I love caramel candy, but I’m not a big fan of of the stick in your teeth, hard to chew variety of caramels. Back when I first posted this recipe, there weren’t a lot of options for plain caramel candies at my local grocery store. In fact, there was...

These are a true chocoholic’s cookie. They are essentially a cross between a brownie and a cookie, featuring a deep, dark chocolate flavor in the base cookie with layered dark, milk and white chocolate flavors coming from the abundance of chocolate chips folded into them. I adapted this recipe...

This is a recipe I probably should have posted sooner. This is my go-to brownie recipe, I have used it so often that it is pretty much engraved on my brain. It is the base recipe for the majority of my brownie recipes and variations. In my previous post,...

There is a bit of an ongoing debate across the internet baking communities as to whether brownies should be made with melted chocolate, cocoa powder, or some combination of both. While I won’t go quite so far as to say I’ve never met a brownie I didn’t like, I...

This recipe has a bit of an interesting history. When I first launched Chocoholic Anonymous, the recipe management tool I was using at the time defaulted to allowing registered members of my site to submit their own recipes. I was unaware of this setting and it had not been...

While working through re-posting as many of my pre-site-crash recipes as I was able to recover, I came across this very rare find – a baked good that a) does not include any kind of chocolate and b) is savory. It isn’t that I don’t enjoy baking savory items,...

This cake recipe was one of two recipes I used to make my eldest son’s second birthday cake – the second was the Double Chocolate Chip Pound Cake. The two flavors together made up the base of the cake along with a salted toffee Swiss meringue buttercream. The dulce...
