Cook the Book: The Essence of Chocolate

A chocolate flourless cake with a port reduction and chili powder, at the now-gone Table of Contents in St Paul, MN. The first "fancy" chocolate dessert I ever had, and by far the best, if only because it blew my 17-year-old mind.

I know the groom (and have been to that Taco Bell). Good guy, and never one to do what's expected.

You really can't beat brownies, and in fact, this is my all-time favorite brownie recipe (with some extra bittersweet chocolate chunks thrown in).

The Best Pies in America: The Serious Eats Pie Honor Roll

Crane's Pie Pantry in Fennville, Michigan. Amazing, amazing apple and peach pies. And the restaurant is worth stopping by if you happen to be in that neck of the woods.

The Best Pies in America: The Serious Eats Pie Honor Roll

Add another vote for Petsi Pies. The owner, Renee, is one of the kindest individuals you will ever meet, all business aside. She just happens to make some of the finest baked goods in the area, as well. It is one of my personal joys to go to this shop and see what they have that day. My favorites are the peach blackberry pie in the summer, and the apple, pear, cranberry pie with walnut streusel topping in the fall. The menu changes with the season - I highly recommend visiting!

A chocolate mousse with shaved chocolate swirls in a small Parisian brasserie. The mousse was the most delicious thing I've ever tasted, and that was definitely helped by the fact that it was my first night in Paris.

I went to the Borders book store and wrote down this recipe for 'That Chocolate Cake' from the book and its the most simple yet decadent cake me and my family ever had. I made it for my father's 75th birthday!!!

I would really really love to have a copy of the 'Essence of Chocolate' book as I need not write down recipes sitting in the book store anymore :)

When I was in high school my Mom worked in the cafeteria and her best freind was the baker. She made the BEST brownies I've ever had. My Mom got the recipe and I still make them for my son today. They're still the best brownies I've ever had.

Hot chocolate in Italy was the greatest chocolate experience of my life, followed by a basic, fudgy chocolate gateaux with fresh cream poured over it.

Some really decadent brownies I received for Christmas one year that my sister ordered somewhere online. I can't remember right off the top of my head where they came from, but chocolate lover that I am, I wouldn't spend that much on me myself!

standing in the kitchen, age 8, licking brownie batter off my fingers from the ancient metal saucepan my mom always mixed them in. she had just showed me how to make them, and i was anticipating 30 minutes of cooking time agony before i could taste them.

it was almost as good as the finished brownies- dark, rich, gooey and addictive. that was over 20 years ago, and i've been making them ever since.

It was a wonderful chocolate fondue - - I got to dip all kinds of goodness in that gooey mess, and loved every bite.

I have celiac disease and must follow a strict gluten free diet. When dining out desserts are the biggest challenge and often means having coffee and dessert at home. I recently went to a restaurant for a family celebration and much to my surprise the dessert menu listed a flourless chocolate brownie AND the menu clearly declared the gluten free status of each component! I checked with the wait staff and after a few questions, I was satisfied that they followed all the "rules'.

When the dessert arrived, I was more than pleasantly surprised. The warm rich chocolate brownie was topped with freshly whipped cream and a warm raspberry reduction syrup; with the first bite I was "lost". It was a soul satisfying indulgence.
