Cadbury Egg Brownies




This recipe is sooo good i've made this and it's a winner
Here is the link http://gingerbreadbagels.com/2011/04/13/cadbury-creme-egg-brownies/


and the recipe

Cadbury Creme Egg Brownies

When I was a child, I really wanted to love Cadbury Creme Eggs but I just couldn’t get into them. As a child I had a deep love for other foods – beets, pickled cauliflower, tomatoes. All I wanted in my Easter Baster was a jar of pickled vegetables. Seriously don’t ask. I was a strange one. But now as an adult (almost 26…), I can actually say now that these Cadbury Creme Eggs are making their way to my “dangerous foods list.” Foods that I can’t be trusted around and will scarf down in 5 seconds if someone doesn’t take it away from me. So in order to make the Cadbury Creme Eggs extra (I’m searching for a word…) magnificent, I figured I’d press them on top of one of the foods that is at the top of my dangerous foods list, the brownie.
Sift together 3/4 cup all purpose flour, 1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder and 1/4 teaspoon kosher salt. Set aside.
Take 5 large Cadbury Creme Eggs and very carefully cut each one in half. If it breaks and looks like a toddler chopped the egg (nevermind a toddler wouldn’t be holding a knife…), it’s no big deal. You’ll need 9 halves for the brownies. Yes I realize I have more than 9 halves in this photo. I wanted to eat them…
Now moving on! In a large mixing bowl with the paddle attachment (handheld mixer works too although I never use mine), mix together 3/4 cup packed light brown sugar, 3/4 cup sugar, 1/2 cup (1 stick!) melted unsalted butter and 1 Tablespoon of vanilla extract.
Throw in 2 large eggs at room temperature. One at a time! Mix it up.
Slowly and I mean very slowly, add in the dry ingredients. Mix until just combined. Remember we want brownies, no bricks.
Take a spatula and fold the ingredients together. I love my spatula.
Throw in 1/2 cup of semi sweet chocolate chips. Brownies always need more chocolate. Fold them in with your favorite spatula. This is actually my 2nd favorite. My favorite is a green spatula, like the color of an avocado….
Spread the brownie batter in a lightly greased 8×8 inch baking pan.
You’ll bake the brownies for a total of 30 minutes. Once 25 minutes is up, take the Cadbury Creme Egg halves and carefully press them on top of the brownies.
Put the brownies back in the oven for 5 minutes. Once the brownies are done, cool the brownies before cutting into pieces. Then enjoy! :)
Cadbury Creme Egg Brownies
4 1/2 Cadbury Creme Eggs (total of 9 halves)
3/4 cup all purpose flour
1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
3/4 cup packed light brown sugar
3/4 cup sugar
1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter, melted
1 Tablespoon vanilla extract
2 large eggs, at room temperature
1/2 cup semi sweet chocolate chips
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
Cut the Cadbury Eggs along the crease. You should have a total of 9 halves. Set aside.
Sift together the flour, unsweetened cocoa powder and kosher salt. Set aside.
In a large mixing bowl with the paddle attachment (a handheld mixer works too), mix together the packed light brown sugar, sugar, melted unsalted butter and vanilla extract on medium speed for 3 minutes.
Add in the eggs one at a time and mix.
Slowly add in the dry ingredients on low speed. Mix until just combined. Take a spatula and fold the ingredients together.
Throw in the semi sweet chocolate chips and fold them in.
Spread the brownie batter into a lightly greased 8×8 inch baking pan. The brownies will bake for a total of 30 minutes at 350 degrees F.
Once the brownies have baked for 25 minutes, remove them from the oven and carefully press the Cadbury Creme Eggs on top of the brownies. The center of the Cadbury Eggs should be facing up.
Put the brownies back in the oven and continue baking for 5 more minutes.
Cool the brownies and then cut into pieces. Enjoy! So delicious!!!

Swirly Cupcakes!!!!

Hi this is me again and here are some supercalifragilisticexpealidocius cupcakes that are fun for kids and adults!!! This recipe is by the American Girl company.


You will need


1 box of white cake mix
4 food coloring colors
5 bowls
cupcake stuff (pans,cupcake liners,etc.)


1. Follow directions on the box until you get to the part where you pour it in the muffin cups.


2. Separate batter into 4 bowls add about 5 drops of one food coloring in each bowl. Now you should have four bowls of different colored batter.


3. Pour a little batter into each muffin cup. Don't overdo it because remember that you will be pouring 4 things of batter into each cup. Then put the next color and next until you have a 3/4 filled layered colored batter. Doing this will create a swirl and don't be afraid to experiment with the colored batter.


Have fun!!!!

Burgers 101

I've been doing a small science experiment for a science fair and I thought it would be good to post.
I left 5 burgers out on a table for 9 days and here are the results:

burger 1: McDonalds   It never rotted at all!!!!!
burger 2 : Burger King  It didn't rot instead it grew this icy substance all over the burger.
burger 3 : In and Out     It rotted at day 5. It grew bumpy substances on it .
burger 4 : Smash Burger Same as burger 3, but grew common house mold.
burger 5 : Carls Jr.         Same as 3 too, but instead it grew this greenish blue substance.

I also found out the size to the price

McDonalds has $1 burgers but they are mini like 1 inch and you can't even see the burger!!!!!
In and Out is probably best because it has quality, good and has real meat (cough cough), it also has a nice size burger and a cheap price (usually 3 or 4 dollars). Burger King is sorta a mix of both Mcdonalds and In and Out. Smash burger is a little bit bigger than In and Out but usually costs 5 or 6 bucks. Finally Carls Jr. was just like Burger king only bigger.

I think In and Out's burger is the best burger because it has so many good traits.

In and Outs burger after 6 days
All the burgers together

McDonalds is top right see teeny tiny little burger
