Raw Salted Chocolate Chip Oat Healthy Bars for #SundaySupper

Posted on by wallflourgirl

I dare you to tell me this is “just another healthy oat bar” recipe. I triple dog dare you, and if you lose, I will bite the head off a hapless gingerbread man (is it almost that time of the year already? Sigh).

Raw Salted Chocolate Oat Healthy Bars with Dates and Coconut 2--100414

Apart from the mumbled ooh’s and aah’s these bars received when I brought them to my friends’ houses, this healthy snack alternative just knocked my socks off. I was messing around with the food processor last week because it’s been a solid 98 degrees all week here. Living in perpetual beautiful summertime may not sound like a … Read more

I have some CRAZY good recipes for you guys this week, possibly one of my favorite round-ups so far–hecka hallelujah! And erm, yeah it’s technically not Friday yet–I guess I got a bit over-zealous because they’re so good hahaha. Happy Thursday!

Cynthia from Two Red Bowls posted this Vegan Bangkok Peanut Ice Cream weeks ago but I have not stopped dreaming about it since. Seriously. This might be my favorite ice cream recipe this year, and I’ve been sharing it on Facebook and everywhere since. Thank you for sharing, gal! Yer amazin’.

Being the highly observant person you are, I’m sure this fact doesn’t need declaring, but I’ll declare it anyway…

The new and spectacularly improved Wallflour Girl is up!

AHHHHHHHH.

For the past three weeks or so, I have been agonizing about this moment. What if the site disintegrated into a sorry pile of turd because I got halfway done with re-coding and realized, dang, I haven’t a Blue’s clue what I’m doing?

Well, the moment has arrived, and no hardcore programmers’ guild has spontaneously combusted into flames. Yet. And I’ve still got a fully-functioning new site to boot!

Flourless Peanut Butter Chocolate Chip Cookies for #oxogoodcookies

Posted on by wallflourgirl

Today we’re going to play a game of Mind Meld. Question: “What three associations to mind when I say the word, “Oregon’?”

Flourless Peanut Butter Cookies 3--092514

Got your answer ready? Good, let’s compare…Flourless Peanut Butter Cookies 4--092514

If you’d asked me this question 10 days ago, my answers would have been something like:

  • Oregon Trail. I mean, let’s be real here–who didn’t think of Oregon Trail lickety-split? Who among us can forget (am I dating myself?) that wonderfully pixelated covered wagon trundling along a two-dimensional river; your passengers dying of dysentery because you decided the “Rest for a while” option was for chumps; and the tiny box

Dirty poultry desserts. Say what?

Mud Hen Bars 5--091114

Okay, so that’s not what “mud hen” really means, but I swear I was on the right track when I first heard the term “mud hen bars” two blissful months ago and tried my hand at creating my own!

Let me break this down for you and blow your soon-to-be-enlightened mind…

Mud Hen Bars 2--091114

Brown sugar meringue top. Yes, this is actually a thing. It is so much a thing, in fact, that these bars might just explode in the face of its ultimate thingy-ness. Crackle, meringue, yum!

Pumpkin Pie Layer Cheesecake Bars for #SundaySupper

Posted on by wallflourgirl

There’s something I’m determined to have before autumn hits this city a la Godzilla…

Pumpkin Pie Layer Cheesecake Bars 2--090514

A WHOLE WEEK OF UNINTERRUPTED SUMMER.

Of course, posting my first pumpkin recipe of the year implies, by tacit contract, that I acknowledge the arrival of fall. Don’t be deceived. It is not fall until I say it is….or until I stop eating double-scoop chocolate-dipped waffle cones of cookie dough / caramel swirl ice cream by the pound from Disneyland.

So basically, summer here will last ferrreverrrr.
