Pumpkin Brownies
These are incredible! I've made them 3 times since the end of October, and i am not usually a chocolate/brownie "person"...although i LOVE pumpkin desserts! The first time i made them i followed the directions exactly (except i omitted the walnuts and added ground ginger to the pumpkin half). When i added the cocoa to the the one half, it became sooo thick i could just barely spread it. And when i added the pumkin to the other half, it became very runny and there was TONS. Made the layering process a little tricky! HOWEVER they turned out absolutely amazing, if not a little cake-like. The next time i made them, i split the base batter unevenly so there was a little more batter for the chocolate half. Both halves were much easier to work with this way ( i added slightly more cocoa powder/pumpkin puree too.). In an emergency i had put them in the fridge to cool the second time i made them, and when i tried one it was MUCH chewier than the first batch which was a pleasant surprise! Maybe due to the cooling process? ANYway, these are one of the best desserts i've ever had, and one of the only things i've baked where i just can't seem to mess them up! A winner for sure ( And wonderful for impressing people ;-D ) !!

Spinach Stuffed Chicken Breast
this is delicious and open to interpretation which i like...i have trouble following ANY recipe to the "T"! one of the only changes i made to this one, however, is that instead of going through the trouble of pounding and rolling the chicken, i just cut a pocket into the breasts and stuffed them, then wrapped with bacon etc. This was WAY easier for me, and although i would probably pound 'n' roll if i was making it for company, i prefer this method for a weekday supper. And yes. Marinate in buttermilk first....good tip, whoever mentioned that!

One Bowl Chocolate Cake III
this was REALLY easy abd REALLY good! I am a terrible baker, but i couldn't mess this up! I used diluted coffe in place of water and a full cup of cocoa powder....yum! 1 hour in a bundt pan. Chocolate glaze: mix cocoa, powdered sugar and a little milk until desired consistency. drizzle over cooled cake!
