Holiday Recipe Swap: Kate from For Me, For You

The first Blogger in my holiday recipe series is Kate from For Me, For You. Kate's blog was one of the first blogs that got me hooked, so it's only fitting that she's the first one up! She takes amazing photos (as seen here and here), has an amazing jewellery collection that always sells out in minutes, has a cat that looks just like my old cat Shadow and has a boyfriend that looks very similar to my boyfriend (lots of tattoos, beard, black rimmed glasses, well ...that's it really) - so you see, she's totally rad. Reading her blog is often like having a conversation with a close friend because she's so cool and so real. Loves her!

Here's Kate!

My very favorite dessert recipe is one I haven't been making for long, but I make it so often that I know it by heart. I came across the recipe on The Black Apple that a friend tweeted and I've been making it often ever since. Not only because they're delicious, but because they're SO EASY to make. (Perhaps a little too easy?) The only thing I add to Emily's recipe is sea salt, which is actually pretty key to making these brownies go from delicious to mind blowing. But, if you're a party pooper and don't enjoy sweet and salty, I suppose I'll forgive you and you can make them sans sea salt (insert sad trombone sound here). Onward!

You'll need a medium sized pot, parchment, an 8" sq. baking dish - metal or glass, and parchment paper (don't skip out on the parchment paper, I find it pretty important to the recipe. Once I got cocky and didn't use it because I was too lazy to buy it and the brownies were not the same.)
