White Chocolate Coconut Blondies

February 4, 2010 – 9:01 pm | by admin

9a72ad8b8d0200 2 150x100 White Chocolate Coconut Blondies

Would you believe it if I said I’ve never made Blondies before? I’ve never eaten one either. I know – how horrible. That’s what you’re thinking isn’t it? Because that’s what I’m thinking now that I’ve eaten one. Or a few. Or maybe one more than what a “few” means. So when I saw this recipe on my friend Jane’s site (If you like meal planning, head on over there sometime because Sunday nights she posts her weekly menu. Every single week. So fun!), I thought that I better make them. You know what was one of the most fun things about today though? I got to use my new camera to take pictures of this new (to me) recipe. And my very favorite 2 year old is finally interested in helping me out in the kitchen. I’ve enjoyed these fun times with Logan for several years that now I can share with Madeline too. I think she just does it because she’s finally realized that I let her lick the bowls, spoons, and whatever else she can get her tongue on. She’s a smart one. Picked up on that little tidbit from her brother, I think. I have now been initiated into Blondie…

Then I sprayed them with luster dust to make them shimmer. The purple flowers are sugar flowers and are edible too.

11292751f1nnesig 150x75 Sweet Treats Double Chocolate Tart

A dessert that is simple and elegant. Not to mention easy. And it can be completely assembled and ready to serve in about an hour and a half. Perfect if you’ve completely forgotten that you promised to bring dessert to a dinner party until the morning of… and if you’ve forgotten until 45 minutes before, just make the mousse. Plop it into martini glasses with a few fresh raspberries and call it a night. Double Chocolate Tart makes 10 servings For the Crust: 1 package Famous Wafers. 1/2 cup sugar 1 stick butter, melted Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Blitz the famous wafers in a food processor until uniformly ground, maybe 20 seconds. Add the sugar and the melted butter and blitz again to combine. Dump the mixture into a 10 inch tart pan with a removable bottom. Or use a shallow pie plate. It won’t look as cute, but it will be just as delicious. Use a short,straight-sided glass to mash the crust into an even layer across the bottom and up the sides of the pan. Use the flat of your hand to create a flat top even with the top of the tart pan. Bake for 10-12 minutes. Crust should be firm and fragrant but not any darker than when you started. Cool to room …
