This week's club:Baked recipe was Grasshopper Bars. These were so amazing, like an Andes Mint Chocolate in brownie form. I couldn't stop eating them. The rich, chewy chocolate brownie, light-as-air mint buttercream and crunchy, melt-in-your-mouth ganache worked in perfect synergy to create a delicious dessert that's both decadent and comforting at the same time. These are a take on the classic Grasshopper Pie, which is typically associated with vintage cooking. Make no mistake though, these are for a completely new generation and I, for one, will be making these often from now on.
This recipe can be found on this week's host's blog, as well as in the Baked Explorations book.
