Happy Hour and Dessert in Capitol Hill

Happy Hour Street Tacos with Carne Asada and a Miami Vice from Poquitos. Poquitos is located in Capitol Hill and they're serving up authentic Mexican cuisine and cocktails. Their happy hour deal is a good one- during Ocho hour, everything on the happy hour menu is just $8! I went with a Miami Vice, a classic Pina Colada with Strawberry. This blended cocktail was so fruity and delicious. To eat I had two Carne Asada Street Tacos and a Birria Poquitos Burrito. The Burrito was small and served with a side of Consommé sauce. Both food items were tasty and satisfying. My husband also had some Street Tacos and a Margarita from the happy hour menu. My sons had a Cheese Quesadilla and beans and rice. Everyone enjoyed their dinner. I first visited Poquitos in 2012, also for happy hour, and I remembered liking it then, too. It was time for a meal there again.

Time for Fudge Stuffed Brownies! This was the second recipe I baked from Handle The Heat. The first recipe I tried of hers were the Nutella Brownies in my last post. Handle The Heat's recipes seem to be on the sweet side. So if you have a huge sweet tooth like I do, you're in luck. If not, I would just try a couple of bites!

The Fudge Stuffed Brownies have three layers of goodness. The middle is a chocolate layer which is surrounded by the blondie layers. These were a little tricky to make, as you need to spread the layers thin before baking. The top blondie layer was kind of hard to spread without it mixing with the fudge. But I did it and the bars tasted so good! The blondie part tastes like cookie dough, so these bars reminded me of chocolate chip cookies, but in layered bar form.

If you want to make these, you can find the recipe I used from Handle The Heat here.
