I'm sharing a cozy tea with my late Great Aunt Kitty's trio set that she painted for me, of which I have six different designs. She painted these as a shower gift for me. Since violets are for the month of February, I'm using these pretty pieces on such a rainy, dreary day that we are having.
Isn't this a pretty teacup? My Aunt Kitty had no children of her own, and my grandmother, who was Aunt Kitty's sister, and my mom's mother, died when I was probably three or four years old, and my Aunt took the place of my grandma.
Here's my baking partner, who just so happened to lick the marshmallow creme spoon, when she finished spreading it on top of the brownies. That girl is so fun and she keeps me laughing!!
Yield: Depends on how large or small you like your brownies!
Gooey Peanut Butter S'More Brownies
These are so heavenly, and a great recipe for kids to make. My son thinks they taste like a buckeye with cream.

ReplyDeleteThose brownies look so good, time with grandchildren is Time well spent.
They do sound like a nice sticky sweet treat Kitty:@)
ReplyDeleteI wish I had a little Cissy around to bake with...It looks like she’s really enjoying being with Grandma... The brownies sound delicious too... I think I’ll try them when my little kids arrive next week-end. Yummy ...
ReplyDeleteI do love your painted teaset... I remember years ago when porcelain painting was the rage... and I always wished that I could do it ... however by the time I grew up it was a thing of the past and there were no classes around... Just the memory did inspired me to love teacups. How very special it is to have your Auntie’s hand painted teaset... It really a precious treasure. thank you for sharing it ... xoxoxox
Those sound delicious!! That little Cissy is just a doll and I love that teacup! I hope you have a wonderful week, Kitty! xo Diana
ReplyDeleteOH my, a brownie that has everything! Your tea set is so pretty, I wish I could ask her what her technique was for painting the fine china...I know you've mentioned it before, what treasures to have from your family! Cissy is such a doll, my grands aren't too interested in cooking but they do love to draw and paint!

Your Aunt Kitty sounds like a sweet lady and she left you with a name and those beautiful springy tea cups.
ReplyDeleteI just realized how much your darling granddaughter looks like you by looking back in your blog and finding a photo of you when dating her grandfather. Yes, so much alike!
Connie, your Aunt Kitty sounds like a treasure and her handiwork is beautiful. I can't imagine painting on china. The colors are so delicate! Your granddaughter looks so happy. Yum!
ReplyDeleteYour teacup Trio is so pretty and dainty!Love the wonderful brownie too,it looks delicious.Hugs to you and Cissy!
ReplyDeleteYour Great aunt Kitty was quite the artist and her china is so special! I see your little dolly is joining you again for baking time. What a joy to have a granddaughter so close that you can spend time together! Yum! Your s'mores brownies look so good and easy to make as well. Thanks for another wonderful recipe and have a lovely day, Kitty. Hugs...Sandi
ReplyDeleteThe handpainted trio set by your Aunt Kitty is exquisite! I don't think I've ever had marshmallow cream. The chocolate/marshmallow/peanut butter looks like a divine combo.
ReplyDeleteYum, Cissy, I would love one of those delicious treats. And, you are a cutie in the kitchen learning from your sweet Grand. Kitty, what a sweet Aunt Kitty you had and her work is stunning.......
ReplyDeleteGood Lord Woman!! Are you trying to kill me??? These look SO SO SO good and I like that they are quick to put together. Ummmm . . . adding this to my "how to grow those hips" recipe stash. Now, onto those cups and saucers. Wow - I can't imagine the time and talent it took to paint those. They certainly are a treasure! Thanks for sharing the recipe AND the lovely cups!
ReplyDeleteTalk about a cherished treasure, Kitty! Those 3 pieces of your tea trio are gorgeous! I just love violets, and those colors are still so rich. I can tell you've taken great care with them. The brownies sure do look good too! Tell Cissie she was busted! Have a great week.
ReplyDeleteWell, your great Aunt Kitty was certainly a wonderfully talented lady...her painting is exquisite! What very precious treasures those beauties must be to you! The brownies look beyond rich and delicious!
ReplyDeleteYour teacup trio is so pretty! =)
ReplyDeleteThe brownies look and sound amazing! Love the pictures!
We had a cold cloudy day two days ago, and now its getting a little warmer.
Your helper looks like she is having a blast!
ReplyDeleteWow, such an amazing talent. Your Aunt Kitty painted the cups perfectly. Such a treasure Kitty. Those brownies look pretty yummy. Your little baking partner is so cute. Laughter is the best. Xo

Oh, my! These look wonderful! That dear grand-girl is just adorable, and I know you must enjoy her so much! God bless you, sweet friend. Continuing to pray for you every day!
ReplyDeleteThat baking partner of yours Kitty is just a doll baby. Wish our grandgirls could bake together. Wouldn't that be awesome! Those brownies look so good. Oh my! Give me a cup of coffee and well, the rest would be history. Enjoy your day dear lady. Hugs and blessings, Cindy
ReplyDeleteOh, what special tea cups. Does anyone do "china painting" anymore? My mother gave me pieces that friends had done. Not an easy thing I suspect. Love seeing that you have a fire going. Here too!
ReplyDeleteKitty, those teacups are a real treasure! What an amazingly talented person your great Aunt was. The brownies look so yummy and your helper is ever so cute with her marshmallow lips!
ReplyDeletehugs,
Jann
Oh Kitty, these would be a big hit with my sons! Can't wait to make them. xo
ReplyDeleteKitty, Cissy is so adorable! I was thinking, though, don't these need a sprinkling of graham cracker crumbs (only because of the s'mores name)? Those teacups are really beautiful. I know lots of women got into china painting during a certain era, but you rarely see such beautiful work as your aunt's.
ReplyDeleteWhat a treasure of a trio, Kitty. The violets are so beautiful and amazingly painted by your Great Aunt Kitty. How precious that these pretties were painted especially for you. The brownies look deliciously gooey. I know I have said it ad nauseum......your Cissy is the sweetest young lady.
ReplyDeleteYour little chef is just the cutest! I love that she wants to learn to cook and tasting as we go is the reward of cooking isn't it!
ReplyDeleteMakes me want a brownie for breakfast!
Thanks for sharing your sweet tea set and that lovely baking assistant of yours.
ReplyDeleteHi Kitty,
ReplyDeleteWhat a beautiful teacup, it sure reminds me of spring. Your Gooey Peanut Butter Smore Brownies look like a hit with your Grand, and I think they will be a hit here at the cottage! Thanks so much for sharing your awesome post with us at Full Plate Thursday. Have a great week and come back soon!
