Chewy Brownies

I realized the other week that I am no longer "cool." All this came about in a conversation with my brother who is, coincidentally, "cool." He was playing his music and I was listening like the awesome big sister I am and I asked him if people could krump to it. That's right. Krump. Because I thought krumping was what youngsters were into these days.

And I glanced at him and he was laughing and trying not to show it, and I was informed that krumping is no longer a thing; people just dance. 

I referenced a thing as though it were cool while blissfully unaware that said thing had ceased being cool. It's happened, world. I have crossed the line into irrelevance . . . at least where pop culture is concerned. Aaannnd given the rise of the twerking phenomena, I'm finding I am actually totally okay with this. 

But you know what? After a long search, I have found a recipe for a chocolaty, chewy brownie that will rock your world . . . even if it's a world in which krumping does not exist. And personally, I think that's pretty cool.

Chocolate Bundt Cake: Easy Elegance for Any Occassion

We had a wedding once, almost two years ago. (Two years. Holy cow.) It was a lovely wedding for many reasons, one of which is the cake you see below. It was a fabulous, made from scratch, good-as-all-get-out cake. Or cakes, rather. We made quite a few for our guests. 


 And today, I will show you how to make your very own.

Petit Pains au Chocolat

Have you ever said to yourself, "Man, I wish I could wake up in Paris and walk out of my glamorous hotel in a fabulous euro-chic outfit to an adorable parisian cafe and order a delectable chocolate pastry?"


Me too. Hence these.

These cakes, y'all. They were made for cool autumn evenings. You can of course have them any time - my only concern is that you have them as soon as humanly possible.
