POTATO CHIP BACON BROWNIES

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Line a 9-by-13-inch baking pan with parchment, leaving a 3-inch overhang on all sides. Spray the parchment with cooking spray.
• Put the bacon in a cold, medium skillet, then turn the heat to medium high and cook, stirring often, until very crispy, about 10 minutes. Drain on paper towels and crumble. Reserve the fat in the skillet.
• Melt the butter in the skillet with the bacon fat over medium heat. Add the sugar and stir until starting to dissolve, about 1 minute.
• Beat together the cocoa powder, vanilla, baking powder, salt and eggs in a large bowl until smooth, then beat in the butter mixture. Add the flour and stir until just incorporated. Stir in the chocolate chips, half of the bacon and 1 cup of the potato chips. Scoop into the prepared baking pan and smooth with an offset spatula. Sprinkle with the remaining bacon and chips, pressing them lightly onto the surface of the batter.
• Bake until a toothpick inserted in the center of the brownies comes out with a few crumbs adhering, 25 to 30 minutes. Cool in the pan, then transfer to a cutting board and cut into 16 squares.

POTATO CHIP-CANDY BROWNIE PIZZA

Steps:

• Heat oven to 350°F (325°F for dark or nonstick pan). Generously grease or spray 12-inch pizza pan. In medium bowl, stir brownie mix, water, oil and eggs until well blended; spread in pan. Top with 1/4 cup of the candy-coated chocolate candies. Sprinkle with potato chips and remaining candy-coated chocolate candies.
• Bake 24 to 26 minutes or until toothpick inserted 2 inches from center comes out almost clean. Cool 5 minutes; sprinkle evenly with chewy caramels in milk chocolate. Cool completely, about 1 hour. Drizzle with caramel.

BROWNIE PIZZA

Steps:

• For the brownie base: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• Lightly coat a round 12-inch pizza pan with cooking spray. Top with parchment paper and spray again with cooking spray.
• Add the chocolate hazelnut spread and eggs to a bowl and mix until smooth. Fold in the flour until it is all mixed in. Pour the mixture into the center of the pizza pan and, using a spatula, spread to the edges of the pan in an even layer. (The dough will be quite thick.) Bake until the brownie is cooked through and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean, 20 to 25 minutes.
• Meanwhile, make the hazelnut ganache: Heat the cream in a pan over a medium heat. Place the chocolate hazelnut spread and chocolate chips in a bowl. Pour the hot cream over and whisk until melted and smooth.
• For the toppings: Put the almond bark in a microwave-proof bowl and microwave in short bursts of 30 seconds, stirring in between, until it is melted.
• Remove the pizza base from the oven and allow to cool completely in the pan. Carefully slide a spatula under the brownie to loosen it from the parchment and slide onto a cake stand or serving platter.
• Pour the ganache over and spread, leaving a 1/2-inch border. Decorate with the candy, then drizzle over the melted almond bark, spooning it back and forth in lines. Scatter over the sprinkles.

SPICED UP POTATO CHIPS

Steps:

• Scrub the potatoes under water until totally clean. Use a mandolin or Japanese slicer to slice the potatoes as thinly as possible. As you slice them, submerge them in cold water and set aside. Mix together the garlic salt, paprika, black pepper, cayenne and salt in a small bowl and set aside.
• In 2 heavy Dutch ovens, heat some vegetable oil to 375 degrees F (use a thermometer to keep the temp right!). Lay the potatoes on a baking sheet lined with paper towels, and blot them with more paper towels to dry completely.
• Lower batches of potatoes into the oil using a spatula. They will fry very quickly, about 1 1/2 minutes; remove with a spatula when they're nice and golden and crisp. Immediately sprinkle on the spice mix. Repeat with the rest of the potatoes!

POTATO CANDY

Steps:

• Mix together potatoes, butter or margarine, and milk. Add enough confectioners' sugar to make a stiff dough.
