.jpg) Fudge . . . What could be better? Nothing. Absolutely nothing. Here’s the Brown Sugar Fudge . . . It’s creamy and addictive delicious. Good for you? Well maybe not, but I certainly can’t stay out of it. It tastes very similar to Boston Creams or Penuche. Let me show you where I found this… .jpg) Happy Labor Day Weekend everyone. THUNDER . . . LIGHTNING . . . RAIN That seems to be the recipe for today. Rain always puts me in the kitchen mood. Today . . . I made my homemade Salsa. I only had about 18 red, ripe tomatoes, but that was perfect. There are probably about… 
This looks amazing, and your photos are incredible!September 3, 2012 – 10:12 am 
A great looking dish. I lived in Italy and would probably agree that bottled tomato sauce would be outlawed.September 2, 2012 – 2:44 am  Cake. “You CAN have your cake and eat it too.“ Remember that! I told you recently what my favorite Pasta dish is. Now . . . I’ll show you my favorite Cake or Cupcake and frosting. It’s this! Usually referred to as German Chocolate Cake. FYI: 1852 - Sam German created the mild dark baking chocolate… 
These cupcakes are absolutely amazing! I’m delighted with them! I’ve featured this recipes on my blog! I hope you don’t mind! If you don’t agree with that please contact me and I will remove it. All the best.November 1, 2012 – 5:06 pm 
Hi Karen, Thanks so much! 
Dear Jonna, I just stumbled upon you at Pinterest and have spent over an hour looking at all your amazing recipes (and pictures!). As hard as it is to make yummy stuff, I think it is even harder to take good photos of the yummy stuff you’ve made! You have done an excellent job! I cannot wait to try these cupcakes and about 100 other things I have seen posted here! Thank you!!!September 27, 2012 – 5:43 pm 
What gorgeous pictures! This looks positively mouth-watering
This looks so oozing with delight. Not keen on the evaporated milk ingredient but there are alternatives for a caramel sauce and then I would be all over it. I am making zucchini and carrot cupcakes today with the classic cream cheese frosting.August 24, 2012 – 4:26 pm 
Hi Lynn, Good minds think alike! Thanks for leaving me a sweet note. 
Oh how do I LOVE thee? Let me count the WAYS! Okay….maybe one… We gotta be kindred spirits…cause this is THEE most favorite flavors of mine too! I use to work at a Baskin and Robbins when I was a teen….and I just couldn’t wait for the ice cream truck to deliver it’s loads of German Chocolate Cake flavor. Anything German Chocolate cake…is at the TOP of my list! I probably single handedly kept that flavor from being discontinued. lol. THANK YOU!August 23, 2012 – 2:38 pm .jpg) I’m often asked . . . “What is your favorite main dish recipe?” Here it is. It’s tough to take a good picture of Pasta with Sauce! At least it’s hard for me. The Sauce doesn’t come from a bottle off the grocery store shelf. It’s homemade and it’s really good. You can add in…
Hi Cindy, Thanks so much! You certainly made my day. JonnaMarch 8, 2013 – 12:13 pm 
I blogged about thhis pasta today. Check it out! I’d choose it for my last meal too. 
Can’t wait to try the chicken and bacon Alfredo pasta!December 5, 2012 – 11:22 am 
Sounds like a great dinner!August 21, 2012 – 11:59 am 
Oh my! This looks amazing!August 21, 2012 – 5:40 am .jpg) I love cupcakes. They are just darn cute. You get your very own mini cake . . . and nobody has to help you eat it! Don’t you love these new foil liners by Wilton. They hold up . . . keep their shape . . . and retain all of the color. You really…
Hi Christen, If you have the flavored oils, you can use any flavoring you choose. I’ve tried them all!!! JonnaNovember 15, 2012 – 12:18 pm 
I just made these and I could sit and eat all of them by myself!!! They are so delicious!!! I was wondering if you had tried doing the frosting with other flavors, like a lemon or even an almond/cherry (amaretto) flavor? by just replacing the lemon with the lime? 
Thanks for answering, I have one more question, can you use regular whipped cream? Sorry to bother you, but my family is slightly opposed to Cool Whip.August 21, 2012 – 12:25 am
Hi Spink, I just used Cool Whip. It’s really quite yummy even with Cool Whip instead of real Whipped cream. The frosting holds up well.
When you say frozen whipped topping, what do you mean? Could you give me your favorite brand?August 20, 2012 – 12:51 am
Hi Heather, I used a Wilton 1M tip. It’s my favorite! I guess the one thing that is really important is to only fill your tins 2/3 full….don’t overfill, or they won’t be pretty. I use a large ice cream scoop for the regular size cupcake. JonnaAugust 13, 2012 – 6:50 pm 
These look delicious! I absolutely LOVE everything that I have tried from your blog. I was wondering if you would tell me what tip you used for these cupcakes and what your favorite tips are for cupcakes, in general? I am going to be making a TON of cupcakes for my sons first birthday party (many of your recipes, bytheway) and I just seem to struggle to make them look good. I am hoping figuring out the right tip might help.August 11, 2012 – 8:46 pm
They are so pretty, and sound delicious too!August 11, 2012 – 6:20 am
Hi Jo, Sue and Carol, Yes…..fold it into the lime juice and condensed milk. Sorry, that’s what I get for always 
In the directions for your Lime Fluff Frosting you don’t say what to do with the container of whipped topping…. Do you just fold it into the condensed milk after it is beaten? 
Your cupcakes are darling, perfect! The recipe sounds delicious!August 10, 2012 – 12:42 am  Before I head outside to mow the lawn and pick the peas . . . I wanted to share a a delicious little melt in your mouth, jam filled Shortbread Cookie. I’m sorry, I simply have not had the time to plate & style . . . so here is the rough draft straight from… 
