Sesame Oat Square Bars with Pear Compote
Honey Pumpkin Bars with Cream Cheese Icing
There is something special about home-baked cakes. It's not just that they are really delicious, nor even that they are delightfully different from those you can buy. Homemade cakes and slices turn any occasion into a special one, whether served with morning coffee, or an old-fashioned afternoon tea party, or as a luxurious dessert at the end of a celebratory meal. Honey Spice Pumpkin Bars with Cream cheese Icing make great after-school snacks and any-time-of-day nibbles.
Cranberry Curd Bars & Walnut Shortbread Crust
One more idea what to do with cranberries for Thanksgiving day or any other day.
Vanilla Chocolate Chips Bars
Nothing can compare with a homemade Vanilla Chocolate Chips Bars for bringing a touch of pleasure to a coffee break or tea-time.
Ingredients:
- 2 1/8 cups all purpose flour
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1/2 tsp baking soda
- 12 tablespoons butter (1 1/2 sticks), melted and cooled slightly
- 1 cup light brown sugar
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 1 large egg
- 1 large egg yolk
- 2 tsp vanilla extract
- 2 cups chocolate chips
Directions:
Preheat the oven to 325 degrees. Adjust the oven rack to lower-middle position.
Line a 9X13-inch baking pan with foil, letting the excess hang over the edges of the pan by about 1 inch so you can grab those edges and pull the brownies from the pan after they have baked. Spray the foil-lined pan with nonstick cooking spray.
Mix the flour, salt, and baking soda together in medium bowl; set aside. Whisk the melted butter and sugars in a large bowl until combined. Add the egg, egg yolk, and vanilla and mix well.
Using a rubber spatula, fold the dry ingredients into the egg mixture until just combined; do not over mix. Fold in the chocolate chips and turn the batter into the prepared pan, smoothing the top with the spatula.
Bake until the top of the bars is light golden brown, slightly firm to the touch, and edges start pulling away from sides of pan, 25 minutes. Cool on a wire rack to room temperature.
Remove the bars from the pan by lifting the foil overhang and transfer them to a cutting board. Cut into squares and serve with tea or milk.
