The original recipe is one of Oprah Winfrey's favorites. I think my recipe is easier and just as tasty — super moist with the sweet- ness of apples and raisins. Made as big burgers or as sliders, they are amazing. A couple of salads and some caramel brownies, and you've got holiday eats that are just so good you won't mind laboring on Labor Day. f With any $29.95 or More ,„ I Present this printed coupon when 40 vs order.

Monday, September 8 through Friday, September 12 Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Spray a 9- x 12-inch baking dish well with non- stick cooking spray. Set aside. Place butter and 1 cup of the chocolate chips in a medium-sized microwave safe bowl, and cook for 2 minutes. Stir to combine. If the chocolate is not melted, cook another 30 seconds and stir again. Continue this process until the chocolate is melted. Do not cook at intervals of more than 30 seconds or the chocolate could burn (2 minutes is usually enough). Stir in the sugar until smooth. Stir in the eggs, one at a time, until incorporated. Stir in the salt, vanilla, baking soda and flour until incorporated. Add the remain- ing 1 cup of chocolate chips, and transfer the mixture into the prepared pan. Bake for 25 to 30 minutes. Don't over- bake; the brownies will become dry. Let cool completely before cutting into squares. Drizzle the squares with cara- mel sauce, and sprinkle with sea salt. Chill until ready to eat (serve cold or room temperature; if these are left in the sun, the caramel will become too melted and the brownies can be "messy") Makes about 2 dozen brownies. $21.95 (248) 538-8954 Includes Petite Filet, antipasto plate, side of pasta, salad, soup, potato and vegetable.
