Sweets in the snow: Cocoa brownies with sea salt

We’re knee-deep in snow here in Boston today (or full-body deep as far as our chilly little poodle is concerned), and I’m happy to report that we’re finally getting a taste of the East Coast winters we’ve heard so much about since moving here last summer. Woo hoo! There are few things I love more…

It’s time to meet the blondies

The season of sugar is upon us, and though I fully intend to stay waist deep in an assortment of tried and true cookie recipes from now until the New Year (I promise I will share!), I’m always game for a bit of newness as far as flour and sugar and butter are concerned. You’d…

My quest for the perfect homemade brownie continued last night, and I dare say I might have found a winner. Hidden nearly 700 pages deep, in the “Cookies and Candy” section of my NYT Cookbook, there lies an incredibly simple, back-to-basics type of recipe that sounded like just the kind of the thing I was…

Reflecting on a brownie

December 28, 2010 By Katrina

Brownies are tricky. Amidst all my baking escapades during the past few years, I haven’t been able to perfect a homemade brownie. It’s certainly possible that I’m doing something wrong: mixing things too much, not enough or not in the right order. But for the most part, I blame the box. Boxed brownies that is….
