This simply delicious dessert might be my favorite of all time - it's easily the sexiest dessert I make, and it's so simple it's a crime.

It might even be perfect for breakfast.
Seriously. Did I mention this is chocolate heaven? CHOCOLATE HEAVEN, friends.
PS - buy the best quality chocolate chips. Don't even consider skimping. If you want to kick it up a notch, you could use port instead of coffee too. (Might I suggest Ficklin Port? I love those people and their winery too. You tell them I said hi when you call.)
Feel free to thank me after you make this. Or just tell your friends to come try my recipe too.
