Choc it up!

This book has a fun, breezy style. Plus, lots of easy to follow recipes that do not rely on exotic ingredients that have to be flown in from foreign countries to make. And it is about chocolate. How perfect is that? If you like this book, you might also enjoy this one: Chocolate Therapy: Dare to Discover Your Inner Center!

Clever writing, most excellent subject matter

I found this book at our local public library, and after a quick peruse, found that I must own it. I enjoyed the author's humorous, clever writing and tasty recipes. (Didn't hurt that it was about one of my favorite subjects!) I haven't enjoyed a chocolate book this much since Sandra Boynton's "Chocolate: The Consuming Passion."

A dangerously sweet book!

I am also an UC (Unrepentant Chocoholic) and I must say the authors know their audience very well. They hit all the right notes and push all the right buttons with the fiendishly rich and sinfully sweet recipes they present here. Like many of us, I'm trying to watch my weight, but I also feel like I want to try all of the recipes asoon as possible. The one's I've already tried were all splendid! So to the authors: Shame on you! And....keep up the good work! ;)

Kudos to the Authors from an unrepentant chocoholic

This book was a gift from a friend of mine -- one who knows me well and knows that just looking at the recipes would give me pleasure. I enjoy reading this book as much as I enjoy the eating the treats created by the recipes. I'm not much of a chef, and I think these recipes are understandable and easy to follow -- and the "Mom Tips" are handy. I highly recommend this book and will give it as gifts to my friends in the future. It is a must have for any chocolate lover.

Chocolate On the Brain

This is a GREAT book for chocaholics. Because every recipe deals with chocolate, it is easy to page through and find a recipe that matches the ingredients you have on hand whenever you need a fix. Most of the recipes are quick and very easy, and the authors offer helpful tips along the way. An excellent gift for anyone who likes chocolate.
