Photo Chocolate Overload by SiFu Renka
Well, I've never heard the adjective "crackly" be applied to a brownie, but I'm willing to admit that a "crackly brownie" actually does sound extra yummy!
Check these out--how would you like to be presented with THIS pan-o-brownies?

I know what you're thinking--"Whah? How can this be? Chocolate Apple Pie????"
Well folks, chocolate goes with every food on the planet, so it was just a matter of time before a chocoholic genius figured out a way to infiltrate apple pie with fudgyiness.
I am willing to bet that this is DIVINE!
What do you think?

Photo Nib Nougatine Brownies by ^-^liz
Wow, these are looking mighty tasty, aren't they?
When I first saw the recipe, I wondered "What is a nib nougatine exactly?"
Well, it looks like it's a type of brittle (like peanut brittle) except made with cocoa nibs.
It's the stuff that looks like pieces of amber jewels on the plate there.
Then you place the nougatine on top of the brownie batter and bake.
I think you end up with a praline like center--not sure, but really how can you go wrong?
This looks delish and kind of exotic for a brownie!

As you can see, I'm on a pumpkin kick with all these delish choco-pumpkin concoctions.
It is almost Halloween, people!
The air is a little cooler, so it sort of feels like the beginning of Fall--we must make pumpkin-y stuff now!
And for some reason I think that anything with pumpkin in it is perfect for breakfast--it's a fruit, is it not?

I think I may be in love--just look at this brownie!
Check the moistness of the bottom layer, then that delectable minty green layer, then the fudge frosting and it looks like Andes Candies crushed and sprinkled on top.
Could it get any better?
Ever since I saw this brownie, I have been craving one just like it!

Sometimes you can take a basic recipe and send it over the moon by simply making some spicy substitutions.
Remember the time when that other baker used spicy nuts in her brownies instead of the regular nuts? Genius!
Well this inventive baker/photographer took a basic Martha Stewart recipe for Chocolate Truffle Brownies and substituted chili chocolate ganache for the plain semi-sweet chocolate ganache that the recipe called for.
To accomplish this, I think you would just take some chili spiced chocolate (you can buy chili chocolate bars all over the place nowadays) and use that in the frosting part of the recipe.
Warning! Be sure that you have an ice cold glass of milk within reach when you take a bite of these--I hear they're SPICY!

Rich Chocolate Oreo Brownies by B&LElie
Well, I never thought it would be possible to improve on an Oreo cookie, but this brownie proves me wrong!
Look at the chunks of Oreo in that brownie--it's like finding a little treasure in every bite!
If I were to make these, I would definitely use Double Stuff Oreos, and you know that the fillings come in all sorts of flavors, like Mint, Peanut Butter, Chocolate and even Caramel.
I would definitely try this with the Mint and Peanut Butter Oreos! That would be amazing!

Cheesecake Blondie Originally uploaded by B&LElie
Here we have three of the finest culinary masterpieces on the planet--
Cheesecake + Chocolate Chips + A Blondie = Sheer decadence!
This does not look that hard to make, basically about as hard as making a pan of brownies. The cheesecake part is easier than you would think it would be.
A little work = Big payoff!

Black Bean Brownie with Soy Dream & Strawberries by Loren Worsley
I know, I know--I couldn't believe it when I first saw the recipe either.
You know how ingenious the Vegans are--they will find any way to make chocolate desserts that are uber rich and decadent.
Exhibit A--please regard this innocent looking brownie. Who would have guessed that it had black beans inside taking the place of flour?
I first saw this over at 101 Cookbooks and the photos of this dessert are amazing over there! (See the link for "Amazing Black Bean Brownies" below).
Apparently black bean brownies are now being sold in at least one restaurant, and folks are going ga-ga over them!!!
I am so tempted to make these just so I can give them to unsuspecting people and then let them know they've been eating black bean brownies :-) .
Plus, they're healthier for you!
Will any of you be trying these?
