Hot chocolate for dessert had a glow up and came back as Mexican Hot Chocolate Brownies. These aren’t your grandma’s fudgy squares (though Grandma would happily approve). They’re rich, spicy, and just a little mysterious — and yes, they’re made with smarter swaps so you can enjoy every ooey-gooey bite with a little less guilt…
Read MoreHealthy Blender Brownies
I’ve made healthy brownies in the past, but never quite like this. These Healthy Blender Brownies take it to the next level with all the ingredients easily being tossed into a blender and purred down into a smooth batter that you then bake and enjoy. Yep. That’s it. No bowl required for this one. Just a blender (or food processor) and the baking dish.
I used quick oats in mine, but I think regular old-fashioned oats would work just as well in these brownies. They bake up into a light brownie that’s just fudge enough for my liking without being overly wet or dense. I find that the more cakey brownies tend to be better for brownie sundaes anyway since they can soak up the ice cream goodness…

So, this is probably one of the best desserts in the world. With two of my favorites desserts combined together into one ultimate dessert. How can you go wrong? If you love s’mores and if you love brownies, then there is no way that you won’t love these S'more Brownies even more!
The bottom layer is a lightly sweet and buttery graham cracker crust that sandwiches gooey-gooey brownie with chocolate chunks with toasty toasted marshmallows on top. So much yummy goodness all in one bite. It’s heaven in the form of a brownie, I tell you…
Read MoreHealthified Cosmic Brownies
So… I’ve been missing for 3 days now. I live in Texas and in case you didn’t hear the news, the entire state was basically without power for the most of this past week - during some of the coldest weather we’ve had in decades. It wasn’t fun. On top of being without power, we were also put on a ‘boil water’ notice. Anyone know how to boil water when you don’t have power? It’s tricky.
Thankfully, my home got it’s power back yesterday morning. And we’re (so far) one of the few houses to have both heat AND running water for the time being. I’m still being cautious with how much electricity being used as we try and keep the grid stable, but as soon as the lights and heat came on, I was ready to get baking. Nothing much is more comforting than chocolate. And these Healthified Cosmic Brownies are chocolate on top of chocolate and rainbow bits!…
Read MoreBlackout Brownies
A couple of weeks back I got my hands on some ‘black’ cocoa powder. It’s extra dark unsweetened dutch process cocoa powder and it is delicious! It’s a great way to get a naturally deep dark black chocolate for baked goods. Which means it’s absolutely perfect for blackout, black velvet, and Halloween sweets!
These Blackout Brownies are based off of one of my tried and true family favorite brownie recipes that’s been in my back pocket for a good while now. With Halloween looming just a few days away, I thought what better time than now to make my favorite brownies with this black cocoa powder…
Read MorePBJ Brownies
I don’t know why, but I always go into peanut butter and jelly mode as the summer winds down and back-to-school starts to nip at our heels. What can I say? But, I’m sorry and you’re welcome. These PBJ Brownies are every bit as good as they look. They are the gooiest, most decadent, delicious brownies that I’ve ever had the pleasure of eating.
One of my favorite things about these brownies (other than how good they are) is that they are made all in one bowl. Which means they’re fairly easy to make and don’t require a lot of effort for being as amazing as they are…
