5.0 out of 5 stars All it's promised to be..., September 5, 1998

By A Customer

Yes, this book is all the writer promises it to be. Simple-as-can-be recipes, that turn out to be the best cakes, cookies and desserts any chocolate lover could ask for. This book lack pictures, and isn't as fancy as other cook books, but the writer fills the pictures place with friendly helpful remarks and descriptive names (like "Down and Dirty Hot Fudge Sauce"). I have several chocolate cook books, but for a quick, choclate dessert or treat, I open up this book.

5.0 out of 5 stars So easy, so scrumptious, December 6, 2001

By	"cocofrique" (Brooklyn, NY United States) - See all my reviews

I remember working in a bookstore and trying to find a great, simple book that had a great, simple chocolate cake recipe in it. Well, I found it...and let me tell you that the double layer chocolate cake with chocolate frosting I made is still the best baked good I have made. It used so few ingredients, and people were raving forever. Buy it. If you like making chocolate desserts and like 'em easy and yummy, you can't go wrong.
