Thanks for all the suggestions on what brands and what type of almond milk to buy. I’ve officially finished the first carton and am ready for more, but until then I’m still stuck in this brownie/blondie mode.

It’s a basic butterscotch bar made with brown sugar, butter, etc., but with the addition of glucose syrup, designed to keep the bars moist and fresh. Saturday I baked a modified half batch of the bars and [...]

Today’s recipe caught my eye for two reasons. After making Nicole’s white chocolate brownies, I wanted to try a different version. Plus, I liked the idea of brownie wedges. On a table full of desserts, triangular things always stand out. In fact, I might do my next batch of regular chocolate brownies …
