When it comes to weekly circulars, pretty much everyone will eventually get sick of them. They take up space on the kitchen table, get spread all over the place and eventually become outdated before you even get a chance to read them. What if you could take all those circulars, harness their buying power with easy to search options and actually never have to look at one again?
Pretty sweet, right? Well, that is what Flipp is all about. This awesome shopping app is built around the idea that local circulars are valuable, but are impossible to keep up with. This awesome app automatically pulls in circular ads from all around you (location based) and puts them right there for you to see. You can quickly and easily see where all the best bargains are where you live. It is the ultimate in convenience.
My favorite part of the app is the search feature. Let’s say I am looking for some school supplies on this shopping week. I simply plug that phrase into my search and it will pull up all the deals on every circular for supplies that week.
Best of all, it includes coupon match ups and a lot are even are available to clip right there. In the United States, many of the coupons can be loaded directly to your savings or members cards. this is so convenient and never again will you leave to go to the store without having your coupons handy!
Another awesome part is that you can create a shopping list right on your phone, computer or tablet. From there, you can simply look at your list and see where all the bargains are. As you pick them up, you can simply tick the box and remove them from the list. What a convenient way to shop and save money!
So, with that in mind I found all the makings for my famous Blackberry CheesecakeBrownie… normally a little on the spendy side to make, but with the help of Flipp, I was able to cut the price of the ingredients in half.
To create this delicious dessert, follow the recipe below!
Blackberry Syrup:
1 cup fresh blackberries
1/4 cup sugar
1/4 cup water
1 tsp. lemon juice
dash of ground cinnamon
Brownies:
3/4 cup butter, melted
1 1/2 cups sugar
2 large eggs
1 tbs. vanilla extract
1/2 tsp/ salt
3/4 cup flour
1/2 cup cocoa powder
Cheesecake:
8 ounce package softened cream cheese
1/4 cup Greek yogurt
1 large egg
1/4 cup sugar
1 tsp. Vanilla extract
1/2 tsp. salt
Directions:
-Preheat oven to 325 degrees.
-First, place all of the syrup ingredients in a small saucepan and set over medium high heat. Smash the blackberries so you get the most juice. Let it boil gently for about ten minutes. Strain through a fine mesh strainer and set aside to cool and thicken.
-For the brownies, melt the butter and pour into a mixing bowl. Add in the sugar and eggs and beat well. Add in the salt and vanilla. Carefully fold in the flour and cocoa powder being careful not to over mix.
-Choose any size pan you would like depending in how thick you want your bars and line with parchment paper. Lightly spray the parchment paper with cooking spray and evenly spread in the brownie batter.
-In a mixing bowl, add all of the cheesecake ingredients. Beat on high speed for 2-3 minutes until light and fluffy.
-Evenly spread over the brownie mix.
– Using a spoon, slowly drizzle the blackberry syrup over the cheesecake batter. You may not need all of the syrup, less is more if you want to create the cool designs. Using a fork or a knife, swirl the syrup into the batter being careful to only swirl the cheesecake, not the brownie mix.
-Bake at 325 degrees for 50 minutes to an hour (until the edges are browned).
-After it has slightly cooled, refrigerate for 2 hours up to overnight (I recommend overnight if you can wait, the cuts will be much cleaner and prettier!). Slice up and enjoy your summer!
This awesome app is quick, easy to use and extremely powerful. If you want to save some really good money every single week without having to organize and look through sixty circulars, FLipp shopping app is for you.
