Unsweetened chocolate adds richness and depth to this dish inspired by the mole sauces of Mexico. Serve on buns or with warm corn tortillas for a more authentic experience.
Canadian Living has published many chocolate chip cookie recipes, but founding food editor Carol Ferguson's recipe, with a punchy hit of vanilla, is the standout. You can try making these cookies with all butter as well.
Velvety chocolate cream is nestled into crumbly shortbread cups in this new holiday classic. The cups puff up slightly when baked, but you'll still have plenty of room to spoon in the rich filling.
Baked in a pan large enough to feed a crowd, these brownies are just waiting to be topped with a scoop of ice cream and drizzled with cherry and/or chocolate sauce. Set out favourite sundae toppings, such as candies, coconut, freshly cut fruit and toasted nuts, for guests to sprinkle on their servings.
Crunchy and nutty, these sandwiches taste like indulgent ice cream truffles. If you can't have nuts, substitute with extra chocolate chips and toffee bits.
This twist on classic Italian tiramisu is the perfect potluck dessert. Luscious Layered White Chocolate and Raspberry Dessert sounds incredibly fancy, but you don't have to fuss with baking and you can make it well in advance. No one will be able to resist its layers of silky smooth white chocolate. To avoid soggy ladyfingers, dip the cookies for just half a second per side.?
Panettone, a tall and cylindrical sweet bread made from a buttery, egg-rich dough, is an Italian Christmas classic. While it's traditionally made with dried fruit, we've added indulgent chocolate and roasted hazelnuts for the most decadent dessert possible. Serve with espresso, and use any leftovers for French toast or bread pudding.
These cookies may look intricate, but they couldn't be simpler to make. To create the green centres, place a log of the mint dough over top of the chocolate dough, and roll up. So easy!
Chocolate chips update this classic. Beating the egg whites with a stand mixer gives great height to the cake. An electric hand mixer still gives a pillowy texture, but the cake will not be as high.
Choose fruit that's easy to hold as you dip slices into this luscious mixture. Apples, pears, strawberries and pineapple are ideal. Of course, the Mini Almond Cakes are perfect for this. Even though the menu is hands only, small skewers or toothpicks will make dipping easier and neater. The chocolate will stay soft enough for dipping for up to an hour; if it begins to set, microwave it at high for 15 to 20 seconds.
