If you are looking for gooey , seriously chocolaty (though i dont think i know what that really means) brownies your in the right place , at the right page , on the right blog , at the right time....
I also so wish i could send u all some of these , but since we cant really do that , lets do the next best thing , talk all about the brownies so u can bake them right in ur kitchens and have the fantastically warm , heart tugging (cant decide if taste bud tugging sounded better ) soonnnn all to urself.
First of all i really have to thank Shahieda for choosing these brownies for this weeks choice for Baking with Dorie .
First of all , im late here , the last one outa the gate , these were supposed to be up on Monday and here i am today and i baked them quite a bit back specially with love for dearest A and V and am so glad they loved it , and they sure are the most wonderful brownie lovers for sure.
This brownie has 5 types of chocolate no less , the only one i omitted is the white one coz A doesnt fancy the sweet type too muc and plus was on deadline and as it is , these are are the most goooey brownies to cut into.
Another first for me here is that ....ahemmm...well i didn use hearts to cut these out , well these arent very easy to cut and maybe i should have allowed them to cool a bit.
But that said , there are no complains about these brownies , they are so gooodddddd...
5 types of chocolate , no less , what i stuck to was Callebaut in 70% cacoa and 53 % cacoa, and for chips i did a play of milk in Hersheys as well as Butterscotch (a very good addition if i may say so ) chips..+ some real good coco powder goes in too ...
These arent only good with some black coffee but also on their own , any time u need a choco shot , grab one of these and u'll be at peace , even for ur 3 am fix.
And as goes with brownies, these go pretty fast with jus a bowl and whisk to wash up later (ok and a measuring cup and spoon set and another bowl too , to be honest)
Ahh , there are nuts in there too , lots of them and not jus any nuts but Cashewnuts , 2 ways , salted and unsalted , both slightly roasted.....they sure make a wonderful brownie and i really didn expect them to go so well with the butterscotch chips but they did.....
And this pic is specially for u to see the cashewnuts :-)
Picked along the way tips.
~~~Salted cashewnuts are so good , add half plain if u dont like things to salty.
~~~a bit of almond extract here also takes things to a yummy level.
~~~as with most brownies , this is a good place to begin adding anything u might love , zest , lavender or vanilla beans (which i always do).
~~~dont skip the coffee , coffee makes everything chocolate better.
~~~as always i use salted butter n love it this way...
~~~As they bake , go right ahead , take that french press out and get u some coffee , this are irresistible outa the oven and u wont be able to wait for them to cool (u simply cant ), i mean how can u when ur senses are going all gaga with the chocolaty fumes (an excellent thing to happen in ur kitchens,may i add) that have filled the air already.....
And here is someone i so want u to meet the sweet darling in my all pink and roses life , meet Jenna Lyse , dont u love her?
She's adorable , sweet and most of all soooo lovable .....14th June will see her completing her 4months:-)
And yeah thats my fav cup , which has me sipping lods of water and black (lots of it) coffee in the morns as i walk to the gym or to the beach ......
Lodsa love and will catcha soon guys...
Lods love and huggies (big beary warm ones) from Mia ...
Sunshine smilesssss from JennaLyse and me ......
