    Title: Chocolate Salty Balls *
    Categories: Chocolate, Booze, Snacks, Desserts
    Yield: 24 Servings

    2/3 c Salted butter
    1 1/2 c Sugar
    1/4 c Brandy
    4 c Semisweet chocolate chips
    2 ts Vanilla extract
    4 lg Eggs
    2 tb Cinnamon
    1 1/2 c All-purpose flour
    1/2 ts Baking soda
    1/2 ts Table salt
    Coarse sea salt

    In a saucepan, bring the butter, sugar and brandy to a
    boil, stirring constantly. Remove from the heat. Stir
    (with a wooden spoon) in 2 cups of chocolate chips until
    melted. Remember to give that spoon a lick!

    Cool mixture slightly. Stir in vanilla. In a large mixing
    bowl, beat the eggs. Gradually add the chocolate mixture
    and mix well. Combine the flour, baking soda and salt,
    then gradually add the dry ingredients to the chocolate
    mixture. Stir in any remaining chocolate chips. Spread
    into a greased baking pan. Bake at 325øF/160øC for 35-45
    minutes or until a fork inserted in the center comes out
    clean. Careful not to burn your balls!

    Let cool just enough that it won't burn your hands.
    Meanwhile set up a small plate or cutting board with some
    of the sea salt on it. Scrape up the brownie mix, working
    around the edges. You don't want to use the hard edges for
    the balls.

    Begin shaping 1" balls out of the mix, give or take in
    size. Roll the balls in the salt. Do this very lightly, a
    little sea salt goes a very long way. If you do happen to
    oversalt, just brush the excess salt crystals off. Too
    much salt is bad, mmmkay? You're done, put 'em in your
    mouth and suck 'em!

    * From the South Park television series. The recipe comes
    from one of those comedic misguided soul songs, probably
    the most popular song from the show, titled "Chocolate
    Salty Balls." I warn you it's totally NSFW (or for the
    squeamish, or easily offended, OR children).
