One of The Most Decadent Quick Breads I Have Ever Made

Oh my! Ever had a craving for chocolate? Well this should do the trick for satisfying that sweet tooth. There is just something  luscious about a well baked quick bread. My mom used to make quick breads all the time and when I was a kid in 4-H I was always trying new recipes to enter in the county fair. I remember making anorange cranberry bread that was pretty darned good, if I say so myself, but I bet this recipe would have been a blue ribbon winner for sure.

The balance of cocoa and sweetness is perfect and it literally just melts in your mouth from the very first taste.

In fact you might want to go ahead and make a double batch of this recipe because I will guarantee you that one loaf is going to disappear so quickly you might even start a riot.

This is what Mel of Mels Kitchen Café has to say about this amazingly delicious recipe.

Simple as simple can be, this bread is exactly what a quick bread should be: quick and extremely non-fussy.

I grew up not far from a place called Apple Hill. I love anything made with apples and that includes apple butter. My oldest son is a huge lover of the brown spicy apple goodness. I think it was from remembering how the house smelled when I would have a huge crock-pot of peeled, sliced, and cooking apples mixed with cinnamon and nutmeg. I used to cook it for about three days. The house smelled so amazing! The taste was even more incredible.

Nathan asked if he brought me the apples me would I make apple butter. I totally agreed. At the time Nathan was working for a man with a few trees. . He told Nathan he could have as many apples as he wanted if he picked them.  Later that day I came into the house to find 4 laundry baskets of apples. Let’s just say we ate a lot of apple butter that year: ~D
