I am finally done being ward senior! What does that mean? Well hopefully you will be seeing a little more of me for one… and that I get somewhat of a life back! No more 16 hour days for this girl… at least for a couple months…
I made this recipe for my team who worked so hard this month on MTU! You know who you are! and thank you! I also let the boyfriend sample some… and he approved so hopefully you all do too!
I will keep this post short since I am still on call and just got home from the hospital. I am hoping I don’t have to go back! But it’s endocrine so I really can’t complain.
Anyways let me know what you think about this one! I always love feedback.
*** NOTE: A kind reader pointed out that I forgot to include the cocoa powder in the ingredients list, so this recipe was altered on August 13, 2014 to include that.

Just made this tonight, it tasted great only problem was I couldn't slice it, it crumbled and required scooping. I don't know what I did or didn't do but it tasted great so I will try again another time.
Hmm I have never had that happen! Did it seem cooked the whole way through? Did you let it sit in the pan for a couple hours after? I am trying to figure out what might have gone wrong…
Im not to good with baking so I'm never too surprised when thi nh s like this happen to me. I had it in for 45 minutes, maybe my oven needed longer. I did let it sit in the pan too and did not forget to add anything, I double checked.
Jessica I am annoyed that this didn't work for you! Maybe try cooking for a few extra minutes next time? My other idea is that once you remove it from the pan, stick it in the fridge for 15-20 minutes, this may help it hold together better… Keep me posted! I would love for it to work for you 🙂
I have had similar problems with this recipe. I feel like a ingredient might be missing from the list? The texture of mine is nothing like the picture.
Oh my goodness thanks for letting me know! I am so sorry but the almond flour was missing from the ingredient list! It must have turned out terrible! I had my blog transferred from square space to WordPress earlier this year and so many of the recipes got messed up in the process. Again I am so sorry!
