1 cup sugar
¾ cup flour
2/3 cup cocoa powder
½ cup powdered sugar
¾ tsp salt
2 eggs
½ cup vegetable oil
2 Tbsp water or fruit juice
½ tsp almond extract
Optional: ½ cup mix-ins (chocolate chips, fruit, nuts, marshmallows, etc)
Preheat oven to 325° F. Line an 8” cake pan with baking parchment and spray the parchment with cooking spray.
In a medium bowl, stir together all ingredients until mixed. It is a very thick batter. Pour the batter into the baking pan and spread it out with a spatula.
Bake for 30 minutes if your pan is a little larger. For smaller pans (thicker brownies) go up to 40-45 minutes. If a toothpick comes out mostly clean, it is done. It's better to take them out of the oven sooner than later, as they will repose and firm further in the hot pan.

6 ounces (½ can) frozen orange juice concentrate
1 cup milk
1 cup water
¼ cup powdered sugar
1 tsp vanilla extract
Ice cubes, as many as needed for desired consistency
Combine all the ingredients except the ice cubes in a blender and process until smooth and frothy. Add the ice cubes and blend until smooth.
Variation
You can use whatever frozen juice concentrate you want. Omit powdered sugar if the juice has added sugar.

Get some canned pears. Chop them up into smallish pieces. Line a baking sheet with foil, then dust with powdered sugar. Spread the pear pieces in a single layer on the baking sheet. Put in the oven at 200° F for 4-6 hours. They need to be not wet anymore, only slightly sticky, and with a gummy texture like raisins or other dried fruits.

Crust:
1 cup flour
3 Tbsp powdered sugar
¼ cup butter
¼ cup yogurt
Filling:
1 cup (8 oz) cream cheese
2 Tbsp honey
1 large egg
Topping:
2-4 apples, cored and cut into ¼” slices
1/8 tsp cardamom
1/8 tsp allspice
2 Tbsp honey
Preheat oven to 450° F. Grease 9” pie pan.
Crust: Stir together flour and sugar. Cut in butter and yogurt until the dough forms. Press the dough onto the bottom and one inch up the sides of the pan.
Filling: Beat the cream cheese until smooth. Add the honey and mix well. Blend in the egg. Pour the filling into the crust.
Topping: Toss the ingredients together, to coat the apple slices. Place apple slices in a decorative fashion on the top of the tart. You want it to be about double layered with apple slices.
Bake 10 minutes. Reduce heat to 400° F and bake for 25-30 minutes or until golden brown (apples are soft when pierced with a fork), and filling is almost set. Remove from oven and let cool before serving.
