MMMMM----- Recipe via Meal-Master (tm) v8.06 Title: Chocolate Salty Balls * Categories: Chocolate, Booze, Snacks, Desserts Yield: 24 Servings 2/3 c Salted butter 1 1/2 c Sugar 1/4 c Brandy 4 c Semisweet chocolate chips 2 ts Vanilla extract 4 lg Eggs 2 tb Cinnamon 1 1/2 c All-purpose flour 1/2 ts Baking soda 1/2 ts Table salt Coarse sea salt In a saucepan, bring the butter, sugar and brandy to a boil, stirring constantly. Remove from the heat. Stir (with a wooden spoon) in 2 cups of chocolate chips until melted. Remember to give that spoon a lick! Cool mixture slightly. Stir in vanilla. In a large mixing bowl, beat the eggs. Gradually add the chocolate mixture and mix well. Combine the flour, baking soda and salt, then gradually add the dry ingredients to the chocolate mixture. Stir in any remaining chocolate chips. Spread into a greased baking pan. Bake at 325°F/160°C for 35-45 minutes or until a fork inserted in the center comes out clean. Careful not to burn your balls! Let cool just enough that it won't burn your hands. Meanwhile set up a small plate or cutting board with some of the sea salt on it. Scrape up the brownie mix, working around the edges. You don't want to use the hard edges for the balls. Begin shaping 1" balls out of the mix, give or take in size. Roll the balls in the salt. Do this very lightly, a little sea salt goes a very long way. If you do happen to oversalt, just brush the excess salt crystals off. Too much salt is bad, mmmkay? You're done, put 'em in your mouth and suck 'em! * From the South Park television series. The recipe comes from one of those comedic misguided soul songs, probably the most popular song from the show, titled "Chocolate Salty Balls." I warn you it's totally NSFW (or for the squeamish, or easily offended, OR children). From: http://www.geekychef.com Uncle Dirty Dave's Archives MMMMM
