Hi.
This is me.
Every single person in the house is napping.
At the same time.
Husband included.
Blame it on a 4:45 a.m. alarm and walking over five miles on a crazy boiling hot day at Disneyland.
Back to me.
I don't nap.
Naptime is too precious to waste sleeping.
Naptime is for babies, and preschoolers, and kids, and husbands.
Naptime is not for me.
My naptime means a quiet house.
Dave Matthews on the headphones.
Brownies in the mixing bowl.
Not just brownies.
BROWNIES.
I don't love brownies.
I love cupcakes. I love cake. I love cookies. I love cheesecake.
I just like sort of like brownies.
But these brownies, these brownies are different. I want to take them to prom.
Make them. Today. Seriously.
{I heart naptime's thin mint brownies}
You will love them.
Even more than Pioneer Woman's knock you naked brownies.
For reals.
But you can't take them to prom. They already have a date.
Yes. Mine have white frosting. Not minty green. The minty green ones are way cuter. Weird, dramatic, me and my food coloring issues just couldn't deal with it. Then again, maybe I should have made them green. If they were green, I could totally resist them. But then I would be home alone and forlorn on prom night and that would be super sad.
I also used half & half in the frosting instead of evaporated milk, because if you are going to be bad, be really bad.
Run along. It's brownie time.

ReplyDeleteSo true. Naptime really is too precious to waste.
I need to buy some teal headphones...
you shouldn't have. because now i'll make them to chase away the hubby-gone blues. and i'll eat all of them. then i'll dedicate my next 1,567 mile run to you, to make-up for the damage.

ReplyDeleteI'm fairly certain we called these "Nanimo Bars" where I grew up, whatever they are called, yum!
ReplyDeleteYou are killing me! These look devine! I tried the knock you naked brownies and while good I don't know if I would make them again.
ReplyDeleteYou are hilarious! I <3 your picture, you sneaky girl! So when it is quiet in the house, you blog, cook and listen to music! AWESOME! I think (know) I would've taken a nap, too! SO gonna try these! I saw you at Walmart w/kids in tow and my daughter thought I was stalking you like a rock star, which I think you are! hugs!
ReplyDeleteYou are too funny! I am totally the same way about naptime:-) I'll have to try those scrumptious treats!
ReplyDeleteOh dear, I must try these asap! Your recipes always end up being favorites around here. I finally got around to making your toffee crack a couple weeks ago and made them 3 times in a week and linked to your recipe on my blog as soon as I tasted them! Dangerous to have around! I shared, I swear! Haha
