Thanks to my good buddy Leslie, from Lethally Delicious, for her pick of Bittersweet Brownies, found on page 90 of Dorie Greenspan's Baking from My Home to Yours cookbook. Click here for the recipe. Leslie is all about the chocolate all the time, so I was not surprised to see her name next to a chocolate week!
Mark always loves TWD brownie weeks...apparently we have had a lot of good brownies from this book and these were no exception, he loved them. They were fudgy and full of chocolate flavor with a little kick from the espresso powder.
I have a problem taking photos of brownies (they just seem like one big chocolate blob of a mess to me), so I tried to pretty these up a bit with some whipped cream and pomegranate seeds. I think they look quite nice this way and Mark loved the taste, so I'm feeling good about the whole thing. And best of all, I can just eat a bunch of pomegranate seeds with a little whipped cream and call it dessert as well! Win, win.
