Epic Dulce De Leche Brownies

Posted on December 5, 2013April 7, 2014by wallflourgirl

It’s that time of the year again. You know, December: the month of Christmas lights, good cheer, the smell of warm apple pie wafting around every street corner, the murmur of family chatter over holiday feasts, and the universally-acknowledged wish that we all had the metabolic capacities of high school swimmers again.

Yeah, that time.

These fudgy, rich, and not-a-dry-crumb-in-sight brownies made me wish really, really hard for that metabolism. Ditch the woolen socks (although after these I could use a roomier pair of jeans) and come onnnn, Santa!

In our extended household, holiday dinners are always something … Read more

Killer Cookies ‘N Cream Brookies and Oreo Butter: An Online Bake Sale for the Philippines

Posted on November 22, 2013April 7, 2014by wallflourgirl

How does one not lose all control when digging a fork into this warm, melting gooey Oreo lovers’ mess?

Oh, that’s right. One doesn’t. If you couldn’t tell by the gif.

But before I get started on these outrageous Oreo cookies ‘n cream brookies (yes, that’s a brownie + cookie smashed into one sugar-coma-inducing concoction), I want to tell you about a really important event, and the story behind why I decided to tackle these in the first place.

As anyone who even remotely follows world news knows, a terrible storm hit the Philippines a few weeks ago. While the

Peanut Butter Lovers’/Converts’ Chocolate Oat Squares

Posted on October 15, 2013April 7, 2014by wallflourgirl

Today, I want to introduce to you a new, critical, and really important new photoseries called:

TEN REASONS TO GET JIGGY WITH PEANUT BUTTER RIGHT NOW (MAYBE EVEN WHILE YOU READ THIS):

We all have that friend (or two, or ten) who, for some godforsaken reason, does not like peanut butter. Hopefully, you are not that friend (and if you are, I would recommend paying close attention to Reason #9 in this photostory–ahem). I personally LOVE PEANUT BUTTER.

If you are adverse to this creamy concoction of the nut butter gods, however, or you have that … Read more

Monday Morning Mocha ‘n Chocolate Cheesecakes

Posted on September 23, 2013April 7, 2014by wallflourgirl

I have been productive lately. That means a lot of productibaking, which means wading through a really, really big pile of reading. Check.

I also have another photo-story for all of you. Did you see my last one for the very best chewy Biscoff blondies? I don’t have too much time these days to write, but I still want to share my stories with all of you.

I don’t drink coffee or mocha, but I love coffee-flavored anything. And since caffeine and productivity are the order of the day, these mocha ‘n chocolate cheesecakes were born–perfect for … Read more

Fudgy Chocolate Tunnel Cake

Posted on June 10, 2013April 7, 2014by wallflourgirl

This is not a cake for the weak.

This is a cake for the fudgiest, moistest, chocolate-iest, veganest (if you want it to be!), cake that you will ever make, or ever be requested to make again, ever.

That huge GLOB of fudge you see running throughout the base of cake there? Ah-MAY-zing.

As I mentioned in my last post about possibly the best Oreo bar cookies in the world, I’m currently following a regimen of intense “productibaking.” I searched this term on the internet expecting to see some slang dictionary entry for it and I’m the first person to … Read more

Dreamy Raspberry Streusel Magic Bars

Posted on May 10, 2013April 7, 2014by wallflourgirl

What are you making for your mom or the mom-like figure in your life this Sunday?

I have to admit that I am not making these. Well, maybe I did….but there is no remaining physical evidence to indicate that I did.

That’s right. I ate my mom’s Mother Day baked goods gift.

Oops. Love you, mumsy.

The frontal lobe of my twisted brain reasons that I am flying my own sweet little self back home for Mother’s Day, and that my mom will therefore have everything she needs (i.e. me). Plus, she won’t miss what she never, er, knew … Read more

Choco-Peanut Butter Ying Yang Cookies

Posted on April 16, 2013April 7, 2014by wallflourgirl

NOTE: I was writing the following blog post when I learned the news about the Boston Marathon explosion. To those of you in Boston or with loved ones in Boston, you’re all in our hearts, thoughts, and sympathies. If you’d like to share your thoughts and condolences, please feel free to do so here. Boston, take care.

Instead of writing an alternate entry to commemorate the victims and their families, I have decided to go ahead and post my original entry. On a day of tragedy, there is that small hope of reminder that tells us to cling tightly to … Read more

Saltine Toffee ‘Crack’-ers: An Ode to a New DSLR!

Posted on December 30, 2012April 7, 2014by wallflourgirl

I have not danced around with such elf-like mirth since they announced the summer 2013 release of Sailor Moon.

Guess who is the proud new owner of a DSLR camera?

I’ll give you a hint.

ME. Me me me me me me me. Did I mention me?

That’s right, folks–in the shameless spirit of commercialism, selfishness, and dragon-like hoarding, I have graciously received a shiny new DSLR camera for Christmas.

Jigs may or may not have been performed under my Christmas tree this holiday season.

Did I mention the fact that I also received a Playstation 3 AND the Disney … Read more

Pumpkin Pound Cake Truffles with Gingerbread Cookie Crumbs

Posted on December 15, 2012April 7, 2014by wallflourgirl

I love the holiday season for many, many reasons. I’m sure you do, too.

Holding a very special place at the top of this list is the fact that, as soon as Thanksgiving ends, I get to cram my Santa elf-ear hat on my head, flip on the Christmas song station, and belt out the following line without the slightest trace of irony whatsoever:

“Your soul is an appalling dump heap, overflowing with the most disgraceful assortment of deplorable rubbish imaginable, mangled up in tangled up knots.”

Except “knots” sounds more like “naaaaAAAAAaaaahhhwtzzz,” and Thurl Ravenscroft sounds about a bajillion … Read more

Easy Saltine Chocolate Toffee Cookies

Posted on November 24, 2012April 7, 2014by wallflourgirl

It’s 6:42 PM and you’re running late for a potluck. You’ve just spent the past three hours completely absorbed in who-knows-what at your computer (well, you know, but it’s certainly not work-related and you certainly aren’t saying), when you look up with that sinking feeling in your stomach, and realize…

You forgot to make something to bring.

If you’re like me, however, and you get that weird feeling in your tummy, it’s probably because you’re so excited that you get to prepare, bake, and eat these bars within 20 minutes of start time.

Seriously.

These are known within my extended … Read more
