dessert
I don't know if it was just something with my batter, but these were super crumbly. Part of it was that I used butter to grease my pan, (and then oil for the next batch), but they just kept sticking to the pan. The oil really made no different than the butter for greasing a pan. Also, when covering the donuts in butter you will not need 1/2 cup butter. I used only a few tablespoons and used a baster to cover them. They did taste really good though. But they were really frustrating--I wouldn't make them again just for the taste for all the pain they caused. Like I said, it could have been something with my batter, (but it seemed right!)

Chocolate chip cookies have always been one of my favorites throughout the years...I can remember making batches in the Kitchenaid mixer, at our old house, when I was seven.  So, of course, I had to make my own recipe.  It sort of just happened over the years!  Mixing this and that, figuring out what I did and didn't like in certain recipes, was natural.  So, a little more than a decade later and here is my recipe.  My favorite part?  It only takes one stick of butter.

----- Honestly though, should I be concerned that I know this recipe by heart??

----- Or, should I be worried that I can mix up and scoop an entire batch between the time I click 'preheat' and the time that the oven reaches 350?

These were delicioussss.  I thought the brownie itself was a little dry, but that is totally a matter of preference.  I kind of like my brownies to be chocolate-fudgieness.  Oh, and feel free to add more salt to the caramel!  I have been on a no-sugar diet for six days out of each week, Saturday is splurge day.  So, I knew I wanted something realllllly good and decadent.  I couldn't find exactly what I wanted, so I mixed together two recipes (which just happened to be from the very same blog!).

Here are the links:

chocolate cheesecake salted caramel brownies
by July-14-2016
Note: I doubled the brownie ingredients and baked in a 9x13".
Ingredients
  • 1/2 cup white sugar
  • 1/2 cup brown sugar
  • 6 tablespoons butter
  • 2 eggs
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla
  • 3/4 cup cocoa
  • 1/2 cup flour
  • 1/8 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1 cup chocolate chip
  • C A R A M E L:
  • 3/4 cup sugar
  • 3 tablespoons corn syrup
  • 4 tablespoons butter
  • 3 tablespoons heavy cream
  • 1/2 teaspoons salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon vanilla
  • C H E E S E C A K E:
  • 8oz cream cheese, softened
  • 1/3 cup sour cream
  • 1/2 cup sugar
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla
  • 1 egg
Instructions
Preheat oven: 350 degrees. Brownie batter: in a pot, mix sugars and butter -- medium heat, stir until butter is melted. Cool slightly, then add eggs and vanilla. Next, add dry ingredients and then fold in chocolate chips. Pour into greased, glass pan. Cheesecake: mix together all ingredients in a bowl, pour over brownie batter and swirl with a knife. Caramel: Combine the sugar and corn syrup and cook over medium heat on the stove, stirring occasionally. It will melt, then become honey colored and from there you'll have to watch very closely as it turns from a golden honey color to an ambery caramel color. As soon as it's caramel colored, add the butter and stir until bubbling subsides. Add the cream and stir until well combined and bubbling subsides. Add the salt and vanilla. Set aside to cool.
