#lifethroughchocolate

Wunderbar Cookies didn't happen tonight- I ended up with this chocolate cake instead. This is a two-layer affair with chocolate cream cheese filling and frosting and enrobed with toasted chocolate cake crumbs. I'll garnish this with fresh berries before serving tomorrow.

The bad-ass Brownie #lifethroughchocolate 📍: @noglunyc ____ GUESS WHAT! Not only is this brownie gluten free, but we've got the scoop about the founder of No Glu on a new blog coming soon. Stay tuned! (at Noglu NY)

Doughnuts for dinner? Yes, please! #lifethroughchocolate 📍: @broadst_doughco ____ Broad Street Dough Co. designs innovative flavors or let's you customize your own. I'm re-labeling this one the "it's-almost-Friday" doughnut. It not only looks like a party but tastes like one 🎉 (at Broad Street Dough Co.)

When Tuesday feels like Monday and you need a Nutella latte to make it through #lifethroughchocolate 📍: @3beancoffee ____ Fluffy latte with Nutella 😍 everything you could want in a cup, caffeine and chocolate, from a cute little coffee shop in Fed Hill, Baltimore. A great place to write, to enjoy the company of friends and to slurp down a latte lost in thought. Happy not Monday? Cheers to that! (at 3 Bean Coffee)

Nutty for Nutella #lifethroughchocolate 📍: @_mamannyc_ ____ Happy Labor Day! Hope your day off is as sweet as biting into this soft, flaky pastry covered with sugar and filled with rich Nutella from Maman Tribeca. Oh, and in case you're one of those "judge-a-book-by-it's-cover" people, the pastry comes on a beautiful plate topped with Nutella icing and chocolate balls. (at Maman Tribeca)

Fall-ing for these doughnuts #lifethroughchocolate 📍: @broadst_doughco ____ Testing out the incredible fall flavors from Broadstreet Doughnut Company. This doughnut shop based in New Jersey is constantly experimenting with innovative new flavors and has an array of doughnuts including some vegan and gluten free! They can customize any doughnut just the way you like it. A few of my favorites from this box of fall flavors were the caramel apple, the pumpkin spice cheesecake doughnut and of course the s'mores topped doughnut. Can you believe it's already September?!
