A collection of scrumptious easy chocolate desserts including cakes, pies, ice cream, cookies, and dips. A chocolate lover’s dream!
Can you ever have too much chocolate? I don’t think so.
Does everyone love chocolate? Do you know anyone who doesn’t love chocolate? Think about it. I heard a joke recently, “There are two types of people in this world: people who love chocolate, and liars.”
I won’t lie, I love chocolate. While I don’t normally have a sweet tooth, chocolate is the exception, particularly dark chocolate.
I’ve collected twenty of my favorite chocolate recipes for you to peruse. I know you’ll discover one that you can’t live without. You’ll find recipes for chocolate cookies, tarts, fondue, trifles, cakes, ice cream, and more.
