Confession: it’s First on the First time, when we try something new and scary in the kitchen, or something we’ve been putting off, or something we’ve just never done homemade, but this month’s challenge isn’t a first for me. Souffles are definitely the stuff of legend in my mind, but I’ve made these about half […]
Dark Chocolate Merlot Skillet Cookie / Brownies
When someone pointed out that my beloved skillet cookie, in both its original and peanut butter forms, had the equivalent ingredients to a whole BATCH of cookies, rather than think, “EW, you’re right, that’s excessive”, I thought “Oooh, you’re right, what OTHER cookie recipes could be baked in this wonderful way?!” What other cookies do […]

Here’s a […]
Roasted Cherry Dark Chocolate Brownies
These are, quite simply, the best brownies I have ever eaten. We’ve been on a bit of a brownie kick lately, with the Cookies ‘n’ Cream brownies, then the Peanut Butter Crunch brownies, and now this.
