I love brownies. If I were Will Ferrel's Elf
I would have brownies as a food group like his "Candy, candy corn, candy canes, and syrup"- "Cookies, Cheesecake, Brownies, Lasagna (oh and Strawberrries of course!)" Alas, my life/diet is not made up only of brownies and cookies but you might think so from my blog! These brownies were great to add to my reportoire. Quick, delicious, almost even refreshing with the York Peppermint patties. They were also pretty flexible. I was out of baker's chocolate so I subbed in cocoa powder, a little extra milk chocolate (mixing everything up), and it all turned out. Thanks Dorie- you're brilliant.
Get the recipe from Karen and make these stat. It'll ease the heat of the summer, I promise. And let me know what your favorite food groups would be. Hopefully I'm not the only one with dessert issues.PS Did you know tomorrow is French Independence Day? Come back tomorrow for our Bastille Day menu. Oh, and bring some butter. I'm making Dorie and Ina's recipes so you'll need it!
Your brownies look awesome!
ReplyDeleteOne of my favorite food groups is sweet yeast rolls. Your brownies look good too.
ReplyDeleteLove the big chunks of peppermint patties in your brownies. My favourite food groups: cake, more cake, custardy things, pie, maple syrup and fruit. At least one is a real food group!
ReplyDeleteThey look great. And I may have said this before, but I really like that plate. :o)
ReplyDeleteOh my goodness, these look amazing. They may be going on my blog soon, too!
ReplyDeleteBrownies should definitely be in there own food group....your brownies look so very very good!! Mint is perfect with chocolate!

There's nothing like peppermint and chocolate! Your brownies are great!
ReplyDeleteAnd your brownies are just more proof that I did screw up. The patties just melted all over the place into a sticky mess. Funny thing is, they are still getting eaten! Yours look perfect.

ReplyDeleteI love that part of Elf when he is talking about sugar.
These were good, weren't they? Yours look perfect. Hmmm, let's see, my four food groups would be brownies, choco chip cookies, hershey's chocolate and crab, LOL.
ReplyDeleteI had forgotten about Elf. Thanks for the reminder! My favorite food group is salads. Love all kinds. Love your brownies. They look delicious.
