Baseball Pretzel Bats and Baseball Cake Pops!

The World Series is almost here which is a huge deal for my Italian NY hubs. He is a big Yankee fan and was a bit devastated with his teams last two losses and Jeters broken ankle, so I decided a little baseball fun was in order. I made some great game day treats that are so easy and can be customized to your team colors. After he saw my efforts to cheer him up, he told me he had a Yankee epiphany, that they were going to come back for the win! I cant help but be charmed by my baseball loving man. Find out how to make these fun baseballs and bats after the jump

Pretzel Bats

1 cup semi sweet chocolate chips

12 pretzel rods

1 tablespoon vegetable oil

sprinkles

wax paper

Place a glass bowl on top of a pot of simmering water, making sure the bowl does not touch the water (or use a double boiler). Pour in the chocolate chips and stir frequently until almost melted, then add the oil and stir until smooth and fully melted. Dip each pretzel into the chocolate and use the spoon to cover. Tap any excess chocolate and cover with sprinkles in your teams colors. Place on wax paper to dry for about 3 hours.

Baseball Cake Pops

I bought a pan like this bake pop pan to make cake pops. I normally make cake from scratch, but decided to follow some tips by using a box (with no hydrogenated oils). I made the box chocolate cake with 1/2 the amount of oil, 3 eggs, 1/2 the amount of water and swapped it with milk, then added a package of chocolate pudding. Then I sprayed the inside of the pans with baking spray (with flour) and the outside of the top pan with regular cooking spray. I cooked them at 350 for 20 minutes, but I have a feeling they could have come out at 18 minutes. My original plan was to melt white chocolate, but my chocolate must have been old because it curdled so I used frosting and piped on a string of red to make it look like a baseball.

Crazy Good: Snickers Bar Stuffed Cookies

You may have felt the Earth shift slightly over the weekend. This was because I actually went to bake cookies and only had a half bag of chocolate chips ready. I mean, what kind of baker does that?!!! Apparently pregnesia (the common affliction of memory loss amongst pregnant women) has spread into my grocery list. Luckily, however, when I was in the middle of baking my intended chocolate chip cookies I was able to salvage some Snickers from my freezer and chop those up to make up for the lack of chips. Amazingly, when baked into the cookies they tasted incredible; in some ways, even better than chocolate chips! Instead of stirring the bar chunks into the cookies, I wrapped the dough around them so the cookies were stuffed. The caramel, chocolate, and nougat melted beautifully into the cookie and tasted positively heavenly. While they were decadent to be sure, I am sure Ill be making these again. After all, why not treat yourself once in a while!

Snickers Bar Stuffed Cookies

2 sticks unsalted butter, softened

1 1/2 cups light brown sugar, packed

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

2 large eggs

2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour

1 teaspoon baking soda

1 teaspoon kosher salt

2 medium Snickers Bars, chopped into 1-inch pieces

1/4 cup chocolate chips

1. Preheat the oven to 350F.

2. In a stand mixer beat the butter and sugar together for at least 2 minutes. Then add the eggs and vanilla and beat for five full minutes.

3. With the mixer on low add in the flour mixture and mix until just combined. Stir in the chocolate chips. Pinch off 2-inch pieces of the dough and press two pieces of the chopped Snickers into the center. Then wrap the dough around the Snickers to close the cookie. Place the dough ball on a lined baking sheet, seam side up.

4. Bake the cookies for about 12-14 minutes. Some of the Snickers Bar will ooze out during baking but that is OK, that is all part of the fun!

Chocolate Chip Zucchini Brownies

Got zucchini? One of my favorite things to do with a summer surplus (besides a dense chocolate cake, muffins or a loaf) is to make brownies. These are like a cross between fudgy brownies and dense chocolate cake itll cure your craving for chocolate, make the kids happy when they come home from school, and use up some of the zucchini hiding out in your fridge, all in one go.

Grate zucchini with its thin skin on it contains so many of the vegetables nutrients, and has such a fine texture that youll never notice it. Chocolate chips add an extra chocolate dimension to these brownies, but feel free to substitute chopped walnuts or pecans or add both.

