Christmas is over, Santa has given his presents, so now I can confess how bad I've been. I’m a chocoholic. The richer, more chocolaty and sinful the dessert in question, the more I love it. While I appreciate light moist chocolate cakes, I especially love the fudgy, and the mousse-filled ones; so chocolaty rich, you think you will keel over and go to chocolate heaven if you dare take a second slice.
Naturally, I prefer fudgy brownies to the cake-like ones. So I wasn’t expecting to fall in love with this brownie when I bit into it. Most brownies are made with walnuts or pecans. This one has almond and chocolate chips. Maybe it’s the perfect melding of almond with chocolate. The flavour is so gorgeous, you don’t need the richness of fudge to take you to a dessert high. And because it's not rich, you think you could keep popping more slices in your mouth. I would have if I hadn't had so much good food before that. I think I'm a convert now. It may save me from more sinful desserts.
