Chocolate Mint Squares, from The King Arthur Baking Companion
All in One Holiday Bundt Cake, Dorie Greenspan, Baking: From My Home to Yours
This is the third year I have made the chocolate mint squares. It is a very nice recipe - these are basically a gussied up brownie, but with less flour to get in the way. They consist of a brownie layer with peppermint flavor, then a white frosting (lots of peppermint), and then a drizzle of chocolate on top. If you like peppermint and chocolate, these are for you. And if you don't....what planet are you from?
The Bundt cake is from a cookbook that is one of my favorites. I made Dorie's Sour Cream Pumpkin Pie recipe for Thanksgiving, and it was yummy. She even convinced me to make my own crust - and we all survived. Anyway, this Bundt cake is quite good, and the name is well deserved - it has pumpkin, cranberries, apples, pecans, cinnamon, ginger and nutmeg all rolled into one little pan. If you don't think you are seeing snow outside after eating this, then you need to eat a little more.
Take good care.
