Easy Vegan Pumpkin Cake With Shaved Chocolate

Fast, easy, fairly-healthy cake recipe. This is great for cutting and wrapping individual servings and storing in the refrigerator for 2 weeks! Note: this is much better with chocolate shavings than chips because the fat from the chocolate is able to melt into and give richness to this otherwise low-fat cake. -- posted by michellehauser

Yummiest Chewy Coconut Cranberry Bars

Mon, 29 Dec 2008 23:41:52 -0500

The aroma of coconut, almond extract, sugar and egg baking in the oven is enough to make my salivary glands happy. The added tanginess of the dried cranberries and slight crunchiness of the almond nibs are a bonus on top of all that yummy goodness. This recipe is my own concoction. If you have a very sweet tooth, increase the sugar content by 2 tablespoons for the base. -- posted by RotiJala

Cream Cheese Swirl Brownies

Tue, 06 Jan 2009 00:01:51 -0500

The most perfect brownie recipe I have ever made. They're soft, yet sturdy and the perfect amount of chocolate- not to sweet or rich... just right. And, wonderful presentation, too! I would be proud to serve these to company any day!! One warning, the pan size specified is uncommon and not one that I own. I use a 15 1/2 x 10 1/2 pan and bake them for 35-40 minutes. They are done when set in the middle- do not let get brown on top. -- posted by Munchkin Mama

Chocolate and Cherry Brownies

Fri, 23 Jan 2009 16:58:31 -0500

These heavenly brownies are quick, easy and totally indulgent. They are perfect at tea-time or equally delicious served with crème fraîche as a treat after lunch or dinner with friends. Make sure you use the correct size baking or roasting tin and take care not to overcook them. As a rule, when you start to smell them they are usually close to being done: you are better off removing them too soon and putting them back, which does them no harm at all! Try adding nuts or other dried fruits as an alternative to the cherries, or make plain chocolate brownies without any extras at all. -- posted by English_Rose

I got this from a box of Pillsbury Cheesecake Swirl Brownie Mix. This is so easy (most Brownies-in-a-box are, don't you think?) and OH...SO...SCRUMPTIOUS!

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)

Chocolate Peanut Butter Blondies

Mon, 09 Mar 2009 11:44:19 -0400

Chocolate-y peanut-buttery goodness! These bar cookies will definitely satisfy your sweet tooth! I found this recipe in America's Test Kitchen's Family Baking Book. I wanted to make their Recipe #343983 but didn't have unsweetened chocolate on hand, so I decided to try something else for my chocolate-peanut butter fix. The Test Kitchen suggests letting the blondies cool for 2 hours before removing from the pan. Ha ha - as if anybody could wait that long! They are also most delicious when slightly warm. So I wait only 1 hour, just enough time for them to cool and firm up a bit before removing from the pan. -- posted by appleydapply

1 Minute, No Bake, Cereal Bar

Mon, 09 Mar 2009 16:05:53 -0400

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 Burgz

Perfect for St. Patrick's Day, and it feeds an army! This recipe is from America's Best Church Supper Recipes/Taste of Home from Helen Baines of Elkton, Maryland. She says they get moister if they are left in the refrigerator for a day or two before serving if you can leave them alone that long. They are very rich but delicious. I couldn't find mint chocolate chips so I used Andes Mints instead. I also found it needed a little more cooking time, but that may vary by altitude and your stove.

Dreamy Peanut Butter, Banana & Oatmeal Elvis Bars

Sun, 22 Mar 2009 03:04:31 -0400

The generous amount of Peanut Butter makes these bars taste rich and creamy, the banana keeps it *ultra* moist and takes on a mellow background flavor, and the oatmeal holds it all together PLUS some chocolate thrown in for good measure :) These are better the next day, don't contain and eggs or flour, and are a good way to use up some ripe bananas! -- posted by roweena

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

Gooey Butter Bars

Sat, 06 Jun 2009 02:00:14 -0400

These bars are awesome, good for any occasion. They are very rich, even though you can only eat a few at a time, I've seen people manage to get half the pan down. I don't know if anyone has seen or had these bars but my mom made them for me when I was a kid and I have no idea where she got it from, but they are to good to wonder. Make it exactly as it says or it won't come out right. This is so not hard to make even though it might seem that way just reading it, try it you won't be sorry. Enjoy for any occassion. -- posted by Chef #1172768

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

Joe Bars (Chocolate Granola Bars)

Sun, 19 Jul 2009 15:59:16 -0400

These granola bars are attributed to "Joe", a trail guide and vet at the Wintergreen resort (or so my faded, printed recipe tells me). In any case, I cannot claim this recipe to be my own, but it is a keeper. I have a batch of these Joe Bars ready at all times (and they freeze well too). -- posted by Holly301

Snickerdoodle Blondies

Sun, 09 Aug 2009 21:44:44 -0400

I've seen this recipe on several food blogs and was obsessed with them. Being a big fan of Snickerdoodle cookies, I knew the moment I saw these I had to give them a whirl. 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! I have not seen this recipe on Zaar, so I am posting it here to share! -- posted by Vseward (Chef~V)

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

Thu, 20 Aug 2009 02:18:02 -0400

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! Again, the gals at Taste of Home get all the credit--Aug/Sep '09. -- posted by Debber

No-Bake Lemon Slice

Mon, 24 Aug 2009 02:16:41 -0400

This no-bake slice can be made in a just a few minutes, although it does need time to set before it is ready to be eaten. NOT for those who don't like lemons but for the rest of the world, great for lunch boxes, picnics or potlucks! Another recipe I've adapted from one I found on the Simply Great Meals website. The conversions you may need: 125g = 4oz; 400g = just under 13oz; 250g = 8oz. Marie biscuits are a plain sweet biscuit. You could also use Granita biscuits or shortbreads. You could -- posted by bluemoon downunder

London's Borough Market Chocolate Brownies

Fri, 18 Sep 2009 10:50:00 -0400

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
