Lasang Pinoy, Sundays: MELTed bliss

cookie-brownie-1These chocolaty, chewy, crunchy yet delightfully soft and moist all at the same time cookie brownie bars are such wonderful treats even for the non-chocoholics like me. I am highly recommending this extraordinary dessert or snack that is so easy to make, that anyone, even the kids can actually whip up. It’s incredibly simple yet they look so spectacular with the inevitable blending of its honey cookie dough and chocolate brownie colors . They are so rich and decadent but it doesn’t require any special skills and takes only minutes to make. I tell ya, it’s that awesome that you won’t have any left over.cookie-brownie-2It is very close to Weng’s Blondies, but this one is out of the box! Hah! Hee!Haw! Yuff, you read it right…another semi-home-made decadence. I wasn’t kidding when I said it’s that easy. Go grab a box of Betty Crocker’s Cookie Brownie Bars and you’re all set! It was something I’ve never seen in the supermarket before, naturally curiosity got the better of me and I bought right away.Yesterday, as we were on our way home from school, my daughter told me she has to bring something for a bake sale today and I thought this was the perfect solution. Another opportunity too to do some kitchen adventures with S. You don’t even need any special gadget such as a mixer… 1 egg, a couple of tablespoons water, 1 stick of butter and that’s it. I only added more chocolate chips in the mixture as always whenever I make out of the box brownies. I also omitted the nuts part [chopped walnuts or hazelnuts, which I always add too] since it’s not allowed in school…and some more for the MELTed chocolate /chocolate ganache on top. Two birds with one stone! One for the bake sale and one for LaPiS! Voila!cookie-brownie-3The chocolate chips that goes inside the mixture has also melted slightly and this adds to the light and chewy texture of the bars. The exciting thing about this is that it takes no time to whip up and the best thing about it? It is that it sinfully melts in your mouth literally, deliciously sinful…you won’t believe it’s one cheat eats. Plus it’s easy on the pocket too! I’d say less than 5 bucks and you’re good to go! As S said, all 12 cut bars were gone in no time. An instant hit to such discriminating youthful taste buds.Lapis-melted-bliss is a weekly thematic FOOD PHOTOGRAPHY meme, Pinoy style!
