During Lent many people try to give up sweets. Some just chocolate. Others, like me, try to give up chocolate for good.
I’ve been telling you a while back that I haven’t eaten chocolate for some time and trying hard to stay away from it.
Looking at these buns, clearly I can’t be trusted. I gave in. Had to had some chocolate. I should be sleeping on the treadmill.
And if the chocolate inside wasn’t enough, I drizzled some on top. There’s never too much chocolate, is it?
I loved every bite of these buns. The recipe is easy and the it rises so quickly.
In my opinion, if you follow the recipe you should divide the dough into 16 or even 20 balls. This time I made 12 but I found them a little too big after baking.
There’s something else left out in the recipe : how to stop eating them !!! they’re addictive
To get the recipe for these heavenly delicious buns with stunning photos you have to go to Sandra’s blog.
I started reading Sandra’s blog few months ago. Her amazing photos, her sense of humor and the family meals make me go back every time I receive an email she posted something new.
If you have never visited Sandra’s blog take my advice and have some tissues handy, you’ll need them to wipe your chin after all that drooling. Look at these Sweet Potatoes Phyllo Cups she made for Mardi Gras or the Oscar inspired menu
Thank you everyone for visiting. Hope you’ll have a wonderful sunny weekend.
As usual,
Roxana
My friend Monet from Anecdotes and Apples, has suffered a family tragedy. Her oldest sister and her family were in a terrible accident, her nephew passed away, and her sister and brother in law are in critical condition. If you haven’t already, please reach out to Monet and her family, and send her love, prayers, and support. She needs all of us more than ever

So sorry to hear about Monet
I pray God gives her strength to go through this time!
she is a genius!
I love the way you click the pics.. beautiful photography seriously!
I am a regular visitor of Sandra's blog and i agree with you on the tissue
hehehe! You are too funny! I have never given up chocolate before so I know I would do the same. At my best I try to cut back on how much sugar I have, but that doesn’t always work out for me
These look beautiful. The way you drizzled the chocolate on top looks awesome! I hope you have a fantastic weekend!
Awesome buns…I couldn't resist, either!
Thanks for reminding the blogger world about sweet Monet…I'm keeping her close in my prayers~
Oh boy, you can't go wrong with chocolate and I love how you drizzled it onto your buns so prettily. I have a sweet treat linky party going on at my blog and I'd like to invite you to stop by and link your buns up. http://sweet-as-sugar-cookies.blogspot.com/2011/03/sweets-for-saturday-10.html
I feel sad by the thought what she and her family is going through…hope she find the light!
Thank you Roxana for making these, they came out perfect and delicious! And photos are just stunning!
I am so glad that you enjoyed, and yes I did warn people that I had to be removed from kitchen physically because I couldn't stop eating.:)
Have a wonderful day!
Rox – your pics continue to amaze me
I do have one request, if you have a shot of the inside of the bun – it would just make my chocolate free weekend complete
You are making even a non-chocolate lover like me drool! How's this possible. I think the last 20 recipes I've added to my wish to bake list all come from your blog. I need to start making them this weekend.
They look stunning! I love your photos!
very nice,delicious
For Lent I always give up meat and fish….though I would always think this time I should give up sweets and chocolates….but then sticking to that is pretty difficult…so its always meat and fish…and boy! these buns are looking soooo yummy that I just feel like grabbing one…have a wonderful Sunday.
What perfect little buns!
Mandy
I have been bad too…So busy with work.
The buns are to die for and if voting is still on I will vote…going there right now. Good Luck!
Monet's family is definitely in my prayers!
And these buns are pretty wonderful!! Sandra does have some mouth watering recipes. Love these photos too!!
These are absolutely beautiful. I think I'll make them for our Easter Sunday brunch. It really is a lovely recipe and the photos are terrific. I hope you have a great day. Blessings…Mary
What a great recipe! And the photos are just beautiful
Stunning photos! And a delicious sounding recipe!
Wonderful!!!! Thank you for sharing
These look absolutely sinful! If they were sitting in front of me I would gobble them all up without a second thought even though I give up all sweets (and red meat, and alcohol, and fried food) for lent. I guess I just like to torture myself! Your photos are gorgeous! Have a great weekend
chocolate sounds good enought for me already. chocolate filled bun is heaven.delicious looking photo!
Hi Roxana, you have a beautiful blog, creative recipes and your photos are stunning;-)
Roxana, these buns already caught my eyes once on Sandra's awesome blog, but yours look just as delicious and now I will be obsessing once more over them. They look simply gorgeous!

These are beautiful buns, and filled with chocolate, too. I'm quickly loosing my will power.
congrats on the top 9
These look incredibly delicious, I really wanted to see inside
Oh my….chocolate filled buns….I'm going to have to try this. Love the drizzle.
I adore Sandra's site as well and she is such a sweet heart…These came out so amazing! Good thing I am not your neighbor, I would weigh 300 lbs and you would probably have to get a restraining order
It is very horrific about Monet and her family, they are always in our thoughts.
Something about the words filled buns brings out my immature side. hehe. These do look beautiful though. And your dishes are awesome. Love those little plates. I give you kudos for trying to cut back on the chocolate – Im not sure I have the willpower to even try.
Lovely looking buns … and not to mention, with the addition of chocolate they must have tasted divine…
