candy bar brownies As I’m sure you’ve already figured out from my party articles here, I love a good party! A celebration wouldn’t be complete without some delicious desserts, so I’m excited to share a few of my favourite sweet treats with you. First up are delicious candy bar brownies. You can serve these cold or warm, with a scoop of ice cream on top or piled high with chopped chocolate bars, a cup of coffee or a glass of milk. They go great with just about anything! Well, not so great with your latest diet plan, but everything is okay in moderation, right? Ingredients: • ¾ cup flour • ¾ cup cocoa, unsweetened • ¼ teaspoon salt • ½ cup unsalted butter, softened • ½ cup sugar • ½ cup brown sugar • 3 eggs • 2 teaspoons vanilla • 1 ½ cups chopped caramel chocolate bars (like Mars)

12. In a small saucepan, pour in the cream and bring to a boil on high heat. 13. Remove from heat and immediately pour over the chocolate chips. Let this sit for 5 minutes before stirring. 14. After 5 minutes, add the butter to the chocolate mixture and stir until well mixed. Pour over brownies. The ganache gets thicker as it cools. 15. Top with a scoop of vanilla ice cream and more chopped chocolate bars. Enjoy!