Chocolate Chip Zucchini Brownies

1 cup all-purpose flour
1/2 cup cocoa
1/2 tsp. baking powder
1/4 tsp. salt
1/3 cup butter, melted
1/2 cup sugar
1/2 cup packed brown sugar
2 large eggs
1 tsp. vanilla
1 packed cup grated raw, unpeeled zucchini (1 small)
1/2 cup chocolate chips

Preheat oven to 350F.

In a large bowl, combine flour, cocoa, baking powder and salt; set aside.

In a medium bowl, stir together melted butter, sugar, brown sugar, eggs and vanilla until smooth. Add the egg mixture and the zucchini to the flour mixture and stir by hand until almost combined; add chocolate chips and stir just until blended.

Pour into an 8 x 8 pan that has been sprayed with nonstick spray. Bake for 30 minutes, until the edges are springy to the touch but the middle is still soft a slight indentation should be left when touched. Do not overbake! Cool in the pan on a wire rack or eat them warm from the pan.

Makes 12-16 brownies.

Pecan Blondies

Who doesnt love the taste of cookie dough? When I make chocolate chip cookies I love the dough without the chocolate chips. Apparently, Im not alone! My friend Chef Dawn Viola also loves the vanilla and brown sugar infused flavors in Americas favorite cookies. Perhaps that is how the blondie was invented.

The flavors in blondies arent overwhelmed by chocolate. The texture is reminiscent of a brownie.. warm and chewy but the flavors taste a lot like that spoonful of cookie dough batter you snagged while mom was looking the other way.

To see the detailed recipe, please CLICK HERE to visit Dawns original recipe on her website.

1. Add all the wet ingredients to a blender or food processor. Blend until smooth.

2. Combine the dry ingredients in a large mixing bowl. Toss well.

3. Pour the wet mixture into the dry bowl and stir well. You could also lightly beat with a hand mixer (fold in chocolate chips and almonds last if you do this.)

4. Grease a large high rimmed baking sheet with coconut oil.

5. Pour the mixture into baking sheet spreading it around so the a thin even layer coats the entire baking sheet. You could also use a smaller dish for thicker brownies (this would require a longer cooking time.)

6. Add the instant coffee, almonds and sugar over top the batter.

7. Bake at 350 degrees for about 22 minutes or until the edges firm up and the center cooks through. The bars will firm up a tad once they cool since they contain coconut oil which helps to firm the bars especially upon being chilled in the fridge.

9. Allow the bars to cool before slicing. Serve warm or chilled.

Chocolate Chip Pretzel Cookies

Back to school means homemade lunchbox treats chocolate chip cookies are a favorite around here, but a handful of broken pretzels brings them up a notch, adding a hit of salt and crunch. These cookies are crunchy, chewy, sweet, chocolatey and salty everything anyone could want in a lunchbox or afternoon snack!

Adding the broke pretzels at the end, pressing them atop each ball of dough rather than mixing them in with the chocolate chips, keeps them crunchy; stirring them into the batter will cause them to soften, and draw moisture from the surrounding batter.

Chocolate Chip Pretzel Cookies

1/2 cup butter, at room temperature
1/2 cup sugar
3/4 cup packed brown sugar
1 large egg
1 tsp. vanilla extract
1 3/4 cups all-purpose flour
1 tsp. baking soda
1/4 tsp. salt
1-2 cups semisweet chocolate chips
1 cup broken pretzel sticks

Preheat oven to 350F.

In a large bowl, beat together the butter and sugars until pale and fluffy. Beat in the egg and vanilla. Add the flour, baking soda and salt; stir until almost combined, then stir in the chocolate chips until well blended.

Drop the dough by the spoonful (or roll into 1 balls) and place on a greased or parchment-lined baking sheet, spacing them a couple inches apart. Place a few pieces of pretzel on each ball of dough, pressing them lightly to help them adhere. Bake for 12-14 minutes, until golden around the edges. Transfer to a wire rack to cool.

Makes about 1 1/2 dozen cookies.
