As Hubby popped a whole one into his mouth, I reminded him of the title…two-bite…he said, okay, I’ll have another…
We. Are. There. My. Friends… Where pedal meets the metal on our quest to getting through these next few weeks in one piece and with smiles on our faces.
It’s great, right? It’s all great, but sometimes a little reward at the end of the day…in the middle of the day and at the beginning of the day is completely warranted.
I have the answer.
Two-Bite Chocolate Chip Brownies. Mm-hmmmm. Or in my hubby’s case, One-Bite Chocolate Chip Brownies.
These tiny little portion controlled treats are not at all tiny on taste.
I could have prepared the recipe in a 9×9 baking pan but I thought it would be more fun, as well as easier eating, to make mini cakes.
And they “go” with everything…wrapping presents, writing Christmas cards, watching Elf, hanging lights, admiring the tree, shoveling the walkway, waving to neighbors, heading to the mall, waiting in line…you name it – they’re the perfect complement to any of life’s holiday activities.
The thing I love about these little beauts is that they don’t require any fancy equipment…no double boiler…no candy thermometer…just a strong arm and some good old-fashioned elbow grease.
AND, they’re not overly sweet… just the right amount of sweet…
Rich, dense and chocolatey…with just the right amount of crackle…
They’re portable, they’re scrumptious and they are satisfying…
Merry Christmas!

I really appreciate this ‘two-bite’ recipe! During the season when there are so many delicious foods around, sometimes I just want a few bites so as not to exponentially expand my waistline.
