Caffeine. 

Other than our kitchen manager, Lindsay, we’re all addicts.  Coffee and tea are as much a part of our day as reminding our children to pick up their coats/towels/socks off of the floor.  (Only the coffee and tea consumption evokes less eye rolls.)

We like to think that we’ve put as much thought and love into choosing our coffee and tea purveyors as we have into our delicious cookies.  It’s no wonder that as of late, we’ve fallen hard for cookies in which coffee or tea is used as flavoring.  Espresso macarons, chai tea shortbrea, green tea macarons, cappuccino creams, and now…earl grey brownies.  The brownies?  We’ve given them the usual dose of dark, thick, chocolatey goodnes.  The rub is in the frosting – an earl grey infused chocolate ganache.  The citrusy bergamot note from the tea gives these brownies lift.  As Mark, our favorite brownie customer noted, “I could eat two of these!”  And that from a one-brownie-a-day kind of guy.  Kudos to Foxfire Tea for the beautiful earl grey tea.
