I had the idea for these cinnamon roll blondies recently, but they were such a good idea that I had to check and see whether I had had the idea before. It turns out, I had! But, I made them in my brother’s kitchen during my freshman year of college and didn’t have the best…
Banana Chocolate Swirl Blondies
So these Banana Chocolate Swirl Blondies were sort of an accident/experiment, and they turned out better than I expected. I made some “banana fudge cookies” that were supposed to be healthy – they were just almond butter, banana, and cocoa powder- and they were delicious. But not super satisfying as a dessert, you know? Like,…
Brown Butter S’mores Bars
September is a tough month for me. Not to be dramatic, but it’s basically a month of disappointed dreams. The onset of September conjures up visions of pristinely sharped pencils and unmarked new notebooks, walking home from the bus stop in shoes that are still being broken in while a few stray golden-orange leaves blow…
Brownie Doctor: Brown Butter Frosting Brownies
One of Audrey and my favorite shows is Parks and Recreation. (Fitting since we’re from Indiana, where the show takes place!)

Brown Butter Nutella Raspberry Blondies
Brown Butter Nutella Raspberry Blondies were basically designed to make you fall in love. How can you resist nutty brown butter paired with the nutty chocolate goodness of Nutella and the bright, tart sweetness of raspberries? I’ve been having a thing for raspberries recently. Like, a serious thing. Like so serious that if the raspberries…
Monster Cookie Brownies
Monster Cookie Brownies are like a monster cookie had a baby with a brownie. Brownies are stuffed with peanut butter chips and M&Ms, then frosted with an out-of-this-world peanut butter oatmeal cookie dough frosting that deserves it’s own fanfare and could easily be eaten on spoon. Remember when we made Oatmeal Cookie Dough Whoopie Pies…
Brown Butter Blondies With Reese’s Hearts
Dense, thick, and chewy Brown Butter Blondies made with almond butter, with chocolate frosting and Reese’s hearts are a perfect Valentine’s Day treat. Are there any foods that remind you of home? Sometimes the things that remind you most fiercely of home are surprising. When I was studying abroad in London last spring, I suffered…
