Strictly Chocolate:Brownie Tart

I missed last week...well, actually I only missed posting my recipe on Saturday.  

The problem is that all summer long I have been off schedule 

and I have NOT reserved chocolate for my Saturdays.  

So here I am attempting to get my eating habits back on a schedule 

and eat healthier during the week.  

A couple of weeks ago, I made a trip to Borders Book Store,which is now closing.  :-(

But before that happened I was in their cookbook section and came home with two inspiring cookbooks.  

The first book I picked up was "500 Chocolate Delights"

and it certainly is delightful!

Usually prior to cooking I have to make a trip to the grocery store to buy some special ingredient.  Today I am desperately in need of a long strolling tour of the grocery store to stock up on everything from butter to produce so when I found this recipe that made me drool and I had everything in my pantry I jumped at the chance to whip it up.

It is so simple.  

Melt

Stir

Bake

Drool!

Brownie Tart

Moist and light, heavenly chocolatey and just the right sweet!

Not just a brownie but stepping up to a more sophisticated palette.

• In a saucepan melt 3 ounces of unsweetened chocolate with 1/3 cup of unsalted butter.
• Take off of the heat and add: 2 eggs slightly beaten, 1 cup sugar and 1 tsp. vanilla.
• Stir to blend.
• Add 1/2 cup flour, 1/2 tsp. baking powder, 1/2 tsp. salt.
• Optional: 1/2 cups nuts
• Garnish with whipped cream and raspberries if you wish.  
• Bake at 350 degrees for 20 minutes in a greased 9 1/2 inch tart pan.

Serve it simply for your family or dress it up for guests.  

Or better yet dress it up for your family!  

I hope you enjoy it as much as I am!
