Normal day, let me be aware of the treasure you are…
Let me not pass you by in quest of some rare and perfect Tomorrow.
One day I shall dig my nails into the earth,
or bury my face in my pillow,
or stretch myself taut, or raise my hands to the sky
and want, more than all the world, your return.

Temptation! MWM

Mmmm.
I was looking for a quick, easy and yummy dessert to take to the piano teacher recently.
I searched through my Delicious bookmarks and came across one I had bookmarked ages ago from Beck, for her Grandma's Peanut Butter Squares.
Whoa!
These fit the bill completely.
Very easy.
Very quick.
And very, very delicious.
Too delicious maybe.
That sample I cut just kept getting bigger and bigger. ;)

You take brown sugar, karo, and peanut butter, mix it up. Add some cornflakes and press into a pan. Make a quick frosting of powdered sugar, a little butter, more peanut butter and milk. Easy-peasy.
I gilded the lily a bit by drizzling melted chocolate over.
Yum!

If you're looking for something quick to satisfy a craving, made from ingredients you probably have on hand, check out the recipe.

Looks completely wicked! Unfortunately karo is not readily available here. The only reason I actually only know what it is is because my grandma is American. I did buy it once to make American candies (from Grandma's cookbook) but had to search the city and then pay a fortune at a specialty food import shop.

Oh my this looks so delicious! Perfect for those blustery autumn afternoons when you need a treat!

Just a suggestion for Mum-me - We can't get Karo easily here in England either (although I have been known to bring it back from trips to the US and France). I sometimes use Lyle's Golden Syrup to replace it and it does work, although the flavour is a bit different. I don't know if you can get that where you are??
