Sydney took this picture and it is how I am feeling today!!!
Okay so I made orange brownies today and they turned out so good I am going to post about them! These are Mikes favorite. I got the recipe from Paula Dean. Right now they are cooling and I cannot wait to eat one. I will put the recipe below but I have to warn you they are super good and the whole pan will disappear in one sitting if you are not careful. They are not cholatey so the name is deceiving but they are delicious all the same! I hope yours turn out as good as mine! Happy Brownies!
Orange Brownies
Recipe courtesy Paula Deen
I've had the opportunity to make so many new friends in the restaurant. Robin Wilson from Altamonte Springs, Florida, is one of those. Robin recently was one of a hundred finalists in the 39th Pillsbury Bake-off, where she won a side-by-side refrigerator and a trip to San Francisco. As she and her husband were enjoying lunch at The Lady and Sons, she mentioned her Orange Brownies, and she was happy to share the recipe. Thanks, Robin, and good luck to ya in your next bake-off! Get that gold, girl!
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
2 cups sugar
1 teaspoon salt
1 cup (2 sticks) butter, softened
4 eggs
2 teaspoons pure orange extract
1 teaspoon grated orange zest
Glaze:
1 cup confectioners' sugar
2 tablespoons orange juice
1 teaspoon grated orange zest

mmmm...yum. I'm supposed to make a dessert for a baby shower tonight...and those would be perfect...if I had an orange. If dustin gets home early maybe i'll make him go get one at the store. Or maybe my neighbor has one....
hope you're having a good day. We are making blankets today....to get ready for the impending cold.
Ok....so what's up with Kirkwood, MO??? http://www.breitbart.com/article.php?id=D8UM090O0&show_article=1
Sounds yummy. I'll definitely give them a try. I like Paula Dean's recipes. I have a few of hers that are now family favorites.
