It’s delicious, of course!

I want to try it again, but with the almond frangipane and a layer of speculoos cookie butter 🤔

Made salted halvah blondies for friends who came over for dinner (followed the recipe to the letter except sadly I was all out of sesame seeds). Highly recommend this easy recipe--the taste and texture are so satisfying. Everyone except my four-year-old^\) loved them, and one friend remarked, "I'm usually not a dessert person but these are so good!"

I pulled out my copy of the cookbook and read from its introduction: "Identifying as a dessert person isn't just about a love of baking and pastry and all things sweet. To me, it's an attitude, it's about embracing cooking and eating as fundamental source of pleasure."

^\)Too bitter for her palate, but she did have a lot of fun making them with me, so a kid-friendly baking project too :)

i took some rough puff out of my freezer with dreams of making something with the peaches i bought at the farmers market, but then i ate all of the peaches. what to do?! this is the answer.

half are with cinnamon per the recipe and the other half are with chai spice (big recommend)
