispies W/ Malted Milk Ball Bars

Here's one to add to your bake sale repertoire--and they'll be just enough different [but still the same thing] to get the kids curious, and good enough that they'll sell like "hot cakes!" Save a couple for the home-folks, because you won't be bringing any home when you take these to the potluck or family reunion picnic! I use two bowls (recycle the first one) so I have everything ready to pour and mix--goes much quicker and no wasting time to measure when the stuff is hot!

This uses gluten free brown rice cereal. It can also be dairy free if you sub. margarine for the butter. Kids liked this. It does not stay together as well as regular Rice Krispy treats, but I don't think anything will that doesn't have melted marshmallows!

London's Borough Market Chocolate Brownies

Borough market brownie-maker Matt Jones shared his infamous dense chocolate brownie recipe on BBC Good Food, and I am posting it here for safe-keeping! For anyone who has tasted one of these brownies, the experience is sublime.......deep, intense and chewy brownies that are packed full of lucious chocolate! Borough Market is London's oldest food market, its origins date back from the time when the Romans built the original London Bridge. And, although it has moved from where it was originally established, Borough Market has occupied its current site for the last 250 years. You can find both food and non-food items in this market, but locals regularly go here to get fresh produce from various parts of the British Isles. One of the most popular foodie treats in the market, is the ostrich burger, as well as these delicious brownies. Makes 12 LARGE squidgy brownies. -- posted by French Tart

Asa Ransom House Brownie Mania

Sat, 24 Oct 2009 03:13:32 -0400

In 1799, the Holland Land Company offered lots 10 miles apart in what is now Clarence, New York, to "any proper man who would build and operate a tavern upon it". A young silversmith named Asa Ransom, had been plying his trade in the little fur trading post on the shores of Lake Erie. He was among the first to accept this opportunity and in the hollow of the ledge, near a pine grove, built a log home & tavern. In 1803, he built a grist mill, the first in Erie County. Over time, the business has evolved into a charming inn noted for it's authenticity, hospitality and cuisine. -- posted by Molly53

Mon, 28 Dec 2009 15:42:41 -0500

1. To give you that extra energy boost if you are one of those crazy boxing day shoppers! 2. Great recipe to make from leftover Halloween or Christmas candy or pick up the ingredients cheap on Boxing Day! This is my adaptation from a recipe originally published in Better Homes and Gardens... Feel free to substitute candies and let me know if it works (I'm thinking Snickers, chocolate covered cranberries, crushed oreo cookies... endless possibilities!) -- posted by Tanya Pants

Julie's Pecan Caramel Bars

Tue, 29 Dec 2009 02:02:49 -0500

These are so good, they've been the hit of the party everywhere I take them. Inspired by PanNan's recipe #37846, but tweaked a bit to suit my family's preference. (I can't tell any difference between baker's chocolate and chocolate chips, but evidently my family can.) -- posted by puppitypup

Cream Cheese Brownies

Cream Cheese lends itself to a moist and chewy brownie that's finger licking good. -- posted by Chef #465890

White Choc & Raspberry 'cheesecake' Finger Biscuits --- Mmmm

Tue, 05 Jan 2010 11:19:20 -0500

These are really great luxury biscuits. Simple to accomplish but just perfect for a night in, picnic, kids lunch boxes or to show off at the next coffee morning! ;P I usually make these in an 8x8 square tin and (when done) cut into 8 long strips, then half each strip - i.e. you should end up with 16: 1 inch wide x 4 inches long, fingers. If you cannot find any freeze dried raspberry pieces then you can use just the sauce for the biscuit, but use an extra teaspoon to get the flavouring. Enjoy! -- posted by JinxTheCat

Double Chocolate Brownie

Thu, 14 Jan 2010 12:11:55 -0500

I found this brownie recipe on the back of a container of cocoa. After trying it, I cut it out and taped it into my cookbook. Unfortunately I don't know the brand of cocoa where this recipe came from. Quick and easy, this brownie recipe has single-handedly stopped me from buying box mixes. I've never done the chipotle chili powder with the nuts, but the cinnamon adds a delicious element either way. -- posted by CorianneW

Sour Cream Brownies

Mon, 18 Jan 2010 01:42:37 -0500

From The Ultimate Brownie Book. Although decadent to the nth degree, these brownies are actually light because the sour cream leavens that batter, causing them to rise up high in the pan. They will stay fresh for four days. They can be wrapped in wax paper, sealed in a freezer-safe bag, and frozen for up to 4 months. -- posted by BB2011

Blonde Chocolate Chip Brownies

Thu, 21 Jan 2010 16:57:43 -0500

This is from Southern Living's The Southern Living Cookbook. I almost always double the reicpe and bake in either a 9x13" or half sheet pan. Also, I have replaced the flour/baking soda/salt with self rising flour with fine results. These freeze well. -- posted by SuzV

Sugar Cookie Fruit Pizza

Sun, 24 Jan 2010 21:49:05 -0500

This is one of my favorite desserts! I love to make this for BBQ's or showers. I doesn't last long so I always make two and keep one at home so my DH doesn't pout :) Enjoy! -- posted by Rollin in the Dough!

Fat Free Dark Chocolate Caramel Brownies

My husband and I love this recipe! They are the best warm with a scoop of fat free frozen vanilla yogurt on top! -- posted by Me'Shell

The Best Peanut Butter Chocolate Brownies

Mon, 01 Feb 2010 16:17:36 -0500

YUM... there is only this one word to describe these. Yum. I've adapted this from a brownie mix when I was in need of a peanut butter chocolate fix! Preparation time includes chilling. -- posted by Melissainthekitchen

Orange Brownies

Thu, 04 Feb 2010 10:09:39 -0500

A woman named Brenda Jacobson gave out this recipe at a church activity, and I snatched it right up! So wonderful, easy, and different. At brunches I'll serve this alongside a mint brownie for a different selection and it gets rave reviews. My kids even prefer these over the original. -- posted by Chef Lindsay
