Debunking Beer Can Chicken: A Waste Of Good Beer, And Dangerous
After an arduous search for a dessert to bring to a V-Day dinner party, I was thrilled to stumble upon the gorgeousness and gorgeosity that is reader Amanda's Heart of Darkness brownies. (The treats were adapted from Jill O'Connors Sticky Chewy Messy Gooey).
Amanda details the recipe on her site, but heed my warning: there's tons of chocolate and butter involved (and M&Ms for that great blood red color). But oh, so worth it. Amazingly, the original recipe called for Snickers bars, marshmallows, and a caramel sauce on top. Either that, or we could just invite Ms.O'Connor to our house and have her inject the calories directly into our upper thighs. The latter is probably easier...
But I digress. Valentine's Day is not a time to be worrying about calories. It's a time to be indulging. Specifically, indulging yourself with Amanda's freakishly good brownies.

Now I'm wondering, Ms. Slattery, if that is your real name, whether you might have inside information on desserts that can STEAL souls? See, I have identified a few souls that I intend on stealing, but haven't figured out quite how to do that. Perhaps you could suggest a sweet treat that is delicious and secretly evil?

These do sound absolutely wonderful. You gotta go to confession afterward, in fact.
Thanks Ms. Slattery (if that is your real name...)

I made mine tonight, too, and although they were good, 20 minutes was too soon - they were still gooey - and even 25 didn't do it. 30 minutes would have been perfect.
