Instructions

Prepare Chocolate Chip Cookies

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). In a large bowl, cream together the butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar until smooth. Beat in the eggs and vanilla until well blended. In another bowl, combine flour, baking soda, and salt, then gradually mix into the creamed mixture. Stir in chocolate chips. Drop by rounded tablespoon onto ungreased baking sheets.

Bake for 10-12 minutes or until golden. Let cool on wire racks.

Assemble Fruit Parfaits

In a cup or small glass, layer Greek yogurt, a layer of mixed berries, and a layer of granola. Repeat the layers until the cup is full. Drizzle honey on top before serving.

Bake Brownie Bites

Melt butter in a saucepan over medium heat. Remove from heat and stir in sugar, eggs, and vanilla. Beat in flour, cocoa powder, and salt.

Spread the batter into greased mini muffin tins. Bake at 350°F (175°C) for about 15-18 minutes. Cool before removing from pans.

Allow all desserts to cool completely before serving for the best taste.

Pro Tips

Feel free to customize the desserts by adding nuts, different fruits or toppings for extra flavor!

Tips for Success

To ensure your chocolate chip cookies turn out perfectly every time, make sure your butter is softened but not melted. This allows for a better texture and helps the cookies maintain their shape while baking. Additionally, for an extra touch of flavor, consider adding a pinch of sea salt on top before baking.

When making the brownie bites, keep a close eye on the baking time. Overbaking can lead to dry brownies, so it's best to check them a couple of minutes before the suggested time. They should be set at the edges but slightly soft in the center when you take them out.

Storage and Serving Suggestions

Store leftover chocolate chip cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to a week. If you want to keep them fresh longer, you can freeze them and simply let them thaw at room temperature before serving. This way, you can enjoy your delicious cookies long after the Super Bowl is over.

For the fruit parfaits, it's best to assemble them right before serving to keep the granola crunchy. However, you can prepare the yogurt and berry layers in advance and store them separately in the fridge. Just layer them up and drizzle with honey when it’s time to serve.

Make It Your Own

Feel free to customize these recipes to suit your taste or dietary needs. For instance, you can swap out chocolate chips for nuts or dried fruits in the cookie recipe for a unique twist. Similarly, you can use any combination of fruits in your parfaits, such as bananas or peaches, to create different flavor profiles.

Experimenting with flavors not only keeps things exciting but also allows you to cater to any dietary restrictions your guests may have. For a healthier version of the brownies, consider using applesauce instead of butter, or explore gluten-free flour options for the cookies. The possibilities are endless!
