Chocolate Chip Banana Bread

June 30, 2020 by kim 2 Comments

Are you guys tired of baking banana bread yet? I saw this on Instagram from Chelsweets and knew I had to try it immediately. When people claim and make something else “banana,” it ends up looking exactly like banana bread in different shapes. This one actually looked different.

Oh boy, it is different. These are dense, flavorful, and chewy. They’re much more of a bar than a bread. It’s what it claims to be!

I let them cool completely before digging in since I baked them at 10PM at night. They were so good in the morning! I bet they would have been better warm, but I’ll never know. Half of the pan is already gone since my DH and children (mostly DH) devoured it.

This is the first recipe I’ve tried from Chelsey, but I’ve been a long time follower of her on Instagram. She makes the most beautiful cakes!

Recipe ever so slightly adapted from Chelsweets.

Day 2: Triple Chocolate Toffee Bars

Day 2 of my 12 days of cookies: Triple Chocolate Toffee Bars. You know how I like to mix things up with some cookie bars in my countdown. This was made especially for National Cookie Day, December 4th!

Krusteaz helped me celebrate this wonderful day with some cookie mixes. I used one of the recipes on their site to spruce it up a bit and added some chopped toffee chocolate bars.

Easy peasy. I also added some chocolate sprinkles on top for good measure. img_6197

This recipe is a good one for the kiddos to help out with and get in the holiday spirit since it’s made using a pre-made package. fullsizeoutput_44ad

If you think forming cookies is too much work from a boxed mix, you could follow these directions and omit the toffee to make triple chocolate chunk bars. It’s easier to throw the entire batter into one pan than roll balls of dough, right? But c’mon, that’s just too easy.

Krusteaz has a variety of other boxes available to bake with if chocolate chunk isn’t your cup of tea. fullsizeoutput_44ac

This recipe comes from Krusteaz.

Slutty Brownies

Have you ever heard of these before? I have no idea why they’re called “slutty” brownies, but I’ll eat them anyway. I mean, wouldn’t you? They have chocolate chip cookie dough, brownies, AND Oreos. I love them all individually so it’s a no brainer that I’d love them all together.

These are a hit with the ones that always pick the dessert that’s on the safe side. You know, the ones that don’t like nuts, coconut, raisins… in their desserts. The ones that like just chocolate chip. Heck, I’m even that person on some days.

This really is a gorgeous dessert. You can undercook them a little if you like gooey brownies. You could also use a smaller pan to bake them in if you want thicker, fudge-y bars. Obviously, you’ll need less Oreos to top it with if you use a smaller pan. For me, the 9×13 pan was perfect.

I always forget how good Oreos are until I buy them to bake with. Then I eat the remaining rows of Oreos that were unused in the recipe and remember why I don’t buy them as often.

But that’s what husbands and siblings are for… sharing Oreos! Thank goodness I have three siblings to help me eat all the Oreos. Oreos are even vegan so my older sister can participate in this Oreo eating fest.

Make this for your Thanksgiving dessert this year, you won’t regret it! Maybe just leave out the part that they’re called “slutty brownies.”
