Reminder, we find out if we are having another little man or girl on Thursday! I'll be sure to post the details...stay tuned.
Until then, bake up some of these bars. They won't last you till Thursday, but hey, it's the thought that counts. I found this recipe on the back of a bag of chocolate chips one day this summer, and substituted the ricotta cheese for the eggs, as I was out. I had NO idea if they would turn out, but oh....my....gosh.....they did.
I now feel like making a pan of lasagna, just so I'll have extra ricotta hanging out.
Ricotta Filled Chocolate Chip Bars
1 1/4 c. flour
1/2 t. salt
1/4 t. baking soda
1 stick butter, melted
3/4 c. sugar
3/4 c. ricotta cheese
1 1/2 t. vanilla
chocolate chips
Mix all wet ingredients together, then add dry. Stir until just combined, fold in chocolate chips. Spread in an 8x8 sprayed baking pan. Bake for 18 minutes at 375 degrees.
The easiest bar ever!
Mmmyum! Happy substitution:)
ReplyDeleteI was just about to make these because I thought I had a half-empty container of ricotta in my fridge...turns out it was moldy! Dang it! I will be making these soon though...they look tasty!
ReplyDeleteAwwwee - do you think it will be a boy or girl?

ReplyDeleteI'm so behind on reading blogs, but am glad I found this recipe, even if it was a few days late. These bars look fantastic! PS, congrats on your baby girl!
ReplyDeleteThis sounds fantastic. Ricotta is wonderful and putting it in brownies can only make them good.
