Chocolate Elegance!
This chocolate cookbook promises beautiful chocolate creations that
actually come out looking like the photos---even if you're an amateur
like me! Highly recommended~ I have to get his other cookbooks next!
Extravagant.
I had requested Death by Chocolate for mothers day and was surprised to also receive I'm Dreaming of a Chocolate Christmas. I'm finding I use Chocolate Christmas even more then the requested book.
Many of the recipes are very straight forward. I never have to hunt down an out of the ordinary ingredient. The results are always fantastic. I'm finding I make these when I'm truly trying to impress. The end results are always decedent, and extravagant. Great way to knock peoples socks off.
The recipes also seem to allow for creativity to give it your own flair.
I highly recommend I'm Dreaming of a Chocolate Christmas.
