TWD: Brownie Buttons

tuesdays-with-dorie-logo

The recipe for Tuesdays with Dorie was thankfully very easy to make. And I didn't have to worry about a huge batch of something being made or having to cut down the recipe. Dorie says that you will get 16 brownie buttons but I actually got 24. Some were a little on the small side but I certainly didn't feel bad if I had an extra one!

Instead of the optional orange zest, I went with the playing around suggestion of lemon. omg...delicious! You didn't get a punch of lemon, just a subtle hint at the end of a bite. I left off the white chocolate topping this time. I wanted more of a quick snackable button and the white chocolate would tip the guilt factor to a dessert level!

iPhone picture again. Not bad.

These were a perfect after dinner snack. Not too much to make you feel guilty, but enough that you were satisfied. Perfectly chocolatey for this admitted non super chocolate fan. Definitely a make again for me!

Thanks to Jayma at Two Scientists Experimenting in the Kitchen for the pick this week! You can find the recipe at Jayma's blog . For more Brownie Buttons, check out the TWD Blogroll!

Sorry for the short post this week! 12 hour days at work stink!

I wondered how the lemon zest would turn out with chocolate - never tried that combo before so it's good to know that it tastes great!
12 hour work days? Crazy and yes, it does STINK!
