OK, I posted an Ice Cream Pie (Yum!). I thought I had a chocolate cookie recipe that had coffee in it too, but it's not in the computer, so I either lost it or it's just in my recipe box...further exploration required.

What exactly makes a recipe 'uncomplicated'? Are you specifically looking for recipes with like 5 or fewer steps... or 5 or fewer ingredients? Or something with a short or no cook time?!
I'm just assuming if I think its easy, then its uncomplicated! You know?
I'm kinda over analyzing aren't I?

It was, but the company didn't want to do coffee recipes - they decided on the tie in of "uncomplicated" recipes.
To me uncomplicated means a few ingredients and a recipe that anyone can make and master. Think simple - There's an eggplant parmigiana I make that is super simple and it's done in about 10 minutes. Don't worry about over-thinking it... just go with your gut. If you want the recipe to stand out.. add why you thik it's uncomplicated in the back story so when we're reading the recipe it helps us to understand.
Hope that helps! |

Oops! Glad Babette posted in The Breakfast Club about this. It made me check back in, which is a good thing since I had uploaded a coffee recipe before it switched to "uncomplicated." Gotta think on that one. I'll be back...
