Sinfulness

Let me introduce you to my new summer fling.  Nope, it’s not a man.  And hey, it’s not even food–er not exactly anyway.  If you consider chocolate a food then yes, my fling does include food. What I mean to say my focus is not the food this time.   Actually, I’m suffering from a new enthusiasm that includes but not limited to quaint little dishes in which to display my latest and greatest concoctions.  Sometimes even I am surprised at what nudges me into devising a new recipe.  I’ll see a sunflower dish and think a nice little cut of lasagna would brighten the color and certainly add to the allure of that plate.  The cuteness of these stubby midget glasses equipped with their own miniature baby spoons has spawned a bouquet of ideas.  Tuna Tar Tar, mango salsa with crab meat, a layered chocolate cream pudding with an oreo crumble, I could do this all night you know.  Though this is what swims around in my head–the land of good and plenty–  ideas that is, one simple dessert kept coming to the forefront of my mind and somehow found it’s way as the lead contender of what my stubby glasses would entertain.   I guess you’re waiting on a name.  See, I come up with the idea.  I make it and then I write the recipe and for some ungodly reason I feel the need to name it as well.  And as cliche’ as this seriously sounds, all I could think of after one taste was how wrong, dreadfully wrong I felt for feeling so good.  Pure satisfaction as if the world could disappear the decadence flirted and mingled with my senses.  So, yeah, “sinfulness”.   That’s all I could come up with.  The chocolate rolled over my taste buds as I noshed what seemed to linger for, well minutes when that song came to mind.  “If loving you is wrong, I don’t wanna be right.” Okay, I know I just revealed my age and made public just how corny I really can be.  Whatever!  You know you’d eat it now after that review.  The name must’ve stuck since I served it at the cafe and that’s how the girls introduced the short dark and very handsome glass of gorgeous.  I was not one bit surprised that everyone loved it.  Could’ve been the visual of a perfectly short in stature compact one of a kind chocolate dessert, or just the nature of the allure “sinfulness” seems to conjure.  Either way, these were a perfect diversion of the usual display of my desserts.  However, I wouldn’t let the wee(ness) visual fool you.  I stuffed almost two brownies slathered in a to die for sauce in each one of the glasses.  No lie!

Chocolate decadence in a classy presentation. Better than sex this little number certainly wows!

Ingredients

Instructions

  1. Prepare brown mix according to package. While that’s baking. Combine the chocolate chips, butter and syrup in a microwave safe bowl. Melt for 30 seconds. Sir. Melt again for 30 seconds. Stir. Repeat again until fully melted. Do it in intervals of 30 seconds otherwise you will burn your chocolate or make it lumpy. In a sauce pan place the peaches along with the butter, brown sugar, and rum. Bring to a boil for 2 minutes. I cut up the peaches but for speed you can put this in a food processor and rough chop it.
