In reply to Kafe. Either works! The plain are a bit more bitter.

I’ve never used cacao nibs before. I see them plain and sweet. Which should I use?

My mom made this for me when I visited in October and I finally got the nerve to try myself…just the word ‘ganache’ made me nervous! It was divine and one of the best things I’ve ever eaten in October (perfect ratio of choc to pb) and it delivered under my novice baking hands, too. Who knew ganache was so easy! (Also i did not chop up my semi-sweet morsel before adding the heavy cream and it was fine). It was a huge hit at the 20-something bday dinner last night. I will definitely make this again. It was also my 1st time making brownies from scratch. I am very proud of myself!

This recipe is ridiculously good!! The grandchildren loved them. They are like eating a chocolate bar if you eat them out of the freezer. They freeze well. I love the brownie recipe.

I wondered if you had an idea/plan to use a caramel filling, instead of peanut butter, by any chance. I’d love that. Thank you. Really like your books and have all of them Much appreciated.

These were fun to make and sooo delicious! My boyfriend and I really enjoyed them as our dessert for Valentine’s Day dinner. I brought the leftovers to work and they were a hit with several requests for the recipe.

In reply to Patty Green. You will need to use less batter in a smaller pan, probably a little more than half of the batter.
