The Brownies will change its name after its parent organization, the Girl Guides of Canada (GGC), decided the name is not “inclusive” and “causes harm.” The organization will be renamed by September 2023. “Brownies” were helpful, magical, elf-like figures from English and Scottish folklore, but an email sent to volunteers Nov. 15 said the organization has…

Think of blondies as cousins to brownies. They are flavored with brown sugar and studded with creamy white chocolate chips. Like brownies, blondies are typically made in a baking pan and cut into squares when cool. Baking them in a muffin tin dramatically cuts down the baking and cooling time — ­so you get blondies…

When I first made these zucchini brownies in 2012, I declared that I would never need another brownie recipe.

Perhaps that’s why I pull out the index card containing her “Saucepan Brownies” recipe even though I’ve had it memorized for years now. I like looking at her writing. Growing up, my family would spend Sunday mornings at church and Sunday afternoons…

My husband and I live in opposite-ville when it comes to dessert. Give me a rich, gooey chocolate brownie with a shiny, crackly top any day.
