Caliente Brownies

Ever heard the song, "Baby, did a bad, bad thing", by Chris Isaak? Well, every time I make these brownies, that song starts playing in my head. These brownies are a sinful blend of cinnamon, cayenne, and melted dark chocolate chips. And, yes maybe they aren't heart healthy, but they will do wonders for your mood! You might have noticed that the picture of the brownie I posted is slightly undercooked. Well, that's because I can't wait for them to set. Is that bad?

3-Way, My Way Chili

I am very particular about my chili and there are few I deem good enough to eat. In a meat verses beans chili kind of world, I'm all about the meat. This version is my take on the Cinncinatti chili that has been popularized by the famous Skyline chili. I tried to stay true to the familiar ingredients found in this chili. However, I tweaked it ever so slightly to make it my own. The "3-Way" comes from one  of the various ways this chili is ordered up North. "3-Way" meaning chili, spaghetti, and cheese. If you have to have your beans (4-Way), feel free to toss them in. I'll just look the other way.
