DELIGHTFUL Chocolate
It's late, and I really shouldn't be posting, but I HAD to share this one recipe with y'all. It's another Amber creation...
Amber's Brownie Sandwiches
(Isn't the name enough to make your mouth water?)
4 (1 oz.) squares of semi-sweet baking chocolate
2 TBS Butter
1 tsp vanilla
1/3 cup packed brown sugar
1 egg
1/8 tsp baking powder
1/3 cup flour (I think....it was somewhere between 1/4 and 1/2...Sorry! It all comes, as Pooh Bear would say, of baking too much without writing down the ingredients as you go...)
Coarsely chop the chocolate. Place in micro-wave safe bowl with butter and bake on high for 1 minute. Remove, and stir until chocolate is smooth and completely melted. Add vanilla, sugar, and egg. Stir until smooth. Add powder and flour, and stir. Add a touch more flour if you think it's too soupy....but it's supposed to be soupy. Like cake batter.
Pour into grease cookie pan, with sides....um, I used an odd size. Not a 9x13...smaller...but not a 9x9. ...Can you tell this recipe wasn't planned? Batter should be spread thinly, but not so thin you can see the pan through the batter. Almost, but not quite.
Anyway, bake at 350 for about 10 minutes, or until just barely pulling away from sides of pan. Remove and let cool. Will harden as it cools, until it's stiff, like a cookie or wafer. (But if you over-cooked it, it will be HARD, like rock!) Cut into 1.5" squares.
Making Filling:
2 oz. cream cheese
1 TBS milk chocolate chips
1 TBS powdered sugar
Melt cream cheese and chocolate chips in microwave-safe bowl - about 15 seconds. Do not over cook. Stir until smooth and completely melted. Add sugar. Stir.
Use frosting and wafers to make mini sandwiches. Refrigerate until filling becomes firm again.
Eat.
Try not to eat too many.
Sorry for the odd directions. But I didn't want you to miss out on a good treat.
And no picture. They didn't last long enough.
I've discovered something....
...I used to think that hype about "caffeine addiction" was nuts.
It's not.
I'm officially addicted to chocolate.
I'm serious.
What should I do? Try to break it? Or feed it?
How 'bout control it? Just bits at a time?
Yeah. That sounds good. :)
