Make Everyday Awesome + The BEST [Gluten Free] Brownie Recipe EVER!


This is a sponsored conversation written by me on behalf of International Delight. The opinions and text are all mine.




Make everyday awesome AND score a delicious, decadent, moist gluten free brownie recipe while you're at it!

Lately I've been trying to focus on one simple goal, each and every day; that goal is to make everyday awesome. Whether I'm taking the time to shop for the nursery, cleaning up the garage, or spending the day with my family, I've been trying to find the positive in every situation and really embracing what life has to offer each day.

We all have the tools to make each day awesome, whether that means changing our mindset or just reminding ourselves to "be in the moment" and really enjoy what's happening--we're all capable of having awesome days everyday.

I can't be the only one that thinks an awesome day starts out with something delicious, though. Some days I want donuts, some days I want fruit, and today... Today, I wanted a gluten free brownie with sprinkles and a delicious cup of coffee and I made that happen so easily, I can't help but share the recipe and my secret ingredient with you!

These super moist and delicious brownies are the answer to your sweet tooth cravings and quiet possibly, the best brownies you've ever had. With a decadent caramel flavor from the International Delight Simply Pure Caramel Coffee Creamer and super rich, dark chocolate gooey melted chocolate chips, you'll be craving a brownie each and every morning... and how could you not have an awesome day after having a brownie for breakfast? I mean, really!

Plus, with International Delight Simply Pure, made with only five simple ingredients, you can enjoy a cup of coffee in a whole different way! I like to add vanilla on really awesome days, sometimes I mix things up and add hazelnut, and I fairly regularly add caramel, because it's absolutely delicious!

But let's talk about the super delicious, decadent gluten-free brownies I promised you. I know you're probably wondering, what do you need to make these brownies?

Make everyday awesome AND score a delicious, decadent, moist gluten free brownie recipe while you're at it!

Brownie Ingredients:

6 tablespoons butter
2/3 cup sugar
1/3 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
1 Egg, slightly beaten
1 teaspoon vanilla
1/4 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon baking soda
3/4 cup all-purpose, gluten-free flour
1/2 cup International Delight Simply Pure Coffee Creamer, I used the caramel flavor but any of the delicious options will be a great addition to your recipe!
3/4 cup dark chocolate chips

For the Frosting, you'll also want to have these items on hand:

1 1/2 cups powdered sugar
1 tablespoon butter, softened
3 tablespoons International Delight Simply Pure Caramel Coffee Creamer
Colorful Sprinkles

You'll begin this recipe by preheating the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit and lightly grease the pan.

Now melt the 6 tablespoons of butter in the microwave, it usually takes around 15 seconds for it to turn into a liquid.

Next you'll want to stir in the sugar and cocoa. Followed by adding in the egg and vanilla.

Mix well.

Now add the baking powder and baking soda and mix thoroughly.

The final three ingredients to add into the brownie batter are the most important.

Take the time to slowly add in flour, stir. Then add in Simply Pure Caramel Coffee Creamer in small amounts and stir, alternating pouring each item into the mix until both are completely added. Once it's all combined, add in the dark chocolate chips and mix well.

Now spread the batter into the prepared pan. Bake for around 25-30 minutes or until a toothpick (or a fork) comes out clean!

Once the brownies are cool to the touch, it's easy to whip together the frosting! You'll combine all of the frosting ingredients in a bowl, other than sprinkles. Mix the frosting well until it's the correct texture and spread over the top of the brownies.

Make everyday awesome AND score a delicious, decadent, moist gluten free brownie recipe while you're at it!

Add a handful of sprinkles to the top of the delicious dessert and ENJOY!

It's that easy to make these colorful, delicious brownies... And I really want to know, how can you not have an awesome day starting it out with something like brownies and a nice cup of coffee with delicious, clean label creamer?

We'll start with the fun and festive Pineapple Kicker Dip! It's so delicious and has the perfect amount of sweetness to it!

The Big Game is right around the corner and this fun, festive pineapple party is the perfect way to celebrate! Get all the details & plan the most spectacular pineapple shindig today!

For the Pineapple Kicker Dip you will need:

1 pineapple
1/4 packet of vanilla pudding mix
1/3 package of whipped topping

The toughest part of this recipe is slicing your pineapple in half, which really only takes a steady hand and a sharp knife.

