Salted Caramel Brownies… YES PLEASE
Salted Caramel Brownies make me happy… like giddy happy. I have tried several recipes and all are good (like these) but this is the BEST in my opinion. Caramel Yumminess… Salted Caramel is a must in my life. I love it on ice cream, poured over cheesecake, dip fruit in it and of course drizzle into super fudgy and delicious brownie batter. There is just something about chocolate and caramel together. I usually make my own salted caramel sauce but for these brownies I used this Salted Caramel Sauce. I love it because it is thick and super creamy, and holds up well as it is baked. You can…

Sweet & Spicy Bacon
Bacon is always a good thing in my world… but this bacon is AMAZING!!! Bake it Baby! The trick to this bacon is baking it…do you normally bake it? I started baking mine a while ago…not only does it make perfectly crisp, but still tender & it is so much LESS messy. There is no grease spattering up to burn you and you can let it bake while you work on something else such as eggs or gravy, making breakfast a breeze and so YUMMY! Spice it up! For this recipe I sprinkled it with a spice combo that is a little sweet with a little heat making for a perfect piece…

Dark Chocolate Pumpkin Brownies – The Fall Brownie
Dark Chocolate Pumpkin Brownies are everything to me right now. They scream…Hello Fall! I so love this time of year. I love the cooler weather, sweaters, leaves falling and the smell of pumpkin spice EVERYWHERE! Look at that swirl… I am all about a good swirl…whether it be in my margarita or my brownie. The swirl in these brownies are epic though. The color of the pumpkin swirl next to the dark chocolate brownie batter is the perfect contrast. These Dark Chocolate Pumpkin Brownies are everything fall should be. A little extra chocolate love… To add a little extra chocolate to these already decadent brownies I added in some…

Weeknight Risotto…yes for real
I am a HUGE risotto fan. Almost anytime it is on a menu I will probably order it, but I also love to make it at home. Even better, over time The Hubby has learned to LOVE risotto too. you’ve got this… So I know some of you are thinking there is no way I can make risotto on a weeknight. It takes way to long and there is so much to it…but just wait. This weeknight risotto only has a few ingredients and comes together pretty quick making it perfect or dinner tonight. The beauty of this risotto is that it is perfect for the beginner risotto maker. The first…

Spring Break is here and that means it is time to relax, have fun and EAT…& I say lets eat some bacon!! There is just something so indulgent about bacon that makes you feel like your doing something a little naughty…and trust me this sweet & spicy version is a keeper for sure!! In my house plain bacon is special… but this version takes it to a whole new level. The trick to this bacon is baking it…do you normally bake it? I started baking mine a while ago…not only does it make perfectly crisp, but still tender & it is so much LESS messy. There is no bacon grease spattering…

you have been good…time for a brownie
We have been so good for the whole first week of 2016 and this weekend calls for a little treat…right? And a brownie sounds like the perfect treat and these brownies laced with cream cheese make them an ultimate treat for sure. Overtime I make these brownies they are gone before I can get a good pic so this last time I decided to set a few aside so after our company left I could take my pics…well that isn’t how it quite worked out. My husbands family was over playing one of their favorite card games and as they played they kept eating the brownies…everyone LOVED them! Eventually all…