These look delicious! says chill for 30 minutes but does not specify how long to bake for?? Let me know! Cant wait to bake them! Thanks! 
These look great just the way they are, busy lady! I’ll try it for Christmas.August 9, 2012 – 11:09 pm
What a great idea! I would never have thought of decorating them in such a simple way. When eating them, there would be the anticipation of the mouthful that contained the topping. Yum.August 9, 2012 – 3:26 pm
Jonna, 
Been making these for years! They are great for Christmas. If you want to fancy them up, you can cut on the diagonal, sprinkle the edges with colored sugar and use anything to fill it. I use grape jam and peanut butter chips with chopped peanuts, or cherry jam with mini chocolate chips. You can use about anything. We call them Split Seconds because you get so many cookies in such a short time!August 9, 2012 – 5:44 am 
This looks AMAZING! I’m going to make it sometime this week. Thanks for sharing! (I love your blog by the way. All the recipes are delicious and not terribly difficult!)August 8, 2012 – 3:35 pm .jpg) What do Caramels and the Garden have to do with one another? Nothing! That’s precisely the way I wanted it. Homemade Caramels are a staple in this house, and I often try new recipes. I already knew that this one was a winner, since my good friend Teressa brings these at Christmas. Since I officially…
Oh the beauty of a home garden to wander in. And thank goodness for your husband. Lovely garden shot.August 8, 2012 – 4:37 am 
Thanks for showing us your garden, it’s beautiful! You must have your hands full at harvest time! The caramels sound good too:)August 7, 2012 – 11:20 pm
Hi Eva….I use light Karo. 
This is definitely a family favorite 
Hi- these look delish!
I would love to make those caramels for Christmas gifts! That’s quite a garden you have there! I would love all those fresh vegetables!August 7, 2012 – 5:26 am 
Your garden is beautiful! I’m soooo jealous! Also, lovely caramels .jpg) It’s hot. It’s muggy today. I picked and picked and picked Raspberries early this morning. Visions of this delectable frozen Cheesecake swirled in my head. They just kept swirling . . . so I made it! Since we have an ample amount of Raspberries at my house . . . I used Raspberries. You…
Hi Janelle, Yes…they freeze very well. Just make sure that you keep them in a well-sealed freezer container. JonnaAugust 23, 2012 – 12:31 pm 
Do these freeze well long-term? Like, if I made a batch in cupcake tins to keep in the freezer for when I want a fruity cheesecake dessert, does it keep well for a few months?August 22, 2012 – 9:37 pm 
I’ve nominated you for “Very Inspiring Blogger Award”! Come check it out at http://www.twogirlscookingblog.com/2012/08/very-inspiring-blogger-award/ 
This looks good and healthy! I wish I could make it right nowAugust 2, 2012 – 6:38 am 
OHHHHH how I wish I was there to have a bite or two of that. I am so hot right now, and tired, It would be a great reward after a long day. MMMMMMMmmmmmmmmmm
I wish you were her too!
I wish you were here as well Jen! 
I love that this is frozen! It makes it so refreshing for summer. I wish I was at your house picking fresh berries with you!July 25, 2012 – 10:27 am 
It looks beautiful and I’m so jealous of your abundance of raspberries!July 25, 2012 – 2:32 am .jpg) Two things on my mind. It simply won’t hold more than two things at once. 1. Thank You, Thank You, Thank You to all of you that voted for my simple Blog over at BABBLE. I was beyond thrilled to find out that I made the top 100 Food Blogs! see . . . you… 
New follower here, found you on the Babble list!August 2, 2012 – 7:13 am 
Yay! You’re back! I’m sorry you were sick and I’m glad you’re all better. Thanks for the yummy recipe!July 24, 2012 – 10:44 pm 
So happy to hear you are feeling better. These are a must in our house at Christmas “Magic Cookie Bars”. Love this recipe. I’m with you about snakes I go into full panic mode when I see one, I’m terrified of them. Congrats on making the top 100 you definitely deserve it.July 22, 2012 – 8:07 am 
We call them ‘Drizzle Bars’ because you drizzle the sweetened condensed milk over everything. Yum! Glad you are healthy again and congrats on making the top 100 list!July 22, 2012 – 8:02 am
We always called these bars Santa Snacks because my Mom mostly made them for Christmas when we were growing up. I love them! Congrats on making Babble’s Top 100!
Down here in New Zealand, I have never heard of these bars but I sure like the idea of the marshmallow layer. Congratulations on making the top 1oo bloggers – quite an honour.July 22, 2012 – 3:40 am 
Yep, we call them Magic Squares. Actually, my uncle has always called them Better-Than-Sex Cookies. It was particularly amusing when we were little kids and he called them that – NOT! If you add butterscotch chips, they become what we call 7 Layer Bars. Any way you make ‘em, I love ‘em!July 21, 2012 – 5:42 pm .jpg) HAPPY 4TH OF JULY! It’s sunny, hot, windy and picture perfect for a hometown parade. My heart goes out to so many families who have recently lost homes to wild fires. It will be difficult for so many, to celebrate this 4th of July Birthday. We need to offer support and keep them in our… 
Rustic pies are my favorite–this does look delicious.July 13, 2012 – 6:14 pm
This is gorgeous!July 13, 2012 – 4:56 am 
This rustic pie looks amazing, and you’re right, totally easy to make. I’m drooling over the delicious sugar-coated crust. Yum! I hope you start to feel better.July 6, 2012 – 6:58 am
That looks amazing!July 4, 2012 – 6:05 am 
It looks scrummy!! Happy 4th July from across the pond! xxJuly 4, 2012 – 3:18 am