Once that mission is accomplished, it's all gravy from there. You'll just scoop out the inside of one half of the pineapple and place it in a bowl. Mix the inside of the pineapple with about 2/3 of the whipped topping and add in 1/4 of the pudding mix.

Mix it all together really well and place back into the shelled Pineapple. Serve with fruit, crackers, or whatever floats your pineapple boat!

Now that we've scored a "field goal" with the Pineapple Kicker Dip, I want to share my favorite salad recipe with you... it's definitely going to be a hit with your crew! While it's super delicious, it actually includes apple instead of pineapple... regardless, it's the perfect way to serve up something somewhat healthy without sacrificing any flavor!

The Big Game is right around the corner and this fun, festive pineapple party is the perfect way to celebrate! Get all the details & plan the most spectacular pineapple shindig today!

For the Fabulous Football Fanatic Salad you'll need:

For the most amazing homemade dressing:
1 tbsp red wine vinegar
1 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
1 minced garlic clove
1/4 tsp Dijon mustard
1/8 tsp salt & pepper

For the Salad:
2 cups arugula
1 cup spinach
1/2 a pink lady apple, cored and sliced thin
1/2 oz shaved Parmesan
2 tbsp chopped pecans

The good news is this salad is super simple to make, but it doesn't taste like it! You'll begin by whisking the vinegar, oil, garlic, Dijon, salt, and pepper for about a minute; making sure it's all combined perfectly. Set aside.

Now toss the arugula, spinach, apple, Parmesan, and pecans.

Add in the dressing when ready to serve and you're all set to score a touchdown with all your team mates!

Now that I've shared how I whipped together two delicious recipes, next on my list of party foods is the delicious Key Lime Edwards Pie! While key lime obviously isn't the same as pineapple, it makes the perfect compliment with it's creamy, tart flavor and is the perfect way to end the meal!

The Big Game is right around the corner and this fun, festive pineapple party is the perfect way to celebrate! Get all the details & plan the most spectacular pineapple shindig today!

Plus, Edwards Pies taste homemade so you're able to serve up a pie from the heart while only having to supply minimal effort to de-thaw the package! What more could a football loving gal wish for on the day of the Big Game?

Let your coffee break get a little happier with this happy hour delight, mü coffeehouse is what your coffee cup has been waiting for...

We've all had one of those delicious, creamy, perfectly blended beverages from our favorite coffee shop.

Let your coffee break get a little happier with this happy hour delight, mü coffeehouse is what your coffee cup has been waiting for...

You know the type I'm talking about, the kind that make your mouth water from the smooth and sweet goodness... The type of drink that adds a little pep in your step because of the double shot of espresso mixed in with your favorite sugary treats... The type of drink that leaves you craving another one.

Let your coffee break get a little happier with this happy hour delight, mü coffeehouse is what your coffee cup has been waiting for...

Well, today I'm sharing not just one, but two recipes for those ridiculously good drinks. But here's the twist, these drinks are for adults only with my new favorite addition to my coffee bar area, mü coffeehouse cocktails.

http://cbi.as/1300p

While these drinks are tasty with or without the booze, who says no to a little "cocktail" addition to their coffee around the holidays? Not I!


http://cbi.as/1300p

Are you ready to have one (or two) of these delicious coffee house inspired cocktails? Follow the recipes below and start sipping!

http://cbi.as/1300p



Ingredients:

For the Strawberries & Cream Coffeehouse Cocktail -

2 scoops vanilla ice cream
1/2 cup whole milk
2 shots of espresso, room temperature
3/4 cup mü coffeehouse cocktails Creamy Vanilla Latte
1 cup strawberries
1 1/2 cups ice

http://cbi.as/1300p


For the Cookies & Cream Coffeehouse Cocktail -

2 scoops vanilla ice cream
1/2 cup whole milk
2 shots of espresso, room temperature
3/4 cup mü coffeehouse cocktails Creamy Espresso Macchiato
1 cup chocolate sandwich cookies, whole
1 1/2 cups ice


Both of these recipes are so easy to make, but we'll work on the strawberries & cream cocktail first - you'll start by mixing the strawberries and about 1/4 cup milk in the blender. Next add in the ice.
