I seem to have developed a taste for pretzels and chocolate together and am tempted to try most recipes combining the two.
A couple months ago I remember coming across an image of melted rolo chocolates on pretzels and thought.....hmmmmm that looks like a delicious and easy peasy recipe!

Pretzel Tree Bark
Well hellooooo! A quiet Sunday on the Daly-Presseau front! I was a little bored and staring at the huge bag of pretzels Justin bought at the Polish deli yesterday and thought...hmmm what can I do with those.....
Then I came up with Pretzel Tree Bark! I love making chocolate bark concoctions, they are such an easy way to make a plain bar of baking chocolate come to life! So I rifled through my baking cupboard and found some pecans (I always have some sort of nut laying around!) and a bar and a half of plain chocolate (semi-sweet for my Canadian friends!).
What you'll need:
bar and half of plain chocolate (I also threw in a child-size handful of milk chocolate chips)
2/3 cup of chopped pecans
1 cup of broken up pretzel pieces

Put on that Bikini and eat some cookies
Back to baking!
Inspired by my recent travels back to Canada and an upcoming visit by friends I decided to bake today. A little rusty at it all, and forgot to take some pictures of the first recipe until I was almost done, but got the finished product which matters most!
I've also used a new photo editing technique, let me know if you like it!
I was inspired by a baking treat that Justin's dad always makes. Bikini Bars. I have NO idea why they are called as such since the certainly don't improve your bikini figure considering they're made with sweet condensed milk, coconut and chocolate, but they're darn tasty! So I found a recipe online and altered it a wee bitty.

Birthday Brownie Pecan Pie
Can someone tell me if it's a sign of a good cook, or a bad one that I've already burned my hand twice on the oven this week??? Or maybe just an overzealous, not paying particular attention to the oven cook? You be the judge!
It's been a while, I know, but with my birthday coming up tomorrow I decided to do some baking and make myself this yummy recipe that I found on Bakeralla.
So here it goes! Check out the recipe below. I also didn't have frozen pie shells so I just used the sweet pastry cases off the shelf.
