Decadent Brownie Torte

<<

At a tennis match last summer, my team hosted lunch for our opponents and Decadent Brownie Torte won the day. This recipe, courtesy of Wendy Cude, was served in thin slices arranged in an attractive circular pattern on a lovely dessert plate. Decadent Brownie Torte tastes rich and fudgy taking centre court as a winning dessert!
