This weeks chocolate and coffee goodness was picked by Melissa of Life in a Peanut Shell. I whipped them up last night because today is a Welcome Back luncheon in the office and I wanted to bring a sweet dessert for everyone. Some TWD'ers thought that the swirls were too pretty to cover with the sour cream icing, but I was really intrigued by the flavor combos so I wanted to do the recipe as written. Well, except for adding cocoa powder to the sour cream icing to give it some depth :-)
Other than that, exactly as written!
I haven't tried them yet (it's only 9AM!) but I'll come back and post an update after I sample a tiny piece.
**Update** Just tried a small piece and they are delicious! The brownie layer was a bit dry, as other TWD bakers found, but the coffee/chocolate/sour cream combo was fantastic. I'm not a huge cheesecake fan, so these weren't my favorite Dorie recipe, but they do taste good.

Your swirls came out beautifully!
I'm glad you liked them. Your swirls look great!
Yeah, not a favorite Dorie recipe, but I love baking through this book with everyone!
Not a keeper here. But i like the idea of a brownie base for cheesecakes.
Yours look just fine.
Oh my gosh I want one!
