Sick of Christmas stuff yet? Tuff. I've got a few more Christmas recipes to share, and today being Chocolate Friday, is all about the sweet brown ones.
First, from our friend the KeeWee: Afghan Biscuits, a "deceptively decadent chocolate biscuit ideal with coffee, after dinner or as a small treat".
Next, the traditional Christmas cake in France is a log: Chocolate Logs. This recipe is like an extended cookie sandwich. It says to use "sweet biscuits" (that's a cookie for us 'mericans), but it doesn't say what kind, so I suggest using the most chocolately cookies you can find. Go Choco!
An easy Christmas recipe for kids from Nestle: Chocolate Christmas Tree.
From Italy: Christmas Chocolate Bread. This recipe actually sounds a lot like fruitcake, with a chocolate twist. Which reminds me, I'm going to post a funny little song my aunt wrote, and her church kids recorded, about fruitcake. If we can get it converted to mp3.
Ok, last recipe is from the Olympic Chocolate Festival website: Crazy Chocolate Cake, made with no eggs or butter. I was surprised to find out there's a Chocolate Festival held in Sequim (that's pronounced skwim), WA every year. Another good reason to visit my home state. I'm marking the date for the next one - April 22, 2006. Thanks to Cynthia for letting me know about this!
Merry Chocolately Christmas!
HUm ... :)
Merry Chocolately Christmas to you too and thanks for the recipes!
