Thanks for the great recipe!  I made it ecxtaly as written, although we couldn't wait for it to completely cool before slicing a couple of pieces and dusting them with powdered sugar.  My boyfriend had a hard time believing it contained no flour.  YUM!  It should be noted that the five eggs provide not only structure but quite a bit of flavor and aroma as well.  I'll be making the Chocolate Espresso Chewies next! http://kdpxebs.com [url=http://xdabiakm.com]xdabiakm[/url] [link=http://orboaitvoub.com]orboaitvoub[/link]

Thanks for the great recipe! I made it ecxtaly as written, although we couldn't wait for it to completely cool before slicing a couple of pieces and dusting them with powdered sugar. My boyfriend had a hard time believing it contained no flour. YUM! It should be noted that the five eggs provide not only structure but quite a bit of flavor and aroma as well. I'll be making the Chocolate Espresso Chewies next! http://kdpxebs.com [url=http://xdabiakm.com]xdabiakm[/url] [link=http://orboaitvoub.com]orboaitvoub[/link]
