Normally, I'm not crazy about bagels.
A wonderfully nice person at work has a college age kid who recently got a job at Einstein Brothers, so we've had bagels at the office a couple of mornings the past few weeks. We've even been taking turns bringing home leftovers.
Some days ago, it was my turn to take home the few uneaten bagels. Bah. I thought I'd let them get crusty then crumble them to make raccoon treats. (Mr. Buffie would KILL me if he knew I gave them treats, which I do very rarely anyway, but let's just keep this on the DL regardless.)
Here's where you come in. I had an interesting experience. Was it a chance discovery or have I invented something that I can market to stoners and make a mint?
After a delicious but spicy bowl of chili and some baked fish for dinner, I found myself craving carbs. Prowling around the kitchen, I came across the bagels. Hrm... Gave them a poke expecting hockey pucks. No! They were as soft as the day I brought them home.
Even more, there was a chocolate chip one in the bag. No idea they came in chocolate chip! Amazing.
Needed cream cheese. Didn't have any. But I wasn't discouraged when I found a new jar of Betty Crocker Sinful Death in a Plastic Tub Triple Chocolate Fudge Chip flavor frosting.
Sounds gross? Yeah, kinda.
Split that bagel apart on a plate and slapped a nice moderate layer of frosting on it then put it in the microwave for about 25 seconds.
It yielded a delicious, melty, chocolately, chewy, not-too-sweet awesome donut substitute.
Holy crap, I'm seeing bagels in a whole new light. Why don't people advertise that you can do this? I would have been eating bagels years ago.
Now I'm thinking of dozens of bagel/frosting combinations that I will soon being trying.
Did you guys know you could do this? If so, why didn't you tell me!?!?!???!?!!?
Talk about righteous noms. Duuuude. :eat2:
