In my opinion the imperfectly flaky top and the chewy cherry interior didn't need the topping that transforms this simple brownie into a delicious torte. It's a good thing too because I didn't have all the ingredients for the Tuesdays with Dorie recipe chosen by April from Short + Rose.Sure I coulda just ran out and got them, but its been a weird few months... and being frugal is the name of the game. I skipped the cherry directions entirely... folding in some chopped dark chocolate covered cherries that I happened to have in the cupboard already. It turned out pretty good too. In fact I don't think my honey simply fell asleep last night... oh no he fell into a deep chocolate coma after consuming two slices of this baby!
Your slice looks delicious! Your simplifications were right on the mark; this was a delicious chocolate treat even without the topping.
ReplyDeleteBeing in a chocolate coma is the way to go.It makes for a good night indeed.
ReplyDeleteThanks for baking with me this week! I bet the chocolate covered cherries were excellent in this!
ReplyDeleteGreat looking brownies. Im glad you enjoyed them!
ReplyDeleteSounds like an excellent variation. Well done!
ReplyDelete"Deep chocolate coma?" Yep, that's the way I felt too after just a couple of bites. Good idea about your cherries.
ReplyDeleteYour brownie looks delicious! Your honey certainly thought so! =) I skipped the whole cherry part too, I made it for my 12 year old niece with Snicker bars instead!
