World Champion Oatmeal Bars

World Champion Oatmeal Bars by Nancy Miyasaki

Of course, I served them to a bunch of SF Giants fans after the Giants won game 2 of the 2010 World Series...so the taste of victory may have mixed in with the chocolate, caramel, and oatmeal crunch of these yummy bars. Even without savoring the…

My friend Joelle brought these to our book club last week and they were a huge hit! Her family affectionately calls them "crack brownies". I had to soften that up a bit...but wanted to capture the fact that these really are addictive! This is adapted from a Martha Stewart recipe.

Williams Sonoma Triple Chocolate Brownies

Williams Sonoma Triple Chocolate Brownies by Nancy Miyasaki

This is a very popular recipe that I simplified a bit without losing any of it's goodness. You can serve these when you feel like a dark chocolate cake but don't have time to hassle with it. They make a wonderful end to any meal! They are super chocolaty, so they go really well with a scoop of vanilla or coffee ice cream!
