    Or, when sister-in-law is visiting, and asking what to bring, say "wine." :D

    There might be other lessons there as well. headscratch.gif

    I know a picture is worth a thousand words, but those words aren't filling my tummy with chocolate. Need some physical samples, I'm afraid. :D

    Ooooo... you iced yours! We just enjoyed the yummy, chewy chocolaty-ness naked and unadorned (read: I didn't have icing ingredients or nuts in the house :giggle). GaWOW! We've actually only allowed ourselve sto taste-test the rubble since we have family coming over this afternoon and these are, strictly speaking, for dessert, but mmmmmmmmMMMmmmmMMMMMm - serious yum. This is now "our" recipe too, I think! Great job, Mischswiss bowdown.gifthumb.gifbow thumb.gifbow thumb.gifbow thumb.gifclap

    PS I recently stumbled across a recipe that adds a shot of espresso as well - I wonder how these would take to that? headscratch.gif

    I'm really pleased that the recipe worked for the two of you! Have fun with it. There are so many variations you can do to make it chewy, light, dense, moist, dry. What ever you like.

    It will definitely take to a shot of espresso (done it), orange or lemon zest (done it), Kahlua (done it), Bailies (done it), fresh mint (done it), minced ginger (done it), whiskey (done it) and a few more. Always fold (trowel) this in at the end. I should try it with chipotle. Chili and chocolate are lovely together. It just takes special children to appreciate it.

    I like making split batches where one pan is lovely, basic chocolate, the other with the added flavor. Then challenge the taste testers to figure it out. Sampling is such good fun :D

    Just imagine the confusion though when someone googles for a brownie recipe and end up at a photography site. eek7.gif

    ps. Call me Jenn

    pps. Kerry, I think you should absolutely INSIST on sampling both Divamum's and Kat's attempts. I need to know that my IP is being well served!

    Thanks Brian.. Loved your pun on the light modification.. ya know.. I actually did try a shot with the egg shells afterwords for the contest.. I crushed them up and tried to cast hard shadows with them, but I need a better lens to pull it off.. all I have right now is the 55mm... and I need a macro to pull that off and get close enough for the impact to be successful...

    Well there is always USPS Kerry.... and I made several pans... and there is plenty... send me the location... and you get your brownies........ all bribes aside though... I say it is a good way to say thank you for all that you do... and you do it all probono to boot!!! . amazing....


    This was neat... a food theme would be an interesting mini challenge...
    However, I discovered that food is harder to photograph than I thought, especially on a white platter.. Now I see why food photography is an art all its own...

    thanks for the comments guys and thanks "Jenn" for the recipe and the Name...

    I think I will try that coffee one Diva,,, that sounds great..

    so that would qualify it as breakfast right? you have your flour (grains) and your eggs (protein) and your nuts and now your coffee (caffeine)..... sounds Awesome. "The Breakfast Brownie" ...wings.gif
