Fresh & Tasty: Chocolate

 

By Bonnie Stern


For many people, chocolate and the holidays go hand in hand. Rich, luscious and slightly sinful, chocolate has it all wrapped up.


 

Triple Chocolate Angel Food Cake

Although this cake is moist enough that it doesn’t need the sauce, gilding the lily is what the holidays are all about.

   

   

   

   

   

   

   

Brown Sugar Chocolate Shortbread Dipped in White Chocolate

These black-and-white cookies look elegant and taste delicious. You can dip them into dark or milk chocolate, whichever you prefer.

   

   

   

   

   

   

   

Toasted Almond Chocolate Palettes

These beautiful little homemade chocolates are the perfect treat to serve after dinner or to give away as holiday gifts. They look especially festive sprinkled with gold flakes.
