Fat Caryn Brownies

Fat Caryn Brownies

This is my version of the famous Fat Witch Brownies. I love the Fat Witch cookbook, but of course I had to tweak their brownie recipe! My sweet tooth is very evident in this recipe, but feel free to substitute bittersweet chocolate chips, if the semi-sweet make these too sweet for you. One of the best things about the Fat Witch cookbook is that all the recipes bake in a 9 X 9 inch pan and the cookbook fits in a 9 X 9 inch pan. That makes the cookbook and a pan the perfect gift!
Servings 12 brownies

Ingredients

  • 14 tablespoons unsalted butter (1 3/4 sticks)
  • 1/2 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
  • 2 tablespoons semi-sweet chocolate chips
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/4 cup dark brown sugar
  • 4 large eggs
  • 1 tablespoon Godiva white chocolate liquor or 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
  • pinch of salt

Instructions

  • Spray a 9 X 9 inch baking pan with baking spray (or grease with butter and dust with flour).
  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
  • Place the butter and chocolate chips in a microwave-safe bowl. Melt in the microwave on high for 2 to 3 minutes, stirring every 30 seconds until the chocolate chips are melted. Stir in the pinch of salt. Set aside to cool.
  • Cream the sugars, eggs, and liquor together in the bowl of an electric mixer. Add in the cooled chocolate mixture and mix until well blended.
  • Add the flour to the chocolate mixture and mix the batter until well combined.
  • Spread the batter evenly in the prepared baking pan and bake for 30 to 35 minutes, until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean (without any batter on it).
  • Remove the brownies from the oven and cool 1 hour (or as long as you can wait). Cut the brownies just before serving.

English Muffin Bread

This bread makes the BEST grilled cheese sandwiches!
Servings 1 loaf

Ingredients

  • 1 cup half and half
  • 1/4 cup warm water
  • 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
  • 1 1/2 tablespoons yeast
  • 2 tablespoons sugar
  • 3 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon baking soda

Instructions

  • Combine half and half, water, and oil and microwave on high for 30 to 40 seconds (liquid should be warm to the touch but not hot).
  • Add the yeast and sugar to the liquid mixture and let sit for 10 minutes.
  • In a large bowl, combine the flour, salt, and baking soda and mix throughly with a fork.
  • Pour the liquid mixture into the flour mixture and mix until it all comes together, being careful not to mix too much, it just needs to all be incorporated. The dough will be sticky.
  • Leave the dough in the bowl and allow to rise in a warm place until doubled (about 45 minutes to 1 hour).
  • Once the bread has risen, generously butter an 8-inch by 5-inch loaf pan and preheat the oven to 400 degrees.
  • Pour the batter into the pan and gently even out the top.
  • Bake the bread for 20 to 22 minutes, until the crust is golden.
  • Let the bread cool in the pan for 10 minutes before removing from the pan. Cool the bread completely before slicing.
