The Fudgiest Fleur de Sel Brownies

The fudgiest brownies you will ever eat topped with fleur de sel are rich, decadent and completely satisfying. These brownies are, what I like to call, a piece of ultimate chocolate bliss. They are thick and ultra fudgy, studded with chocolate chips, layered with a naturally crackly top and sprinkled with fleur de sel. They…

Fudgy Brownies with Fluffy Vanilla Buttercream

Posted on February 3, 2016

Super thick and fudgy brownies covered in bakery-style vanilla frosting. A great alternative to cake for a celebration. I’ve talked in the past about how, as a kid, I never wanted traditional birthday cake. For years my first choice dessert was a Baskin-Robbins’ ice cream pie followed by brownies as a close second. Cookie cake…

The fudgiest brownies with a hint of mocha and touch of salt to kick any chocolate craving in the butt. Kind of like my beloved blondies, it’s been too long since I’ve made brownies. I know it’s summer and time for light fruit desserts or frozen ice cream treats, but all I wanted last week…

Fudgy brownie topped with a creamy layer of peanut butter banana cheesecake! Sometimes you just have to go back to your roots.

Well, I think I am officially old. My 28th birthday is on Tuesday and while I know that in the big picture that really isn't old, I certainly feel it.  After a late night out in the city last night, my body is just begging for a day of rest.  A big difference from when…

Fudgy Brownie Crunch Banana Ice Cream Pie

Posted on June 19, 2012

I was talking to some friends a few weeks ago about working out, eating healthy, etc.  For as long as I remember I’ve worked out hard most days of the week and watched what I ate 80% of the time. But when I started running a bakery full-time, things changed.  My days got longer and…

Fudgy Double Crème de Menthe Brownies

Posted on April 22, 2012

Saturday was a case of “I have a few hours in the kitchen to make non-KISD desserts, how much can I bake for the blog and how fast?” Of course I had another reason to bake, other than for Matt to have three cupcakes as an afternoon snack.  And the reason wasn’t to give me…

Fun Pick-Up Desserts for Super Bowl

Posted on February 2, 2012

It’s Thursday before Super Bowl and you’ve probably seen so many versions of buffalo chicken dip that your head is about to explode with hot sauce.  I love the traditional salty/creamy/fried/cheesy items as much as the next person, but it doesn’t mean that we can forget about dessert.  So for those of you looking for…

Salted Caramel and Brownie Cheesecake Bars

Posted on November 17, 2011

This dessert has been haunting me since it came out of the oven.  I took photos yesterday morning and it was all I could do not to devour the entire pan, sliver by sliver.  These cheesecake bars are not for me so unfortunately (or fortunately) I was forced to keep my mouth shut after a…

Peanut Butter Cup Cookie Dough Brownie Bites

Posted on November 13, 2011

Fudgy brownie bites stuffed with a layer of peanut butter cup cookie dough The apartment is finally starting to feel like home.  It isn’t because I unpacked 99% of my things (the other 1% includes books and underwear that is still MIA).  It also is not because we finally have shelves in the closet so…

Individual S’mores Brownies

Posted on August 7, 2011

You may or may not be on s’mores overload.  For some reason, as many recipes as I’ve seen that put s’mores in some form of cookie/brownie/rice krispie treat, etc. it just doesn’t get old. So of course when I was putting together some baked good packages for a friend I had to include something s’mores. …

Cajun Brownies with Potato Chips

I’m so excited to share a guest post from Lynn at The Actor’s Diet.  I like to think of her as a celebrity blog friend:-)  Lynn documents her daily eats and her life in LA so well that readers feel like they know her.  Although she enjoys dessert, she doesn’t normally do a ton of…

Brownies for Breakfast?

Posted on June 23, 2011

Do these brownies look gooey enough to you? They did to me too… …at 8:30 this morning. What, you don't eat brownies for breakfast?  Yeah, me neither.  I actually eat a wonderfully healthy breakfast every morning; think yogurt, oatmeal, fruit and peanut butter in some combination or another.  It is actually my favorite meal and…

Brownie Cheesecake Insanity

Posted on May 10, 2011

Let’s talk about this dessert. Let’s talk about how many emails my mom and I exchanged regarding the details of this dessert. Ok, let’s not, because it is a little embarrassing.  Let’s just say I started craving cheesecake around 7am every day over the course of a week or so.  No big deal. We can’t…

Hot Blondies Giveaway & Review

Posted on April 3, 2011

Hot Blondies Bakery: A+ Classic Brunette: “That brownie could bring world peace” I am very excited about this!

Brownies for a Guest

Posted on March 10, 2011

One of my best friends is coming to town. Kristen and I have been friends since we were in 2nd grade.  No, that is a lie.  We have known each other since then but actually weren’t really friends until 6th grade.  I don’t really remember why it took so long, but we have been best…

Extra is Better

Posted on December 12, 2010

This recipe was a complete accident.  I was making Cookie Dough Topped Brownies and feeling over-confident in my memory of the brownie ingredients.  When I got past the step of stirring in sugar, I realized something was wrong.  The batter was much thicker than it should be. Fortunately, I realized that my mistake was adding…

Brownies with Cookie Dough Topping

Posted on December 7, 2010

I learned to bake by watching my mom, the Original Baker.  Most of my memories are of standing next to her at the kitchen counter as she measured ingredients and put them together effortlessly.  I’d help pour the sugar into the bowl or turn on the mixer, and sometimes even crack the eggs.  The best…
