Chocolate Deadly Delights - cooking recipe
Ingredients
-
3 (1 ounce) unsweetened chocolate squares
1 cup butter
2 cups white sugar
1 1/3 cups flour, unsifted
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
4 large eggs, beaten
2 cups pecans, chopped
4 tablespoons unsalted butter
2 (1 ounce) unsweetened chocolate squares
4 cups powdered sugar, unsifted
1/2 cup coffee, cold
Preparation
-
oven 350\u00b0F.
Melt chocoalte and butter in a double boiler (or microwave) and combine till smooth.
Add sugar, flour, vanilla and eggs - combine.
Add nuts and stir.
USING MINI-MUFFIN tins (or just mini-muffin cups on cookie sheets) fill about halfway full (I used a mellon baller for this) and bake 14-15 minutes.
While deadlies are cooking - prepare frosting.
Melt Additional 4 tbsp butter and chocolate.
Stir in powdered sugar (use a whisk).
Add enough coffee to make a smooth mixture (I always use all the coffee - the frosting will be very thick, but it's okay).
Frost deadlies while they are hot -- Thick frosting will spread out in the mini-muffin cups.
Top with pecan half, if desired.
