Dessert Club - 9 x 13

Mmm, just look at all those rectangles! What could be more American than a 9-by-13?

I thought this was a very clever theme for Dessert Club, because honestly, a whole lot of good things come out of 9x13's. As soon as we chose it, my mind started racing. Coconut Milk Pudding Rolls? Whopper Cake? (oh, my, so good.) Marmalade Nut Brownies? Lemon Ginger Bars? Or something completely new? Oh, my.

In the end I chose one of my favorite recipes from last year, Cardamom-Lime Sweet Rolls. They are just so cute and fabulous, and maybe a little unexpected for a 9x13 night.

Of course, I wasn't the only one coming up with fabulousness.

Smitten Kitchen's "Kicked-Up" Blondies
Dulce de Leche Brownies

Blueberry Crumble Bars

Amazing Berry Cobbler
(dished up with vanilla ice cream - this was my favorite of the night)

Disappearing Marshmallow Brownies

And the winner of the evening...and you can see why...it was a very close vote...

Peanut Butter Cashew Brownies, wow!

(I will be getting you that recipe tout de suite - it might be a little melty at summer pot lucks but you can find a time and place for these soon I'm sure.)So. If you were going to a 9x13 night, what would YOU make? (With links if you have them, please!)
