This was absolutely fabulous. I followed others recommendations and added 1 tsp. of instant coffee 1 tsp. of vanilla and dusted the nuts with flour. For my own personal taste I used (4) squares of semi-sweet chocolate and (2) squares of bittersweet. It was dark rich and decadent. I also served it with fresh sweetened whipped cream. Will be making it with pecans today may try it with macadamia nuts too. Read More

I didn't think this was that great. I made 2 of them and neither turned out that well. The center took a long time to cook much longer than 35 min. and the edges were a little hard. Read More

Even better the second day if that is possible deep rich chocolate flavor so easy to prepare! I used chopped pecans coated with flour so they would not sink 1 tsp vanilla and 1 tsp instant coffee I only had unsweetened chocolate squares so just added granulated sugar to taste while cooling - this is a keeper! I made 2 and froze one for later - but that may be very soon! Read More
