I have a small confession to make. I have a secret stash of Reese’s Mini Peanut Butter Cups on the top shelf of my pantry. I usually access it nightly after the kids have gone to bed. But today I had this thought.. wouldn’t these little peanut butter cups be so cute and so good inside a mini brownie? It would be just enough brownie to suspend the mini peanut butter cup just perfectly. Next thing I knew I was baking up a batch and popping them in my mouth. Heavenly.
The nice part about this recipe is that the baking time is only about 15 minutes and the batter can be prepared in a mixing bowl. No special mixer required. [click to continue…]

Caramel sauce is a wonderful sweet condiment to have on hand. The beauty of making your own sauce is how simple it truly is. A candy thermometer is helpful but not necessary if you have attentive eyes and a wooden spoon or whisk ready to be used in a seconds notice.
The clear benefit of having a candy thermometer is knowing when to turn off the heat so your caramel does not burn. You want to cook the sugar syrup to 350 degrees. When I make caramel sauce, I just watch the sugar water change colors and from there I move quickly.
