A Layer of Soft Oat Brownies. topped with Date Almond butter Caramel and then with Chocolate chip cookie dough with almond butter. Bake, cool, slice and eat up!
The cookie will be crisp on the outside and fudgy inside. Desserts are better when they are all stacked on top of each other. Aren’t they?

On a happy note, if you do not know about Esther the Wonder Pig. Well now you do.
I happened upon these hard hitting pictures of waste yesterday. Cell phones, cars, glass bottles, plastic. e-waste, chargers, circuit boards. So so many of them. I also remembered this post by Andrea about how much plastic we use unconsciously. Another friend of mine refuses to use most processed and packaged food unless it is packaged in bio-degradable or entirely recyclable options. So out go the cartons, and packaging for a lot of things.
A smaller carton, packet or wrapper sure is convenient, but as it gets smaller and smaller, it produces more and more waste. I have spoken about Midway documentary before, Here is the video about a devastating environmental tragedy on a remote, Midway island in the Pacific. There are vast collections of plastic suspended in the sea, and thousands of baby albatrosses (birds) die as their parents feed them plastic caps, rings and pieces.
There are no clear answers and most times it feels like not enough solutions. Till there is a better solution, let us start with Reduce and reuse. Reduce the amount we use, and use re-usable options.
Steps:
Make the brownie batter and pres sit in the pan.
Blend the dates and spread the date caramel evenly on top.
Make the cookie dough and press down on top.
Bake until golden. Cool, slice and serve.

Richa, you are seriously killing me. My life is school right now (24 hours studying in the last 3 days) but in 5 weeks I will finish this round of courses and this is going to be my reward!
