Pillsbury Giveaway!

With leaner economic times comes great creativity – especially in the kitchen. In our family we've cut down on eating out and cook more at home. It's a fun enterprise especially with all of us pitching in, including my toddler! Of course, he has way more fun messing things up. But his unadulterated delight at playing with the flour, or throwing blueberries in the air and crying out "rain" more than makes up for any extra cleaning that results. And then we have fun consuming the home-prepared food and yummy desserts -- like brownies!

As the holiday entertaining season approaches, instead of hitting the bakery, consider baking at home with the family. Brownies are an incredibly delicious, easy-to-prepare, and easily transportable dessert. Just this fall, brownies were voted America’s favorite dessert in the Pillsbury® Campaign for a Sweeter America, so they’re sure to be a crowd-pleaser at any holiday party.

Another cool thing this holiday season is that Pillsbury wants to hear how consumers make things sweeter with their favorite desserts at www.pillsburybaking.com/campaign. The sweetest entry will receive a kitchen makeover worth $5,000, and Pillsbury will also make a donation to Feeding AmericaTM to help end hunger in this country.

Below are a few recipes that put a festive spin on the classic chocolate square.
