On The Third Day of Chocolate: Pamela's Products Review and Giveaway

I suspect from the theme of this giveaway event you can figure out that I love chocolate.
Mmmmm, chocolate.

Pamela's Products has a full line of yummy products including many that are - all together now -

CHOCOLATE!

Pamela's Products was started for people with allergies here is some information from the site:

I spent my summers in my family’s bakery, packing rice and soy cookies for people with special dietary needs. Although these dry, tasteless cookies were in high demand, they were not particularly appetizing. At a young age, I could relate to those who had to eat these “weird” foods. I imagined life with food allergies and without the joys a great chocolate chip cookie. I pondered my own enjoyment of cookies and food and contemplated what life would be like if all I could eat were the rice and soy cookies I packed everyday. I suggested making the wheat-free and gluten-free cookies taste better, but I was told that “the allergy people were fine and happy to have something”. Back then the Health Food Industry was much less interested in taste. Health food was known to be dry, hard, and crumbly but always nutritious. 
In 1988, after college I left the family business to start my own independent company founded on the premise that wheat-free and gluten-free foods can taste great and that everyone should have food delicious enough to celebrate. My company, Pamela’s Products, continues to lead the industry with award winning decadent and delicious gluten-free foods.

I will attest right here and now that the two items I was sent to sample were DELICIOUS and if I had not been told I never would have known they were gluten free.



The first yummy product I tried was the Extreme Chocolate Simplebite. It was a small bite of crispy on the outside but still chewy chocolately goodness. I erm, ate the whole bag - well almost. I did let hubby eat one or two and he liked them as well.



I was also sent the Chocolate Brownie Mix. I saved this for one night when I had company for dinner. It was very easy to make; I just mixed it up in the bowl with some oil and water (there are several variations for how you would like your brownies to come out)



Baked them



Then I cut them into circles with my biscuit cutter



Topped the circles with goat's milk ice cream



Added some cherries



Then a balsamic syrup.



Mmmm. It was a hit. The brownie was rich, fudgey and decadent. A perfect base for the rest of the dessert.
