     If we are counting only blog posts I did in 2017, the #1 blog post was my Chocolate Cobbler recipe.   It is so decadent and delicious and pairs perfectly with a scoop of vanilla ice cream

   The 2nd most viewed blog post of 2017 was my Fruit Cobbler.   This is an easy fruit cobbler recipe that I have used for years.  This time I used Blueberry Pie filling but I have also made this with fresh peaches, home canned apple pie filling and fresh blackberries...it turns out great every time!

  The 3rd most viewed blog post of 2017 was for my Cake-like Brownies.    My family loves brownies.  Usually we eat my brownies that are moist and chewy but occasionally, we crave these cake like brownies.  Both are delicious but it just depends on our mood which we want.

      My 4th most popular blog post of 2017 was for my Pumpkin Sheet Cake.  This Pumpkin Sheet Cake is super moist and is packed with yummy pumpkin goodness that is topped with a cinnamon cream cheese frosting that is simply divine!  This cake is right up my husband's alley.  If you could smell this cake right now, y'all would be begging for a slice!  Oh, by the way, did I mention that it takes less than one hour, start-to-finish, to make?!  It's true!

     And finally our 5th most popular post of 2017 was my Pumpkin Supreme Pie.   Our family loves this pie.  I try to make it when we are having special company over for dinner or on Thanksgiving but my family would love to have this at least once a week.  It is a perfect pumpkin pie but elevated to a whole new level. It looks lovely and tastes delicious!

Cake-like Brownies

       My family loves brownies.  Usually we eat my brownies that are moist and chewy but occasionally, we crave these cake like brownies.  Both are delicious but it just depends on our mood which we want.
 

 

Cake-Like Brownies

2 c. flour
2 c. sugar
1 c. butter
1/2 c. cocoa
4 eggs 
4 tsp. vanilla

    Mix the ingredients together and pour into a 9"x13" pan and bake in a preheated 350 degree oven for about 22 minutes.  You can check to see if it is done if you stick a fork in it and the tines come out clean.

      As the brownies cool, prepare the icing.  Don't leave out the icing.  The icing totally completes these brownies.

Icing  

3 c. powdered sugar
1/4 c. butter
1/4 c. milk
1/4 c. cocoa
dash of salt

        Mix all together.  It will be thick and apply it very heavily to the cooled brownies.  So good!
