Oh Sweet Chocolate

So I haven't been keeping up on my blogging, but I have been keeping up on my baking. I have two different desserts to share with you. The first is Caramel Fudge Cheesecake, sounds delicious right? It was. A little rich, but delicious, and kind of just melts in your mouth. This cheesecake had a fudge brownie crust, covered by a layer of melted caramel, followed by a layer of chopped pecans, and topped off with the chocolate "cheese" portion of the cheesecake and a little raspberry for good measure. I tried this the day of, when it was only slightly cooled, which was not too good. This is a much better dessert after it has sat in the fridge overnight.

The next dessert I made was S'more Brownies. I planned to bring this to a BBQ, but decided against it because I didn't like how how the crust tasted. Although I really enjoyed the brownie and marshmallow portion, so I thought I would share the recipe anyways. This wasn't the best tasting dessert, but it was still fun to make. I think those of you who have kids would have a fun time making it with them, and you can always change up the recipe to make the crust more flavorful. I think it was the best when it first came out of the oven, and the brownies were smooth and the gooey marshmallows remind you of sitting around a camp fire. Plus, it is really fun to watch them puff up in the oven!

I hope you enjoy the desserts. If you want the recipe for the Caramel Fudge Cheesecake I can email it to you. As for the S'more Brownie, you can go here.

Happy Baking!
