Yum Yum Suace

Some people call it 'seafood sauce'
It's the sauce you get at the hibachi grill. The addictive delicious sauce you poor over your rice and meat and just say "can you just keep the container of the sauce here"

1 cup mayo
1/4 cup water
1 teaspoon tomato paste
1 tablespoon melted butter
1 teaspoon granulated garlic
1 teaspoon sugar
1 teaspoon paprika
1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper

Mix all these ingredients together. Refridgerate for at least an hour OR overnight.

POUR OVER EVERYTHING!

Cookie dough topped brownies.

Before you say no; keep in mind this is an EGG LESS cookie dough. So as it may not be healthy it's okay to eat.

BROWNIE:
4 ounces unsweetened chocolate, finely chopped
1 cup butter, melted
2 cups light brown sugar, packed
4 large eggs
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
1 cup all-purpose flour

COOKIE DOUGH (EGG FREE!):
3/4 cup butter, at room temperature
3/4 cup light brown sugar, packed
3/4 cup granulated white sugar
3 Tablespoons milk
1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla extract
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1 1/2 cups mini chocolate chips

Before you begin as every recipe starts preheat your oven to 325. 
Spray a 9x13 pan really good (helps get the brownies out later.)

Now melting the chocolate for the brownies you can either put it in a glass bowl in the microwave for 30 seconds at a time. BUT if it burns like Paula Deen says it's "trashcan". I put a saucepan with water in it and the glass bowl on top. It works as a double boiler and you can melt the chocolate evenly. Just keep stirring. 
Once it's all melted set it aside it has to cool a little. 
Start mixing or whisking together the brown sugar and butter. Add the eggs and vanilla and mix or whisk those in too.Then your chocolate is cool enough to go ahead and mix that in too. 
Mix in the flour and whisk/mix together just until combined. (You don't want to over-mix)
 Go ahead and pour the batter in your pan. 
Bake 25-30 minutes. (check with toothpick should come out clean)
Set the brownies aside so they can cool. (The last thing you want to do is spread your dough on top of warm brownies.) 

Now we can start the cookie dough!
Just as any other cookie dough starts mix in mixer all the wet ingredients. 
Once all combined go ahead and start your dry ingredients. (Chocolate chips last.)

Once the brownies are cooled enough go ahead and spread on top just like frosting.

Place in fridge until the dough is set. (or freezer for speedy set up)
 

Bacon Caramel Brownies.

Now this one is a TAD more complicated. It took me twice to make the caramel. But I'll tell you what I learned so you can only make it once. :) That's how nice I am.

First preheat your oven to 350. (it takes a while to heat up)
Get a square 8 inch pan and line with aluminum foil and spray the foil.
Cook up 4 slices of bacon. (I usually cook 5 because I have to eat a piece)
Crumble the bacon up into little pieces.
KEEP THE GREASE IN THE PAN


For the caramel sauce:
1/2 cup of heavy cream
1 cup sugar
6 tablespoons butter

Add cream to your bacon grease while the pan is hot. Then set aside and let come to room temperature.
In a medium saucepan on high cook up your sugar. It will get liquified and an amber color. Now this is where it gets a little difficult. (I had my boyfriend help me) You NEED to keep stirring while you mix in the butter. It will bubble up and then once that is melted mix in the heavy cream. Remember KEEP STIRRING.
Add in half of the crumbled bacon.
Set aside and let come to room temperature.

Now comes the brownies. This part is easy peasy.

8 tablespoons (1 stick) butter cut into pieces
6 oz (half bag) of semi sweet chocolate chips
1/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
3 large eggs
1 cup sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla
1 cup flour
bacon
bacon caramel

Melt your butter and chocolate chips. (I did it in microwave for 30 seconds and stir and then for 10 seconds after) You can do it whatever way you want.
Mix in the cocoa powder until smooth
Add eggs one at a time
Then add your sugar, vanilla and flour.
Mix in the rest of the bacon.

In you're lined pan mix 1/3 of the brownie batter and top with the caramel. Swirl the sauce into the batter with a knife and repeat until your batter and caramel is gone.

Place in the oven for 30-45 minutes.

Note* you want them moist so take them out a TAD early.

I know it's been a while. But I hope this makes up.

I'm not sure what to call these? But it's a salty but sweet treat. Great for a snack.
Very tedious though.

1 package hugs (or kisses)
1 package m&ms (I use the valentine ones you can use whatever you want)
1 bag of square 'waffle' pretzels.

OR

1 bag of rolo's
1 bag of pecan halfs
bag of waffle pretzels

Preheat your oven to 200. You can spray the pan if you want too. (Lightly)
Line the pan with your pretzels and then put the kisses or rolo's on top in the center.
Let them cook about 2-4 minutes and then take them out and place an  m&m or pecan in the center.
Let them cool ( I put them in the fridge)
and enjoy. :)
