so remember that time last spring when I got all the ingredients for slime for my boys because pinterest gave me the idea & because if I have boys... naturally they would love slime. think again. they wouldn't even touch the slime. i was so let down. so much so that i left the slime in a ziploc in my cabinet because i thought they might change their minds... that's a true story. that's also a pinterest #fail story.
well, last night we were having a dear friend over for coffee & dessert & instead of going with the same old same old from my cookbook i ventured into the land of pinterest. i had a few pinned recipes that looked amazing but in my season of life, it's usually 'let's play it safe so i don't waste time i don't even have to be doing this...' Alas, i found myself at the store buying a few ingredients and in my kitchen during 'naptime' whipping up the dessert. halfway in i realized, 'wow, this thing is involved.' but... i was halfway in... {insert instilled value from my dear parents of endurance} equaling- i must continue. and continue i did, deserted by my four year old, i made up in my heart & my mind this stinkin' dessert would be worth it.
worth it, it was! this was truly a pinterest success story. if you are having a friend for coffee & dessert or want to celebrate a birthday or have just had the worst day ever... i suggest eating this very dessert. it's off the charts, if i say so myself. {wink, wink}
it's called.... Caramel Apple Cheesecake Bars. And it's found here. Also, on my pinterest board...
Hey, here's to a new year of trying NEW things!
delightfully,
kristen
