Chocolate Chip Blondies on a Wood-Burning Stove

Mr. K built me a fire in our wood-burning stove this evening so I could finally be warm. I recently read in one of my weird magazines about using a Coleman oven (made to be used with a Coleman stove) on top of a wood-burning stove. It warned that it doesn't heat up as high as a regular oven using it this way, so things take longer to cook.

I happen to own one. It had been my mom's. She gave it to me years ago, before I even had a Coleman stove of my own. We used it camping a few times when I was a kid.

I did succeed in making brownies, but they probably could have stood to have been cooked a bit longer. I got tired of waiting. Next time I try it, I'll use a recipe that makes thinner ones. I don't think a cake would come out so well because of the lower and variable temperature.

Anyway, it was interesting to me so I thought I'd post about it.
