chocolate for valentine's day

for valentine's day (spent in pajamas with erin and claire #2, watching movies), i made these Chocolate Puddle Cookies - and took a picture so you can (maybe) see what they look like.  they were really easy to make and delish and many still reside in my fridge (i need to take them to work tomorrow).  they are dangerously delicious and not very good for you, so i can't let them stay in my house for too long.  i got the recipe off of a blog i read called "101 cookbooks" (the number of cookbooks, apparently, that the author owns).  it's a great blog if you're looking for organic or healthy-but-still-tasty recipes.  check her out.

i had to learn how to toast walnuts in order to make this recipe.  yes, this is not hard, but i'd never done it before, so - good rule follower that i am - i looked up a how-to guide.
