dulce de leche fudge brownies.

Almost Fudge Gateau

May 6th, 2008

Yay I have finally crossed something off my To-Bake list!!! I found this when trawling through previous Tuesday’s with Dorie entries and it looked so good and I had everything it required!! It really is a super easy and super satisfying cake.

I used half 62% and half 72% so it was overly rich but hey thats the way I like it. The recipe is at Crazy Delicious Food. Pics after the jump.

I felt like baking and jam… and trying out the much famed vanilla vanilla magnolia cupcake recipe. Of course you could use whatever jam you have on hand. I desperately wanted a cream cheese frosting but darn it there was none in the fridge (surprise surprise this stuff doesn’t last long around here), and for reasons I will not mention but are painfully related to cycling to and from work I did not feel like walking to the supermarket!! OW.
