Best Ever Yummy Carrot Cake!!!! (With Cream Cheese Frosting)

Thu, 01 Nov 2007 17:03:15 -0400

This is the best, most moist & flavorful carrot cake that I have ever eaten and it is definitely something everyone who tries it will remember! As with most of my recipes, they are bits & pieces from different places all put together to achieve (in my opinion) the perfect recipe. I make this as a 12", 4-layer cake to sell at my restaurant. You can easily half this recipe to make an 8", 3-layer cake or a regular 9 x 13 pan. -- posted by KirstenSU04

In the cookie aisle, I often see the packages of Le Petit Beurre butter _biscuits_ and wonder whether they are really cookies or biscuits. I still don't know but they make a great dessert that's not really a cake or candy or cookie or fudge exactly, something in between. Cooking time = chill time -- posted by SusieQusie

" I created this elegant dessert for an Italian wedding I catered in 94 and it has a flavor twist.

Fudge Pie With Peanut Butter Sauce for Valentine's Day

Sun, 13 Jan 2008 00:41:16 -0500

Great anytime but for Valentine's Day present this luscious dessert with words of love handwritten across the plate. To allow plenty of room for your message, choose an oversized dinner plate. Spoon remaining 2 oz. melted chocolate into a small Zip-Lock bag or a small squeeze bottle with a narrow tip. (If using a plastic bag, snip a tiny hole in bottom corner, using scissors). Write "Happy Valentine's Day" in chocolate around the rim of a large plate. Then serve placing 1 slice on prepared plate. Top with Peanut Butter Sauce, whipped topping and additional chopped peanuts. Serve with a kiss! -- posted by Chef #723491

Chocolate Cayenne Truffles

Tue, 19 Feb 2008 03:29:17 -0500

This is a recipe I found on the Internet in several different places. I love it, though I've found that some people find it too intense to enjoy. If you know someone who likes spicy food, this might not be a bad Valentine's Day treat. It starts off cool and sweet, but is spicy when it melts on your tongue. The ginger on the outside helps give a little bite at the start. -- posted by korvus

Penny Pincher's Elegant Chocolate Dipped Strawberries

I have alway felt that chocolate-covered strawberries are a classic signature of romance, especially the part where you feed it to your sweetie! I usually use very special, often expensive chocolate to make mine, but this time I had to settle for classic semi-sweet chocolate chips. I knew when I got, "Oh, what kind of chocolate is *this*?" from my BF, I knew the recipe was 'zaar worthy! -- posted by Courtney Elizabeth

Triple Chocolate Petit Fours

Thu, 21 Feb 2008 01:07:07 -0500

The recipe as written uses chocolate sponge cake, simple syrup, chocolate frosting, and chocolate glaze. The chocolate sponge cake recipe that I used was found here on Recipezaar from Derf and I added some additional guidelines and tips. The chocolate glaze recipe is from AllRecipes.com. Feel free to use the basic outline of the recipe to create your own petit fours. Just use the basic components (sponge cake aka genoise, simple syrup, some sort of filling like frosting/jelly/buttercream/fruit curd, and glaze such as marzipan/fondant/ganache) and follow the assembly instructions given. You can add flavored liquor, coffee, etc to the simple syrup recipe (equal parts sugar and water) to give a little extra flavor. -- posted by Eat Your Vegetables!

Valentine's Day Molten Chocolate Cakes for Two (Or More!)

Sat, 23 Feb 2008 00:35:39 -0500

OMG! These are to die for!!! Got these out of our local paper for the holiday and just made them. I used Giardelli's bittersweet choc. chips, Sucanat and whole wheat flour, but you may use whatever you have. I doubled the recipe and got 5 custard cup sized cakes. If you want more choc. lava, bake them for 10 minutes, less, 11-12. This is so quick and easy and it looks like you slaved in the kitchen, yet takes a total of 20 minutes from beginning to end! Wish I would have seen the recipe b4 my anniversary (which happens to be the 15th). -- posted by WI Cheesehead

It is also delicious with Lindemans Framboise Lambic. Modified slightly from Gourmet; I had everything in my fridge/freezer already!

