I realize that some of you out there might just be ready to take a break from chocolate (this is never a problem that I have) after the candy-indulgences of Valentine's Day. However, for those of you are ready for another round of cacao-based based deliciousness, then do I have a recipe for you. This is not one I discovered on my own, but I am bookmarking it for future reference. You see, last night we had a birthday dinner for Scott. Some friends came over and we ate roasted chicken, mashed potatoes, roasted brussels sprouts and a really lovely baguette from Metropolitan bakery. Because Scott is something of a champagne fan, I made the Champagne Chiffon Cake that Nicole created for New Year's Eve. In addition to that dessert, Joe brought a pan of brownies that he had made earlier that afternoon, when the baking bug had struck. He found the recipe on Al Dente, the Amazon.com food blog. He used the variation that included pecans and dried cherries and they were so good. Fudgy and thick, with a great consistency. This recipe is a keeper.
