Chocolate – Possibly the worlds perfect (breakfast) food

January6

So, for Christmas Micah & Lizzie & Simon (I think it was his idea) gave us this sweet cookbook:

 veganomicon

So, after we got home I felt like cooking up something for breakfast.  Fortunately, I consulted this cookbook first, cause I didn’t need to look far for a recipe to start my day out RIGHT.

 Chocolate Brownie Waffles

So, technically these are waffles since that’s what the recipe said and since we cooked them in our waffle iron.  In reality though, may taste buds weren’t fooled, "These are double chocolate chip brownies you’re having for breakfast."

Our boys didn’t really mind:

Burke gave this one raving reviews  Keane says 4 1/2 out of 5 stars  Neils' decision still pending

And, yes, the stacks of culinary ecstasy are vegan.*

We’re very much looking forward to trying out more of these recipes. 

*For those who don’t know, "vegan" is vegitarian but also not eating milk or eggs.  Conan (me) is vegan.

    Yum!! Looks like dessert to me, but hey, I’d eat chocolate anytime. We sure loved seeing you guys at Christmas. You’ll have to share some of those yummy recipes.
