fat witch: just a wee bit of fatty
indulging in a fat witch is yet another of my long-time favorite treats, and even though they have been mentioned by oprah don’t be put off. the classic brownie is really good if you like fudgie but not too dense, and i also like the red witch which comes with dried cherries. i have not tried some of their other flavors which don’t sound as appealing ( a snow witch is all white chocolate and there is also a breakfast witch with oatmeal, walnuts and coffee).
i prefer the fat witch babies, at 1.5 ounces, they are a little more manageable and don’t make you feel like you need to go run an extra 10 miles. the tins are very cute for gift giving, and they’re a nice keeper for future cookie batches. fat which bakery, located in chelsea market, 15th street and 9th avenue, manhattan, new york, , and they say they will be opening a harlem location at 1753 park avenue in spring of 2009.

with two small and darling kids and one lovely husband who all occasionally need some amount of tending to as well as a full-time job, this blog is an excuse for me to explore the streets of new york, with a focus on brooklyn -- my home -- and manhattan, for those great little finds that seem to appear randomly on all sorts of blocks around new york but are sometimes hidden from plain view. i gravitate toward small, beautiful, independent places with interesting things, fantastic and friendly service and mostly affordable stuff (or at least an excellent value) and food that is extremely tasty, reasonable and in a great space -- though taste will trump design every time. to help put all these ideas in one place, i also will provide a series of new york mini-guides. in each of these, i will highlight something fun to do and then give some food, shop and doing suggestions nearby. these mini-guides, soon to be accompanied by mini-maps, will help to fill an afternoon -- where to pick up a snack, what shops to check out nearby and is there a really sweet little park along the way for a much needed rest. and i am always looking for ideas -- so if you have any suggestions for where to eat and shop or what to do please let me know. . you can also follow me on twitter at cherrypatter.
and for those of you more interested in the photos, i have absolutely no photography training and while i have been picking up a few tidbits here and there, mostly i think the credit for the photos goes to my lovely camera. it is a canon rebel xti, and the lens i use most of the time is the 50 mm 1:1:8. i also have a 75-300mm 1:4-5.6 for longer views.

If you can’t make it to Chelsea Market, Fat Witch also makes brownie mix (even though I make brownies from scratch). They have it at Whole Foods.
great. thanks for confirming this. i had seen some references but then since we don’t have any local whole foods wasn’t able to check it out! curious how the box is.

You can get the same results as the ‘baby’ brownies by cutting a regular sized brownie into quarters … or less.
