My husband's Christmas party was catered by L'Auberge du Lac and this was the best dessert served out of many. It has a strong hint of the liquor, and a gooey chocolate taste, almost like a perfectly undercooked brownie with the pecan bits inside. Absolutely delicious, it was a phenomenal hit, served at room temperature without topping. Ingredients:
7 ounces butter |
7 ounces dark chocolate |
10 ounces granulated sugar |
3 1/2 ounces cocoa powder |
5 eggs |
2 ounces jack daniels whiskey |
6 ounces toasted pecan halves |
Directions:
1. Melt together butter and dark chocolate. 2. Using a paddle mixer, mix sugar, cocoa, whiskey and eggs. 3. Add melted chocolate mixture. 4. Scrape well. 5. Stir in pecans. 6. Pour into a greased pan lined with wax paper. (10 round). 7. Bake in a water bath at 350°F for approximately 50 minutes; or until center is 170°F. 8. Chill. 9. Serve cold or room temperature with your favorite fruit or caramel sauce. |
