Brownies - my recipe
Lemon Squares - from the Green Thumb cookbook
Jolly Ranchers - apple flavored


I rarely have sweets at home, and when I bake brownies or lemon squares, it is usually to fill a request from my sons, friends or pen pals.

The horror! How could I have forgotten cheesecake? Turtle cheesecake, original New York style cheesecake, any berry cheesecake, and no doubt there are others I have not tried. I treat myself to cheesecake annually and have a few months to discover a new flavor to try.

Catwoman - care to share the recipe?

Candy: Snickers, Reese's PB cups, high quality chocolate

Ice cream of just about any type

Chocolate blackout cake from Carson's in Chicago (Gypsy will know what I'm talking about), home made chocolate chip cookies, brownies, or 7 layer bars, and tiramisu.

Yeah, sweets are a weakness.

Negative, but it had an crushed chocolate cookie (Oreo?) crust, was iced with a light chocolate (cocoa?) frosting between the layers, with a glaze of melted chocolate over the top, a dollop of whipped cream on that, with dark chocolate grated over the cream and a wedge of dark chocolate stuck in the top.

Pretty sinful stuff.

For those who have tried it, anyone care to peruse this recipe and/or test it for similarity? This could make the cut for my birthday cheesecake search.

Yumm yes it's good, but I think my favorite chocolate cake (that isn't made by me ) is Momma's chocolate cake at Portillo's of all places. OMG!

Have to say the cake TR described sounds devilishly delicious though.
