Experience the Holidays: Incredibly Delish Chocolate Bliss! Is it a cake? Is it a confection? Who cares? It’s smooth, creamy dreamy chocolate and it is incredible. The fact that it is flourless is a plus for those who avoid desserts for that particular reason. The dark chocolate and butter combination is divinely rich, which is why a little bit goes a long way. I find a nice cuppa joe or herbal tea creates a balance that works. As always, share a little bliss with those around you. They’ll thank you for it.
INCREDIBLY DELISH CHOCOLATE BLISS
Ingredients:
4 ounces bittersweet chocolate, chopped
6 tablespoons butter, cubed
2 eggs
1/4 cup sugar
1 teaspoon espresso powder
1/4 teaspoon almond extract
6 teaspoons chocolate hazelnut spread
Crushed pistachios for garnish
Instructions:
Preheat oven to 375°. Use paper muffin cups or buttered ramekins. Set aside. Combine bittersweet chocolate and butter in a microwave-proof bowl. Melt in microwave on high setting at 30-second intervals until melted and smooth. Stir occasionally. In a mixer bowl, combine eggs, sugar, espresso powder, and almond extract. Beat on medium-high speed for 5 minutes or until mixture is lightened. Reduce speed to low setting. Add melted chocolate/butter mixture until combined. Spoon into muffin cups or buttered ramekins. Add one half teaspoon of hazelnut spread in the center of each muffin cup batter. Bake 10 minutes until edges are set, but center is still soft. Do not over bake. Garnish with crushed pistachios. Cool 5 minutes before serving.
Poor John will be badgering me to make these.

When it looks that delicious, I tend to refrain from too many questions. It’s impolite to talk when you’re eating.
