and she's done it again. but i will not abandon this blog, not as long as there's good food to be made.
take yesterday for example. bagel panini with mmm sauce.
of all the kitchen gadgets i've been given, this panini press is my favorite. it makes getting a perfect sandwich easy.
the sauce oozes out and gets crispy on the grill, just like cheese would
except this is so much better
i also finally found a vegan brownie recipe! i have tried (with varying results) since i became vegan to recreate brownies the way they're supposed to be, but more often than not end up with something a bit more akin to a dense chocolate cake. not that there's anything wrong with a dense chocolate cake, but when you want a brownie, you want a brownie. but now, thanks to food gawker, i have found it. chewy, chocolatey, and with that delicate crust that is everything a brownie should be. my life will never be the same.
vegan brownies
recipe adapted from cooking vegan food up north
*3/4 cup sugar
*1/4 cup vegetable oil
*1 generous tsp vanilla extract
*1/2 cup almond milk
*6 oz vegan chocolate chips
*3/4 cup--minus 2 tablespoons--flour
*2 heaping tablespoons cocoa powder
first step, preheat the oven to 356° farenheit. meanwhile, blend the sugar into dust. this i believe is the secret to getting the crust. pour the sugar dust into a mixing bowl and add the oil and almond milk.
meanwhile, in a double boiler, melt the chocolate chips
this is quite possibly the fudgiest, most decadent brownie batter i have ever tasted.
bake for 45 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. eat immediately or wait for them to cool just a little bit.
this is the ultimate recipe. light crust, crispy corners, dense chocolate flavor. amazing straight out of the pan.
the only thing that could possibly make these better is (surprise!) vanilla coconut bliss ice cream
have a great weekend :)
cheers *^^
