So today’s “recipe” barely even qualifies as a recipe. I’ve been crazy busy this week working on some projects {including painting} and I have barely had time to cook or bake anything. Plus Denver has been having the most gloriously beautiful weather the past week. So with Memorial Day coming up and the warm weather we’ve been having, I decided to celebrate with a little treat: patriotic ice cream sandwiches!
Beware the Ides of March!! Or rather, beware your waistline because of these brownies!
I’m a huge fan of turtles. No, not the animal {though those can be pretty adorable}. I’m talking turtles of the caramel, pecan, and chocolate variety. And since my birthday was this past Wednesday, I took advantage of the excuse and made the most amazing, decadent brownies. Seriously people. These rock my socks off. They may just be the best brownies I’ve ever had… and trust me, I’m a professional brownie taster {Ok, not really. But if such a job exists… can I have an application immediately?!}. That’s right people… Caramel & Pecan {Turtle} Brownies!!!

Ok. I know I’ve been on a healthy-ish food kick recently but this is a recipe that I can’t even pretend is healthy-ish. It is outright sinful. I can remember my mom making it and me and my siblings fighting over who got to lick the spatula. My dad would even get in on the action! My mom has been making this for as long as I can remember. And before that, my grandma was making it. Apparently, it is a recipe that was given to my grandmother by her neighbor, Mrs. Morton, way back when. So in our family, we’ve always called it Mrs. Morton’s fudge. But you can call it the best Chocolate Peanut Butter Fudge ever!
Hi all!! Remember me!? It’s been a little while since I last posted. I really want to take a moment to thank you all so much your well wishes and sweet comments following my last post about the bus crash. You people are the best friends a girl could ask for! For those wondering, I’m definitely doing better. My brain is healing {yay for being able to kind of spell agian again!} and I’ve been rehabbing my hip and shoulder. I’ve got quite a bit more work to do there but they are starting to come back!
On to the good stuff. I told you guys last time I shared a recipe that the hubs and I been trying to cut back on the sweets and working to get healthy and eating healthier. The hardest thing for me to cut out is sweets… I’ve got a serious sweet tooth {as evident by one of my largest Pinterest boards!} So I’ve been working on ways to satisfy my craving with small “bites” of semi-healthy sweetness! This is one of my all time favorites… Chocolate Peanut Butter Banana Bites!!!
If you are anything like me, sometimes you buy things with every intention to use them before they go bad. Most of the time I feel bad but there is one exception when I am overjoyed! You see, this week I let my bananas get all brown and mushy. You know what that means… banana bread. And better yet, my all time favorite, Chocolate Chunk Banana Bread!
