I rarely have chocolate cravings, so when I do - I give in. Totally and completely. The chocolaty-er the better. However, in comparison with others, I'm still a chocolate wuss. Take these brownies for instance. Others who go on a chocolate binge may eat an entire pan. Or half a pan. Me? I can't eat more than one. That's right. My chocolaty indulgence is one singular brownie. But when they're as rich and fudgy as these are, one is all it takes. I'm totally loving that dutch chocolate I bought at Sur La Table, its not sweet, but adds a wonderful depth of flavor. I don't think I can go back to my old cocoa ever again.

My hubby is begging me to make these!
ReplyDeletei'm absolutely drooling just looking at that picture.
ReplyDeletealas, the hub gave up sweets for lent, so i'm going to try and be the supportive wife and not tempt him!
I'm the same when it comes to starving a chocolate craving, just a little fixes it... I suppose it's a good thing really.
ReplyDeleteThese look great, not too heavy and not too light, just perfect!
Delicious. If you're gonna do it, do it all the way! (I think anyway).
ReplyDeleteI'm not a sweets fiend, but these are making me salivate a little. Looks good!
ReplyDeleteI wish I could only eat just one--wanna send the rest of 'em my way??
ReplyDeletemmmmm....
ReplyDeletei just bought some vanilla beans and truffle oil from there yesterday and can't wait to use them. and i was shocked to see that for the price of less than one bean in the grocery store, you get TWO at sur la table!!
those look soooo good. i'll have to try this recipe out soon.
ReplyDeleteI think we need these for the next GTG.
ReplyDeleteYou have a special gift if you can only eat one of those things!