Menage a Trois (The Chocolate Chocolate Chocolate Cookie)

Mon, 16 Feb 2009 01:18:44 -0500

Take a bite of this cookie and go to Chocoholic Heaven. They will melt in your mouth in ways that you never thought possible for a cookie. Be aware that they only keep for a few days, and that they tend to be very fragile. Also, they can be somewhat finnicky to make; do not be dismayed if they do not come out right the first time. Good quality chocolate, proper oven technique, and parchment paper are all very important. And yes, the flour: chocolate ratio is correct - that is what gives it its texture (and makes it so expensive). From "A Field Guide to Chocolate Chip Cookies" by Dede Wilson. -- posted by Oenophilly

Easiest Ever Chocolate Fudge Cake

Tue, 10 Mar 2009 14:53:27 -0400

It is the magazine I found this recipe in calling this 'the easiest', not me. That said, it does look pretty easy. I found it in a booklet produced by the British cooking magazine Olive. So, the measurements are in grams rather than ounces but don't let that scare you and remember you can use the conversion chart here to instantly convert the recipe. -- posted by Sarah_Jayne

Chocolate Cheesecakes for Two

Fri, 20 Mar 2009 02:12:23 -0400

This is a Paula Deen recipe she came up with for a Valentine's meal, and it makes two 4" cheesecakes. I found it after Valentine's Day this year, but I'm going to make it on my husband's birthday -- it looks like it will make a terrific dessert for special occasions. Note: There is a 4-hour chilling time required in addition to the cooking time. -- posted by TasteTester

Rocky Road Fudge (No Bake)

Tue, 12 May 2009 01:08:26 -0400

This recipe is similar to rocky road treats because of its crunch and crunch! There are many things you can add to make it crunchier as well! This recipe is open for experimentation! And the best part is, for those of you (like me) without an oven, this doesn't require one! LOL -- posted by Annicka Shadowing

Fudgy Chocolate Cupcakes (Or Cake)

Thu, 04 Jun 2009 10:11:39 -0400

There was an o.k. recipe here on Zaar that I have worked on and changed to make these truly amazingly rich and chocolatey cupcakes. Don't be scared of the tiny bit of coffee it only deepens the flavor of the chocolate. These don't require any frosting but the kids love it with frosting and some colored sprinkles so that's what I typically do. I like to use my lazy version of Recipe #19353 (a little bit of this, a little bit of that) and they always look and taste wonderful. As an added bonus this has no shortening, butter, or margarine (all those bad trans-fats) but amazingly enough they still taste fattening. -- posted by scancan

Sourdough Chocolate Malt Dessert Waffles

Thu, 18 Jun 2009 14:15:52 -0400

Absolutely decadent dessert waffles! They're so light and crispy it's hard to believe they are made with sourdough and whole wheat flour. Can be made in a Belgian or traditional waffle iron. Great use of extra sourdough starter! Recipe from King Arthur flour. Time indicated includes proofing time! -- posted by Galley Wench

Silly Easy Chocolate Creme De Menthe Pudding

Thu, 03 Sep 2009 12:05:38 -0400

I was making up a box of sugar free pudding and spotted the bottle of creme de menthe on the shelf. It wouldn't let me ignore it and I thought 'hmm, I wonder' and added a bit into the mix. It worked and turned normal chocolate pudding into something lush tasting. I could see it being the base of easy 'grown up' parfaits and that sort of thing too. -- posted by Sarah_Jayne

V's Chocolate Coma Cake (Triple Layer)

Fri, 02 Oct 2009 16:13:51 -0400

I wanted to make my DH a special chocolate cake for his birthday this year and a box cake mix wasn't gonna due. Although I often kick-up cake mixes I decided to create a cake just for him and go the extra mile. WARNING: This cake is not for dieters, It is packed with lots of love and will be my special occasion cake from now on. My boys loved it so much, they are already requesting it for their birthdays! :) Another thumbs up by the family! -- posted by Vseward (Chef~V)

This fine chocolate recipe comes from Epicurious. For pure chocolate bliss be sure to use best quality bittersweet and fresh nuts. It's worth it! The cook time given is actually chill time. -- posted by Annacia
