The first time I made these Double Chocolate Brownies, I took them to the park to share with friends and they disappeared within minutes. Double Chocolate Brownies I love the slightly gooey centers, combined with just the right amount of rich chocolate and nuts. The options with this brownie recipe are nearly endless. Add nuts or skip them if they aren’t your thing. I’ve made these brownies with macadamia nuts, pecans, walnuts, and almonds, they’re honestly delicious however you make them....

Sourdough bread is not just your ordinary loaf; it is a living, breathing entity with a rich history and unique flavor profile that sets it apart. At its core, sourdough bread is the result of a natural fermentation process. As with any fermentation, the magic lies in the microorganisms that transform simple ingredients into something extraordinary. In the case of sourdough, wild yeasts and lactic acid bacteria work together symbiotically to create a flavorful, tangy bread with a distinct texture and aroma....

Tis the season for holiday baking!! I have been baking like a mad woman lately which means my house smells like holiday heaven nearly 24/7 and I and 100 percent okay with that.

Such as my Indian spice mixes like curry powder, garam masala, and chai spice....

I have a newly developed addicted to Chipotle Mexican Grill. Until recently we always opted for Cafe Rio, which I absolutely love and always will. But I just might have enough room in my Top Ameri-Mex Restaurants Of All Time for both Cafe Rio and Chipotle. It’s like ice cream and frozen yogurt. You can’t compare the two, they’re just different.
