My family and I made the Warm Nutty Caramel Brownies last Saturday night. Y-U-M-M-Y-! :thumbup:

Okay, so you know how much it makes, right? My daughter and I ate it in 3 days!!! If you havent' made them yet, ya' gotta'!!
 
Made them many times and I can eat them all by myself in 3 days!! LOL
 
I've made them lots. They're pretty popular with my hosts as "Smack Yo Mama Brownies." I don't, however, eat them. I'm diabetic. I learned a long time ago how to eat a bite of something and walk away. These don't seem to me like something I could walk away from. The Furry Guy did my taste testing on those. As you can imagine, he was a very willing participant.

So, I think I'll use them in one of my opening shows next month. My daughter will be helping me and we're inviting a bunch of Mother/Daughter teams for "An Amazing Race" party. I've just got to figure out the other recipe. I was originally going to have a main dish and a dessert, but I think with so many 13-yr. olds going to be there I'll make it two desserts. They need to be about the same degree of difficulty or I could have a couple steps premade.
 
I LOVE those brownies...sadly I had to get a restraining order from them because they forced themselves down my throat...it was very scary....

I'm fine now, but I can't look at mixed nuts, brownie mix or rolo's without needing my happy pills and a hug...
 
Julie, for your other dish, the girls might like the Jerk Chicken Nachos.

Thank you! I as thinking about that one! I'll have to try it this weekend.
 
I made these for a bake sale at work and sold them $1 per square (it was a fundraiser for a charity) - I made 2 batches, and they sold out in an HOUR!! I had people telling me they were "Off The Hook" brownies, and asking for the recipe (which I conveniently had at my desk!! LOL!). They are truly "Chocolate Bliss"!!! :D

I have a little Bake Sale Cookbook and I might as well throw it out! Those brownies are all I need!!! I can't wait to make them for everyone I know!

True 'dat! ;)
 
These should be called "Better Than S_x Brownies" because if you eat one warm and with a scoop of vanilla ice cream...oh...the thoughts that go through your head should be sensored!!

I feel a need to share my usual response when people say things like that:You obviously aren't doing it right. :eek: LOL![/B]
 
I have to confess I have NEVER made these before. Reason: they look way to dangerous! I should just take the ingredients and rub them on my thighs :)

I keep telling DH I'll make them some day.

I am about to fall out of my chair laughing at that one.
:D

that just made my day.
 
Glad I could help. LOL!
 
I made them last Saturday too as a trial run for my show this weekend. I had to take half of them to my neighbor they were soooo good!!!!! I agree they are VERY dangerous:cry: Luckily I'll be busy at my show so I won't have time to sneak even a little taste and I know there won't be any leftovers:D
 
Quick note: The Furry Guy suggested using broken pretzels in place of the nuts for those who can't/won't eat nuts.

Yay! for that! My guy hates nuts in anything and pretzels are a great idea! A great excuse for making another batch just to see!;)

Notice in the first post I said my daughter and I ate it. (Hey, I quoted myself)
 
it only took my family one night to eat them all, I was told NEVER to make those again by my DH

I've made them at a few show - but I never thought selling them at a bake sale - I have one coming up and couldn't think of what to make...
 
Would you by any chance have a recipe that uses the Double Strength Madagascar Bourbon Pure Vanilla Extract or the Basil Blend Canola Oil? I am in dire need of producing one. Thanks

So, do you think the pretzels will still be crunchy after cooking? I don't think I've ever cooked pretzels. Maybe my opening Amazing Race party will be one team doing the nutty brownies and one team doing the pretzel brownies. :D
 
These might be one of my all time favorite PC recipes!!!

Just use any cookie recipe that calls for vanilla! :) I don't like basil, so I can't help you there, but you could saute some chicken in the oil for added flavor...
