on a quest to make everyone I know fat

On my days off, I love to bake. Every since using Pinterest (side note: if you're on there, find me! charityvictoria) I've been finding amazing, over-the-top, delicious dessert recipes, and I just can't help myself! My boyfriend and roommates don't seem to mind, and it gives me something productive & enjoyable to do. Two treats I've made in the last week:


These "better-than-crack brownies" were a heavenly blend of chocolate and peanut butter, as well as several different textures. They are great to make a pan of for a large group or party, because they are so rich that you only need a small piece to get the full effect. I swear, when my boyfriend took a bite of one, he looked like he was going to get down on his knee and propose! Serve chilled, with a tall glass of milk.


How presh are these Oreo cupcakes? They have an Oreo baked into the bottom (Raleigh was a pal and helped me twist & seperate the Oreos for the bottoms/garnishes) and chunks of Oreo folded into the vanilla batter. The recipe has a frosting you can make, but I made it easier on myself and just bought some cream cheese frosting. These were a hit in my house, in my bf's house, at Starbucks, and even with my bf's mom! I highly suggest these for a birthday or picnic.
Both recipes are repinned on my 'bon appetit' board on Pinterest, come find them and if you have a Pinterest account, let me know. It is so addicting!
Also, my computer is on the fritz so my posting might be a bit sporadic. Forgive me!
