The other day, two of my favorite people knocked on my door. Adria & Michelle left me with a very delicious treat. Once this delectable bar was gone, I quickly sent a text out for the recipe.

    I’ve never tasted a better brownie than your Katherine Hepburn recipe – and I can’t imagine any brownie being any better….EVER! But, I’ll give these a try…I’m an Almond Joy fanatic! Thanks!ReplyCancel

  • Cara S - 06/01/2013 - 5:49 pm

    Looks fabulous, but I have a couple questions!

    In the Almond Joy Brownie recipe directions, it does not say to return the brownies to the oven after sprinkling on the coconut and chocolate and pouring on the condensed milk. I am assuming you need to, as mentioned in the Hepburn recipe adjustment?

    Also, when did you add the Heath chips – with the chocolate and coconut, or on top of the condensed milk with the almonds? About how many chips did you use? And did you use the plain toffee chips or the chocolate-toffee chips? I think either would probably work, but since I need to buy some before I try this, I thought I would go with your tried-and-true.

    Thanks!

    CaraReplyCancel

    • Get Off Your Butt and BAKE - 06/01/2013 - 7:18 pm

      Hi Cara,

      I updated the recipe with better instructions! I made the square 8×8 pan of Hepburn Brownies. I used approx. 1/2 cup of chocolate toffee chips, 1/2 cup of semi sweet
      mini chocolate chips, 1 cup of chopped almonds + 1/2 cup of chopped almonds in the batter. Since I made a small pan of brownies, I used half the coconut it called for,
      and 1/2 can of Condensed Milk. Yum!

    Wow these look sinful. I gathered up ingredients last night to create a brownie for my husband for father’s day and now you’ve really got my wheels spinning. These sort of remind me of Magic Bars which my family gobbles up in no time flat but with a brownie. Great recipe – printed and saved.

  • Dani - 05/22/2013 - 4:50 pm

    I really like boiling water in the microwave for about 3 minutes and then putting my bread in the microwave to rise with the steaming glass of water. It really keeps the bread moist. But I agree that if you can shorten the rising process you should. I hate waiting for something that smells incredible.ReplyCancel

    • Get Off Your Butt and BAKE - 05/22/2013 - 4:54 pm

      Hi Dani,

      Great idea!
      With this bread, it’s pretty darn moist given that each slice is rolled in butter first.
      What a great idea for whole grain breads for a faster rise time.
      Thanks so much.

  • dee taylor - 05/27/2013 - 1:39 pm

    This is an extremely dumb question, but I’m a newbie when it comes to baking bread, so please be patient w/me! If I let the bread rise in the preheated oven, do I still cover it w/the sprayed plastic wrap (or anything else)? Also, how long does it take (approximately) to rise in the oven, and on the countertop? Thanks!ReplyCancel

    • Get Off Your Butt and BAKE - 05/28/2013 - 9:10 pm

      Hi Dee,

      Yes, Preheat the oven to 170 degrees, then TURN THE OVEN OFF. Place the covered loaf pan into the warm oven to rise. Make sure the oven is turned off. Let the bread rise until it’s at least double in size. This will take approximately 30 minutes to one hour. Before baking, take the bread out of the oven. Turn the oven on and pre-heat to 350 degrees. Once the oven is heated to 350, place the loaf pan back in the oven and bake for 30 minutes or until the bread is done.

      If you rise the bread out of the oven, it will take longer to rise. Approx is about one hour. Sometimes it will be longer, if the house temp is cold.
      Covering the bread while it rises, keeps the top of the bread from drying out. If it dries and forms a crust, it won’t rise correctly.

      Hope this helps,
      JonnaReplyCancel

      Hi Marci,

      The little bit of sugar & Cinnamon I had left, after dipping in butter and rolling in the cinnamon & sugar mixture,
      I just sprinkled over the top of the loaf! (I didn’t use any Brown sugar . . . promise.)

      JonnaReplyCancel

  • ann - 06/03/2013 - 7:54 am

    Hi Jonna, if I make the bread from scratch, would I need to keep it in the frig before slicing?ReplyCancel

    • Get Off Your Butt and BAKE - 06/03/2013 - 6:54 pm

      Hi Ann,

      It helps for the bread to be cold, so that you can slice the loaf in thin slices.
      With a loaf of homemade bread, I shape the bread dough, and place it in the freezer for 15 to 20 min. or so, then slice. It’s not absolutely required, but helps to keep the loaf shape!

  • Niki - 04/24/2013 - 10:53 am

    I’ve looked at ZipList and it is lacking too many options that an app I currently use, MENU-PLANNER has. MENU-PLANNER allows everything ZL does (except 1 thing which I will come back to), plus it allows you to SCAN bar codes, make changes to imported recipes, it keeps track of items in your pantry, and allows you to not just plan recipes but food items (for example, if you want to include a box of rice pilaf with your meal). It can track recent prices for items at different stores. It allows you to track calories or points for your menu as well. MENU-PLANNER seems to have so many more options that ZipList and without all the annoying advertisements. The only thing ZL has that MP does not is the ability to search local ads for sales, but since the creator of MP has always been open to suggestions and made improvement based on them, it could very well be coming soon.ReplyCancel

      I’ve seen this, and I agree it’s very nice!
      I don’t think it’s an option for WordPress websites as a plugin though – that allow viewers to print recipes, with the option to save with a grocery list as well.
      This was the main reason. It’s a app but not feasible for a website.
