Chocolate Brittle (Homemade Clodhoppers)

Chocolate Brittle

This recipe is my homemade version of Clodhoppers, which my friend likes to call "Moose Poo" but I thought chocolate brittle sounded a bit more appealing.  I always take my recipes to work but I think this is my co-workers favorite recipe because they're always asking for more.  I used to make them using Golden Grahams Cereal, but I then I started to make them from scratch and I think they taste even better!

 

 

 

Chocolate Guinness Cake

Chocolate Guinness Cake

This is one of my favorite chocolate cake recipes. It is made with Guinness beer, which gives the cake a nice rich, dense, chocolate taste. I made it for my girlfriends birthday in the summer and it seemed to be very popular. There are many different versions of this cake but this recipe is my favorite because of its awesome flavor and easiness to make. I decorated my cake with little toffee bits which gave it a more sweet taste to go along with the frosting.

One Bite Butter Balls

One Bite Butter Balls

These cookies are a cross between a shortbread cookie and a soft chocolate chip cookie. There a must-eat-one-bite-treat that have a soft buttery texture to them. I prefer to use miniature chocolate chips for this recipe because they are cutier, but you can substitute them for other chips or nuts as well.

 

 

 

 

Sticky Applesauce Brownies

Sticky Applesauce Brownies

To sum it up, this low fat brownie recipe is a ooey, gooey, sticky, chocolaty treat. I used this recipe but changed it a bit mainly because I didn't have enough cocoa powder in my cupboard. To compensate for the lack of cocoa powder, I added 1/4 tsp of Cinnamon and 1 Cup of semisweet chocolate chips, and I also used one egg rather than two egg whites. Make sure you allow the brownies to cool completely before cutting into them, otherwise it's too sticky too handle.
