• chocolate yogurt cake

  

  I may have finally cracked the code! I may have gotten the right balance and proportion of ingredients for chocolate cake in a loaf pan! Finally! I think not adding too much cocoa is key, as well as not adding too much liquid. Too much cocoa may be drying, and too much liquid may end […]

• double chocolate muffins

  

  There is something deeply enjoyable to me about getting up early in the morning, like around 5AM, to have coffee with my cat. He and I will hang out in the kitchen, listen to NPR and I will look at recipes online, and then I’ll do a quick check of available ingredients in the pantry […]

  This chocolate cake has a few unusual things about it: There is a fair amount of oat bran in it. It also uses two apples that you puree with some molasses and coffee first. Lastly, there are a few healthier substitutions that keep it from being too decadent: whole wheat flour instead of cake flour, […]

• mochi chocolate brownies

• Australia’s most-loved chocolate brownies

  

  Lately, I’ve been really noticing the various plants and trees in my neighborhood that have chocolate colored leaves. I don’t know why, but it really fascinates me!

• amaretto chocolate bundt cake

  

  Greetings! I hope you are doing fine. Such a surreal time we live in, huh? It’s hard to be enthused about cake, or even food in general when there is so much pain and suffering and anguish in the world. But here I am with another cake! If you need to snap out of it, […]
