The next time you have a wild hair or crazy idea, go with it! This especially applies when you’re in the kitchen. Some of the kookiest concoctions have created delightful desserts, including – but not limited to – adding pistachios to blondie bars. Pistachios are closely related to cashew nuts, so you get that familiar creaminess with lots of healthy fats and protein to satisfy growling tummies. And the white chocolate chips are added to calm an unruly sweet tooth. Clearly, some things need taming – but your imagination isn’t one of them.
