Chocolate Bake Off

The chocolate bake off was really the best idea ever.  I take credit for it.  It was awesome.  My Mom instilled in all of us a love of cooking good food, and it's really awesome when we get to do it together.  

The rules were simple.  It had to be made from scratch, it had to be a dessert and it had to have chocolate in it.  After we were all done cooking we would then have the desserts taste tested and judged by the boys.  As soon as the desserts started coming out of the oven they were being devoured.  They were all delicious. 

Lisa: Flourless Chocolate Cake with whipped cream and a raspberry on top

Kimberly: Coconut Macaroons dipped in chocolate with raspberries on top

Tamara: Chocolate Biscuits on top of a layer of raspberries served with vanilla ice cream

Me: Brownies with thin mints in the batter and andies mints melted on top

Jenn: Chocolate Chip Cookies with nutella and peanut butter in the middle
Karalee: Peanut butter cheesecake balls dipped in chocolate

I hope to get links for these recipes because we shouldn't keep all of this awesomeness to ourselves.

Kimberly and Tamara won. I bow out gracefully.  Too good not to have several helpings.  I don't know what we'll do next year but I'm sure it will be awesome.

I had to laugh when I saw this photo.  I didn't notice Derrick at first. Haha!

Hating myself for not turning my camera on this one and getting Mom too.  Lame.
