The cake was good but didn't really like the sauce. The concept is great. -
This had a very unusual texture and appearance. I tried my hardest sell it to my family by serving it up in pretty little bowls, but my family didn't buy it. It did take an elegant picture, though. -
I came across this recipe just this morning in an old issue of Taste of Home (Apr/May 1994). I thought it sounded like a cozy dessert for a rainy night so I made it and served it warm with whipped cream. It is really yummy just as written and I would not change a thing. Thx for posting. -
This was delicious! But I felt that it was lacking ... *something* I'm just not sure what, exactly. At any rate, it's a wonderful chocolate fix, and with that fudgy syrup in the bottom, there's no way to go wrong! -
Easy, quick, delicious and a conversation piece all in one, this results in an inch of fudge brownie cake floating on half an inch of thick chocolate fudge sauce. We served it with vanilla ice cream. Fabulous! Made for PAC March 2008.

I don't think there's anything better than spending time with family and friends and enjoying delicious food together. I just love food. I love reading about food, writing about food, cooking food and.. not surprisingly, eating food. My latest passion is food-photography! I'm still learning a lot, but I'm trying to post photos with all my recipes and reviews. I read recipe books, magazines and food blogs like novels. I get such satisfaction when someone enjoys a meal or dessert that I have prepared. It is the biggest compliment to me when my family and friends rave about my cooking. There are so many terrific recipes on this site. If I'm looking for something, I'm sure to find it here. I do have stacks of my own favorite recipes which I am slowly but surely getting in my cookbooks here . I have had so many awesome reviews and fabulous photos taken of my recipes... I try to thank everyone personally .. I sincerely appreciate each and every review and or comment left. I know it takes time to photograph and upload photos - So I want to say thank you from the bottom of my heart for finding and trying my recipes and taking the extra effort...
