AND IT'S OUTTA HERE!!!!

Sistas' we got a winner! Woo Hoo! This one is a direct hit - straight out of the ballpark! Finally a recipe that made the eyes roll back in the hubs head - he had to have a cup of coffee to cut the chocolate. SAWEEEET! So I read through the recipe and saw that I needed a 9" spring form pan, OF COURSE I have an 8" or a 10". Now I will buy a new pan if it was one I don't have - but honestly I do not need another spring form pan. The hubs said go with the 8" pan (wasn't this the guy that last week the coffee cake was too tall????). Sacrificed the hubs during a huge down pour of rain to run into the liquor store to buy the kirsch (I stayed in the car) it's cherry brandy in case you want to expand your bar tending repertoire. The rain stopped I grabbed the chocolate bars and cherries and I was good to go. Now I am thinking, chocolate and cherries, this is looking like a great start. So I broke open the package on my Brand Spankin' new Beater Blade+ and I love it !!!!



Sistas' get thy self to the store - if you don't have one of these you are not living life to the fullest!
Sur La Table $29.95 - Williams-Sonoma $39.95 - I'm just saying.....


I boiled the cherries in water and then the kirsch - then the hubs lit that sucker up. Alright it was a little lackluster, I wanted flames, I got a small rolling fire not even enough to toast a marshmallow by .... bummer.



Finished baking and assembling the torte and threw it in the refrigerator for a couple of days, we have been pretty busy. So tonight after the gym (ah, the irony) we cut the torte open and had a slice. This IS FABULOUS! and Very dangerous - it goes to the office in the morning. I don't mind losing a day at the gym - BUT not an entire week - no way. I am glad to see that CB took the initiative to post a non sweet recipe, so that's my plan for Sunday night dinner and it looks really great!
