The worst title ever, yes, it’s true–but I *had* to do it.
This recipe will make you do a double take. Just when you think you know what it is…
…you realize your eyes are playing tricks on you.
I bet you can’t guess what that orange stuff is {or maybe you can, but I double dog dare you to guess}… Find the answer here {and my most favorite recipe up to this point from F&B} at the GoodVeg.
Also click here to go to my friend Becky’s blog. She is starting up a month long party into the world of chocolate-making and asked me a few questions to answer. She was so kind to do this and she has some great stuff worthy of checking out…

You slay me! Absolute kudos on the ingenuity
I LOVE my desserts to have a crunch as well as a fresh element to them and this is perfect. All we need now is some chocolate…you could make a chocolate “bean dip”
Cara says:
Apr 12, 2012
Aaaaahh! Chocolate bean dip!! That is genius. Where in the world were you when I was making this?? That is it, you are coming over next time I do a Play with your Food recipe! Seriously.

Cara says:
Apr 13, 2012
Who said I was teasing, girl? I am being serious. You live locally right?? And by local I mean L.A. area?

Cara says:
Apr 13, 2012

What a cheesy title!
My eyes got big as I scrolled down from the title to the pictures. Wow. And no, I wouldn’t have guessed what the orange stuff was had I not clicked!
Cara says:
Apr 12, 2012
See what she did there folks? Cheesy title? Get it? Eh? hahaha!
stephanissima says:
Apr 12, 2012
You started it! I couldn’t resist the urge to NOT keep it going
Cara says:
Apr 12, 2012
That is why I like you
stephanissima says:

DON’T. Stop with the silly titles
. No, don’t – I do so love them. Hmm, I appear to have developed a split personality! How unfortunate. Yet another great play on food!
Cara says:
Apr 12, 2012
I’m confused!!! Do I continue or do I stop?? You are making me go crazy now…
Willow says:
Apr 12, 2012
Cara you are so BRILLIANT! This post made me smile so big. I will definitely be making these sometime. It’s like a brain twister just trying to look at them and think sweet, not savory – but they sound delicious!
Cara says:
Apr 12, 2012
They really do mess with your head, it’s true…until you start eating them. Oh goodness! They are so good.
Thanks for such a sweet comment, Willow! xo

Love this!
Cara says:

Thank you, Julie! You will love it even more once you eat it too

Ha amazing! You are too cute and these nachos look amazing and totally convincing. We went to a Mexican restaurant in San Fran last summer that had smores nachos for dessert, with cinnamon and sugar tortillas, mini marshmallows and chocolate, they brought a torch out with them and torched them right at the table. So funny. Too bad they were flour tortillas and I couldn’t partake in the fun. These however are downright brilliant!
Cara says:
Apr 11, 2012
Thanks Beth! You are so sweet
And S’mores nachos? Now that is something I could scarf down in a heart beat! Anything S’mores immediately steals my heart. As well as San Francisco.

Looks REALLY good!!

And tastes even BETTER

You know why I love this post? (Besides the fact that it’s yummy and you made it, obviously.) My Mom’s handle on ICQ like a bazillion years ago was “Nachomama.” It’s nice to think of her and you at the same time.
Cara says:
Apr 11, 2012
The “Nacho cheese” {not your cheese} joke was always a classic in my book as a kid. I *had* to do it

Brilliant, Miss Cara.Just when I think you couldn’t get any more brilliant, you do this
So what are we having as an appetizer?
Cara says:
Apr 11, 2012
Hmmmm, Deep fried cupcakes? ha! xo
Brooke says:
Apr 11, 2012
Oh HAIL Naw!
Cara says:
Apr 11, 2012
That would be a bit over the top, eh?
Brooke says:
Apr 11, 2012
Over the top, but much more delicious than deep-fried beer, which is apparently a thing now…
Cara says:
Apr 11, 2012
Wait one second. You mean to tell me that there is a new trend out there that takes beer and fries it??? This just might be my year after all…Call me crazy but that sounds soooo good.
Richa@HobbyandMore says:
Apr 11, 2012
oh yes, i heard that too.. deep fried beer. meh

Gah, you are too adorable. These look amazing! Dessert nachos…. I am just sitting here staring at my screen for too long imagining how delicious they taste. Mmmmm.
No go bake some cookies! Now!
Cara says:
Apr 11, 2012
Can’t you tell I’m stalling? I sitting here with this horrible sinus headache and I just know doing something else {ie: making my award winning cookies for Baker Bettie} besides thinking about it will help. But have I gotten up? Noooooo. I want a nap
xo
Baker Bettie says:

Well geez. There you go making me feel all bad for you and stuff. For God’s sake, go take a nap woman!
