Chocolatey Brownie Bites by Carolinaheartstrings

My favorite chocolate treat has always been a brownie. The fudgier the better (is that a word?) It sure is to me. It perfectly describes how I like my brownies, warm from the oven and gooey with chocolate goodness. These little bite sized treats are the perfect way to use some restraint and still indulge a little. Happy eating!

Shrimp Fra Diavalo Pizza by Carolinaheartstrings

“Fra Diavalo” which literally means “devil brother” is a popular sauce often used with seafood. The “devil” in this case is a little heat courtesy of the use of some black and red pepper.

Raspberry Buttermilk Cake by Foodiewife

This cake recipe comes from Gourmet Magazine and is very simple to make. The batter is so good, that I greedily licked the batter spoon. You can exchange raspberries for kind of berries, or try fresh peaches or apricots. This is very addicting and perfect to make for unexpected company.

Oat Pecan Praline Cookies by Salad Foodie

Chewy, slightly soft texture with a hint of caramel pecan, these attractive cookies make a nice snack for company with coffee, tea or milk. Sometimes we bakers just have to break out of the oatmeal-raisin cookie rut, and these certainly do!

Chocolate Chip Zucchini Cookies by Salad Foodie

Zucchini cookies much like pumpkin cookies tend to have a cake-like texture rather than crisp or crunchy from the extra moisture of the vegetable. In this recipe the cookies come closer to a crisp/chewy texture through (1) extra draining step of the zucchini and (2) pressing the cookies down on cookie sheet before baking.
