Chewy Buttercrunch Squares




OK, so I tried two recipes from Baking by Flavor this week. This bar cookie is a chewy blondie that has been richly flavored with toasted almonds, sweetened coconut, almond extract, and my candy bar downfall, chocolate covered toffee bars, a.k.a. Heath bars. Actually, in this case, I used D'aim bars, which I just happened to pick up at a recent trip to Ikea. Yum. Ms. Yockelson's book is a must for anyone who enjoys baking. She's divided the chapters by flavor such as lemon, spice, vanilla and buttercrunch, depending on the type of sweets you're in the mood for, and every recipe I've tried so far has been fabulous.

    I only wish El Guapo could get away with calling his food "fabulous".

    Mucho Amor,

    Lo lamento El Guapo. Pero, why can't you call your food fabulous? Is it because no puedes cocinar? Or because fabulous is a word that's not very, how do you say, macho?
