You know, two out of three isn't bad, but sometimes two out of three just can't close the deal. I love brownies, I love espresso, but I really don't like cheesecake. I can have a couple of bites of cheesecake paired with fruit, but cheesecake and chocolate is just the strangest combination to me. So, these brownies were just not meant to be a hit with yours truly. As luck would have it, I know someone who likes this combination: Dudley. I made these brownies, and I wasn't quite sure what I was going to do with them. I thought maybe I'd bring them to work, or to the party we were going to over the weekend. Dudley saw these, though, and he loved them. In fact, I had every intention of putting the sour cream topping on these babies, but I didn't get a chance to. I had to admonish him very sternly to leave me enough to take a picture. So, while I didn't try them, I'm told they're very good!

OooOooh! Nice swirls, Jessica! ...almost looks like an animal print! Well done!
They look beautiful - that is some expert swirling right there. So glad that Dudley was able to enjoy them!!
Nice pics! Sorry you didn't like them. I didn't either- but maybe next time. At least Dudley was happy!
Ha - so glad Dudley enjoyed these!!! He is such a great taster for you! Your brownies look great and I bet they tasted amazing!
Great looking brownies! The frosting was my favorite part!
Too bad you're arent a fan because they look super yummy.
They look great and I'm glad someone ate them. I'm hoping when I get home from work today the rest of mine are gone.
Great swirls! I didn't like them either, but I knew I wouldn't going into it so my expectations were very low :)
Your swirl is perfect!
I'm so glad they were a hit with Dudley. Although I love cheesecake, I completely understand you not liking it.
Your swirls look great.
That swirl is PERFECTION!!! Too bad you don't care for cheesecake. It is my all time favorite dessert.
And I didn't care for the topping at all, so maybe you didn't miss anything with that.
Ah, another addition to the "bake and release" program. Well done!
I'm finding that a lot of people don't love cheesecake- more for the friends of non cheesecake eaters I guess! They look great
Glad someone enjoyed them! They look nice.
they looked good! glad you had a fan to eat them up!
Well, your swirls look absolutely lovely! Taste buds change every 7 years, so maybe there is hope for you yet!
Wow, it looks like you actually got swirls, as opposed to blobs. Nice job!
I'm glad someone got to enjoy them. They sure look good!
Nice job...I didn't eat mine either...Dudley is very lucky to have such a treat!! :)
Lovely swirls. I'm not too much of a cheesecake fan, but I really like these.
Ha - it's always a good sign when you have to stop someone from eating them so you can take a picture!
They are really pretty, Jessica. And I'm glad that Dudley took care of these for you!
And they look so too !!!
glad you could pawn them off on someone! I think I am going to have to send them off to work with my husband because there is no way I am eating an entire tray of these myself. I thought they were just OK.
The swirls look great!
I'm glad Dudley liked them! They are gorgeous! Great swirls!
Beautiful swirls! My switling was entirely unsuccessful, and had to be covered up...
They look lovely. The ones I gave away got rave reviews too.
Gorgeous swirls!
I'm so glad Dudley enjoyed them! I wasn't sure what to do with mine either, but fortunately my neighbor wound up really enjoying them! Your swirls look awesome - great job :)
