Dessert from your slow cooker? You betcha! Sticky and sweet, this cake reinvents the classic combination of peanut butter and chocolate and is ready in just two hours.
We've made this classic stripped-down version of the dessert crêpe decadent with nothing more than a drizzling of simple chocolate sauce and a dollop of whipped cream.
The flavour trifecta of chocolate, star anise and orange make these biscotti sing. They're so delicious that they will vanish before your eyes.
A combination of our two favourite Easter treats, hot cross buns with chocolate are extra delicious. Purists, worry not—we’ve also included the option to add dried fruit!
One cookie is just fine, but a cookie within a cookie is so much better! Tucked inside each of these tender chocolate goodies is a cool peppermint candy cane dough which makes every bite an absolute delight.
These buttery chocolate and vanilla cake-like treats are best enjoyed the same day they're made, meaning they're a great dessert to make on short notice. To preserve the freshness of any leftover ground almonds, store them in an airtight container in your freezer.
Look for white chocolate cigars at specialty chocolate shops, baking supply stores or online. Once you've tracked them down, measure their diameter and calculate how many you need to cover 38-inch (97 cm) and 26-inch (66 cm) round cakes. Of course, you'll want to have extras for any repair work. You will need double-sided tape to fasten the ribbons around the cakes, and twine to tie wildflowers in a delicate bundle.
Serve this rich chocolate sauce with poached fruit, ice cream, crêpes or freshly baked profiteroles. Or, for a thoughtful gift, spoon the sauce into a small glass jar and adorn with a festive ribbon. Attach a label with instructions to keep it chilled, and include a best-before date.
Using a blender to mix the milk and chocolate gives this indulgent drink a lovely frothy texture. Just make sure to cover the lid's vent with a kitchen towel so none of the hot milk splatters while the motor is running.
