So I made this recipe a while back when I was going through one of my baking spurts. Sometimes I just feel the need to bake and create sweet treats, and then pawn them off on other people since I ate half the batter in the process. The baked treats aren’t my weakness, the paleo batter on the other hand ignites my naughty side. I usually have fingers covered in batter…and saliva. Gross.
These cake brownie thingies were created for one of my best friends, Jimmy. Not only is this guy a stud when it comes to his jobs, CrossFit, AND school (he just graduated!!), but he is a PHENOMENAL cook. Remember how I recently mentioned that I only surround myself with people who love food as much as I do…well, Jimmy is one of those people. Our relationship seems to be built around food. No I don’t think you really understand…unless you’ve been around the two of us at the gym and wondered why the hell we look like we are having the most deep conversation anyone has ever had, and come to find out we are talking about pork and sweet potatoes, you really don’t get our relationship. Him and I could chat about recipes for hours upon hours during the day. And we do. And then we fill the other 20 hours with sending picture messages of our food to each other. It’s like food sexting. And we’re hella good at it. Jimmy inspires many of my recipes; he’s one creative son-of-a-b. In a good way, of course.

love love love
I just discovered your site – I made these last night – taste is good, but I only baked them for 23 minutes and they were dry – I think 20 minutes next time will be good.
Glad you still liked them Erica!
It would be really, really helpful if you could add nutritional info! Thanks 🙂
I’m sorry Jennifer, but I never look at nutritional info myself. There are a ton of helpful sites out there that you can add the ingreidents into and if will give you the information needed.
about to make and cook these, sounds very yummy! I’ve only just begun the paleo lifestyle dietry changes, so any helpful information and recipies I can find are well needed and appreciated. Your site is great and you’ve made such a great effort in putting this site together and with all the recipies and your personal experience. I will be checking back often.
