I likewise appear to have relapsed to the main trimester again where certain scents and tastes send me over the edge just as specific longings that I only *have* to have. A week ago? Red Velvet everything. It's bizarre on the grounds that it's not ordinarily my #1 must have season (I regularly pick lemon or salted caramel,) yet once I got the possibility of these treats in my mind I needed to have them.
The base is a chewy cocoa-y treat with fresh edges and excessively delicate middles. I included dim chocolate chips and ocean salt for the sake of entertainment, and bested them with a feathery cream cheddar icing. They are merry and flavorful, the ideal Vday treat as I would see it!
