Super Bowl Week: Heath Bar Blondies

heath bar blondies
Nothing about these blondies makes them particularly special for the Super Bowl. They're just your basic blondie recipe with the substitution of chopped Heath bars for chocolate chips. However, because they're so easy to make, can be made the night before, and are easy to serve and eat, they work for a Super Bowl party, or any party for that matter.

Heath Bar Blondies
Preheat oven to 350. Grease 9x9 baking pan. (You can use an 8x8; the blondies will just be slightly taller.)

Into a large mixing bowl, sift together: 1 c. all-purpose flour,
½ tsp baking powder, 1/8 tsp baking soda, and ½ tsp salt.

In a large bowl, beat together 1 c brown sugar with 1 stick melted butter. Add 1 large egg and ¼ tsp vanilla.

Stir the flour mixture into the butter mixture along with 1 c. coarsely chopped Heath bars. (Add nuts if you feel so inspired, but don't tell me about it. I hate nuts in cookies and brownies). Pour batter into pan.

Bake for 20 to 25 minutes. Let cool (if you have the patience) before cutting into squares.

Chocolate cake is better than sex

That's not an editorial comment by me (though I guess it depends on the type of chocolate and/or the type of sex). It's actually a recipe I found at About.com. You know, while searching for "chocolate" and "sex."

This one is called Better Than Sex Cake, and has so many toppings and chocolate/caramel/butterscotch goodness that it might just live up to its name:

1 German chocolate (or other chocolate) cake, 13 x 9 x 2
3/4 cup fudge topping
3/4 cup caramel or butterscotch topping
3/4 cup sweetened condensed milk
6 chocolate covered toffee bars
1 tub of whipped topping

It's the chocolate covered toffee bars that got my attention. I'm addicted to those.
