Don’t Forget That Powdered Sugar Now…

Tuesday, July 10, 2012
Buttery, rich and velvety chocolate has my name written all over it. So when I spotted this decadent-looking brownie recipe in a cookbook stirred up in Thomas Keller’s fabulous Ad Hoc restaurant, I knew it just had to be made! Was it the melted butter hugging the cocoa and chopped chocolate into a long kiss? [...]
