This scrumptious recipe is made completely from scratch but it’s honestly super quick and easy to throw together. The brownies are made in one bowl – no mixer necessary, and can be mixed up and in  the oven in 5 minutes flat.

I am always on the lookout for quick and easy dinner recipes. We have six young children (including a new baby) so sheet pan dinners like this, and crock pot meals are my favorites right now!

All it takes is about five minutes of prep time and 25 minutes in the oven. Boom! Dinner is served!

I absolutely love when I make a meal that my whole family enjoys and asks me to make again. This was one of those dinners, and not only is it tasty – it’s quick, healthy, and only uses one pan!

Cinnamon rolls no longer need to be reserved for a special occasion.

Cinnamon rolls are one of my favorite things on the planet. Especially that bite right in the center where all the butter and sugar collect, and it’s all gooey and perfect…ahhhh, yum! They have to be smothered in frosting too. Boy, do I hate getting a cinnamon roll that’s stingy on the frosting.

These Easy No Yeast Cinnamon Rolls have everything I love in a traditional cinnamon roll, but they are SO much faster to make! There is no yeast in these rolls which means, no rising, no waiting. They are still made completely from scratch too – no box mixes here!! :

I’m sorry, but I am ready for all things Christmas!

It feels like it’s way too soon to be talking about Christmas, but that’s just because this year flew by!

But let’s face it, Christmas is next month and now is the time to start baking and stocking your freezer with lots of goodies.

Then when friends and family show up at your door in the midst of all of the holiday craziness, you will have plenty of festive treats to offer to them, like these heavenly Chewy Dark Chocolate Cranberry Cookies

Eggnog seems to be one of those things that people either love or hate. I don’t like to drink eggnog but I love the flavor. So baking things like this Eggog Texas Sheet Cake, or these (incredible) Eggnog Blossoms with it is the perfect solution! Then whatever is left in the carton, my kids happily drink. They talk about “neggnog” for months afterwards, and then when it arrives back on store shelves the next Christmas, they are thrilled!

I always get excited too, when eggnog season rolls back around. It just tastes like Christmas time, and I love coming up with new ways to use it in treats for gifts, parties, and my massive Christmas cookie trays that I create each year.

Do you do that too? Make ridiculous amounts of cookies, candy, and fudge each Christmas? I make one for my family, one for the get together with my husbands side of the family, and one for my side of the family. And usually I end up with such mass amounts of treats that every party we attend, every neighbor, and our church all end up with their own trays as well. I don’t know why I do this. I mean, I bake all year round. I bake for a living. Yet I still get carried away this time of year. I don’t hear anyone complaining, so this is just the way it’s going to stay.

Now because I have a slight obsession with brownies, it was only a matter of time before I came up with an eggnog version. They have the chewy, fudgy texture of a brownie, and the flavor of an eggnog spiked sugar cookie! These are truly delicious and they are a really easy, fun new way to enjoy this seasonal flavor! You can certainly eat them plain, but I thought a glaze seemed like the perfect special touch to take these brownies to a new level of yum! A little dash of nutmeg on top, and these are holiday party ready!

Ingredients

Brownies

• 3/4 cup unsalted butter
• 8 oz white chocolate
• 1/2 cup eggnog
• 1 1/3 cup granulated sugar
• 2 eggs
• 1/2 tsp salt
• 1/4 tsp rum extract
• 2 1/4 cup all purpose flour

Glaze

• 2 cup powdered sugar
• 3-4 tbsp eggnog
• nutmeg for dusting on the pot

Instructions

Brownies

• Preheat oven to 350
• In a glass bowl, microwave the white chocolate, butter, and eggnog about 90 seconds, stirring every 30 seconds until melted and smooth.
• Mix in the sugar, eggs, salt, and rum extract.
• Stir in the flour just until incorporated - you don't want to mix too much air into the batter.
• Spread evenly into a 9x13" greased pan. Bake for 18-20 minutes or until toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean or with fudgy crumbs. Be careful not to over bake or the brownies will not be fudgy. Let cool completely.

Glaze

• In a medium bowl, whisk together the powdered sugar and eggnog until smooth. You want a thick, glue like consistency. Add more eggnog if too thick. Spread over cooled brownies, and sprinkle a bit of nutmeg on top, if desired. Store in the refrigerator.
