Chocolate Deadly Delights
- 3 (1 ounce) unsweetened chocolate squares
- 1 cup butter
- 2 cups white sugar
- 1 1/3 cups flour, unsifted
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 4 large eggs, beaten
- 2 cups pecans, chopped
- 4 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 2 (1 ounce) unsweetened chocolate squares
- 4 cups powdered sugar, unsifted
- 1/2 cup coffee, cold
- oven 350u0b0F.
- Melt chocoalte and butter in a double boiler (or microwave) and combine till smooth.
- Add sugar, flour, vanilla and eggs - combine.
- Add nuts and stir.
- USING MINI-MUFFIN tins (or just mini-muffin cups on cookie sheets) fill about halfway full (I used a mellon baller for this) and bake 14-15 minutes.
- While deadlies are cooking - prepare frosting.
- Melt Additional 4 tbsp butter and chocolate.
- Stir in powdered sugar (use a whisk).
- Add enough coffee to make a smooth mixture (I always use all the coffee - the frosting will be very thick, but it's okay).
- Frost deadlies while they are hot -- Thick frosting will spread out in the mini-muffin cups.
- Top with pecan half, if desired.
