This salted caramel fudge brownies was created in celebration of Halloween. The fun part in making it was to make the stencil for the witch on the broom and the bats. The burned edges of the parchment paper and the lacy background help to pull the elements together to convey that sense of bewitching yumminess.
Roasted pumpkin goodness on these street style tacos. With all the fixings and the crema sauce on the side, utilizing one's hands to help with enjoying these tacos is almost obligatory.
