Some recipes are the ripe, succulent fruits of pure inspiration. (Apple Pie Babycakes) Some recipes are the product of craving (PB&J Pretzel Swirl Brownies) or commission (Pumpkin Whoopie Pies). Some recipes are made for an occasion. (Chocolate Pumpkin Cheesecake Layer Cake) Some recipes are what happens when a "What if...?" actually reaches fruition. (Childhood Sandwich Supreme Cupcakes) And some recipes happen because you have surplus ingredients lying around leftover from previous projects that you're sick of looking at in the pantry and just want to get rid of. Irritation is the mother of invention, as they say. (Wait. That's not what they say? Oh. Well. Never mind.)

These fall into the final category.

Brownie Doctor: Oatmeal Cookie Brownies

WE'VE MOVED! Now redirecting you to our new page.

This week on The Batter Thickens, we're experimenting with nuclear physics.

Ok no, we're totally not. Are you kidding?? You wanna talk butter and sugar reactions? I'm your girl. Nuclear reactions? Yeah... that's outta my league. Big time. (We're not going to talk about that one time freshman year when I thought astronomy would be, like, looking at pictures of stars and saying things like, "Isn't space AWESOME? It's just so HUGE" and not, you know, what it actually is, which is apparently astrophysics. Let's just say it wasn't pretty.)

So nuclear physics is off the table. But I didn't totally lie to you. We ARE messing around with fusion. Fusion of fudgy chocolate brownie and chewy oatmeal cookie, that is. Because who needs star stuff when you have chocolate? (Hint: That was a rhetorical question.)
