Everyone with a DSLR camera, get ready to be jealous…

On Tuesday night, I was invited into the News 8 studio to watch as they filmed. I loved it! I got to meet the incredibly gracious news crew and get a behind-the-scenes view of what goes on during a live broadcast.
Then, when my story came on the tv, it was surreal. Shelly Slater, the news anchor, had asked me to bring another cookie pie to the set, and–unbeknownst to me–they did a live taste-test in the middle of the show. Shelly set out two desserts and didn’t tell the other newscasters which one was the healthier one. She asked them to pick their favorite… and they both picked the deep-dish cookie pie!
If you’re new to my blog, the recipe can be found here:

And this is what they did on the commercial break:

No one ever did finish that other cake… ![]()

Ahh, SO exciting/crazy to actually HEAR you after reading your blog for the past few years!! Congrats!!!
I had wondered why the comments were previously closed! But now that they are open, can I just say congratulations! And I find it hilarious that they didn’t even finish that other pie. I wouldn’t have either 🙂
Katie,
So happy for you….you are even cuter on TV. 🙂
Can’t wait to try this recipe….I am now gluten free and struggle to find yummy things.
I still make your choc pancakes (I think you call them brownie pancakes) for my son…he’s still a huge fan. I am too!

I’m so happy for you! Great job!
Congratulations on the news segment! What an honor! Keep the recipes coming!
AHHHH!! THAT IS SO FRICKEN AWESOME! Congrraatss! You’re famous! haha!! I’m so excited for you! This calls for new SUPER CHOCOLATEY recipe 😉
Congratulations, Katie! I’m a new fan and I made your Deep Dish Cookie Pie last week — it’s SO good! Last night I made your 1 Minute Mocha Cake & I was equally impressed. Keep up the good work for us chocoholic, yet health-minded folks 🙂
SO FABULOUS! I love it. 🙂
Awesome, That was great. I wish I could taste test your creations. I am gluten intolerant and I found your blog doing a search for a healthy gluten free dessert that was also sugar and sugar substitute free. I am so glad I found this blog. I tried the sugar free cookie dough dip and it was a failure, but I am still hopeful with the other recipes. I’m going to try to make some chocolates for Valentine’s day with your chocolate bar recipe.
I served the Deep Dish Cookie Pie this evening to my brother, who is a chef in the Byward Market district of Ottawa, Ontario and his vegetarian fiance. They LOVED it! As did my extremely picky husband. Great, healthy recipes! Congrats on the recognition you are getting for all your hard work.
