do you think i could use the boxed brownie mix for the top part and keep the mocha shortbread base as is?

Amazingly enough, i did this recipe and for some odd reason, the brownie topping just wouldn’t harden! It remained goey … and my friends and family just loved it! I can send Brian a piece Just wonder why it came out goey, I even kept it in the oven for 15 more minutes and it still didn’t harden?!?
I love your blog & recipes, as soon as i see a new one, i rush off to give it a shot

These look amazing. Your pictures always make me wanna try your recipes. As for the stacked up magazines. I have the same problem. I literally have 1 drawer in the kitchen that’s overflowing with years old Bon Apetits that I have yet to go through. But I don’t want to throw them out because I know I’ll get through them… some day.

Mmmmm! I haven’t taken a peek at this month’s issue yet… still sitting in the monster pile of food mags that I (insanely) get every month. I can’t keep up.
These, however, look delicious

I made these as well but we really liked them. I also substituted some Italian espresso powder and added a bit more than the recipe called for so I could discern a decidedly coffee flavor. The end result for me was more of a cookie texture; however living in Colorado see many baked goods end up slightly different than the recipe developer expected. Our dry air and high altitude make baking a guessing game every time!

As much as I liked them, we loved the Pecan Shortbread in the same article; try those sometime…they disappeared and are so easy to make!

I have a similar problem with too many magazines, but I always think, one day they will come in handy! Haha These bars sound really unique–thanks for sharing!