Jennifer - I followed the recipe to a T and got very sugary fudge–as in sugary/grainy. Any suggestions? It still tasted okay, but the texture was not smooth at all.
Hi Jennifer,
Gosh….that has happened to me before when making fudge.
Make sure that if you try it again, you do not touch or stir the mixture until it’s cooled as the recipe directions state.
Also, don’t scrape the sides of your pan.
If I see sugar crystals forming on the sides of my pan, I take a pastry brush and very hot water and melt the sugar away.
Also, make sure that you are using a good HEAVY large pot….I love the cast iron Porcelain Martha Stewart pots….they are well work the money.
Macy’s always has great sales on them. They will last forever!!!
Good luck,
JonnaDecember 2, 2012 – 5:10 pm
Nancy - Jonna, I love that you share your time and recipes with us. I’m curious were you found the recipe book.

Jen Cummings - Those Halo bars look delicious! I would love to win any of them that don’t have peanuts or apple products. Those are lethal allergies around here. (weird, I know). So many companies have started using apple juice as a sweetener and then we can’t eat them! Give me good ole’ sugar any day.
I love your main dishes because I’m always looking for new dinner ideas. Our fav recipe of yours is your teriyaki chicken bowls. Yum! Thanks for sharing your talents with the world!

Just wanted to say that my daughters and I love love your blog!
I have a son serving in Africa and we have sent him a few of those pro bars. He has loved them. He doesn’t get much protein there, so we send a few every so often. He has liked all of them. I myself haven’t tried them, I guess I will have to.
thanks for all your great recipes! I really love your main dishes!
Have a great day!

I have tried many recipe’s with many modifications and just can’t seem to get them right! (Close, my family says, but not “right”).

Lisa Hathaway - I would love to try out the original Pro Bars. We’re always on the lookout for a healthy snack bar that my husband will eat – something deliciously fruity and not too sweet.
I love your blog and frequently come browse for recipes. Right now I’m on the lookout for “cool summer meals” because when it’s hot I don’t feel like heating up the house by cooking a warm dinner. Any ideas? Also – we have a new baby, so quick, easy dinner ideas are always welcome, too!September 4, 2012 – 3:17 pm
Margaret - The Fruition would be perfect as a snack at school! (The fudge probably would be, too, but I bet the Fruition would be a tad bit healthier.)
What a fun giveaway and recipe, Jonna!September 4, 2012 – 3:16 pm

Janna - It’s so crazy that this is your post today. I was just sitting here searching for healthier alternatives for meal replacement and on-the-go snacks! I would love to try peanut butter choco chip simply real bar and the smores Halo bar! Of course, who wouldn’t want to try all of them?September 4, 2012 – 2:09 pm
NaDell - I haven’t heard of those before. I’ll have to see if they are in the stores I go to yet (sometimes we are behind on new things!)
