TWD: Tribute to Katherine Hepburn Brownies

Hello TWDers! It feels like forever since my last TWD post. I missed out on great recipes last month and I definitely need to play catch up. I had uninterrupted access to my in-laws kitchen this weekend and jumped at the chance of doing some baking. It felt great to be back in the kitchen and I can't wait until we are in our home so that I can get back into my cooking and baking routines. This week Lisa of Surviving Oz chose Dorie's Tribute to Katherine Hepburn Brownies. The brownies came together easily and I was really excited about trying this recipe. The batter was thick and the brownies came out of the oven fudgy and incredibly rich. My in-laws and Abuela liked them but, unfortunately, Alex and I didn't. Alex said they tasted too much like dark chocolate (and I used semi-sweet chocolate instead of bittersweet) and I thought the brownies tasted too much like coffee.

Thanks to Lisa for her selection and for also creating a great new logo for TWD. Don't forget to check out her blog for the recipe and the TWD site to see what all the other bakers did with this week's selection.

Great job! It's not easy baking in someone else's kitchen. Sorry these weren't exactly what you were craving!
