“There’s no shortage of chocolate cookbooks out there, but this volume stands out for its user-friendly nature and the sheer deliciousness of its recipes.” —Publishers Weekly

Sexy, rich, and good in bed—chocolate is the ultimate indulgence, and Luscious Chocolate Desserts is the ultimate chocolate cookbook. Lori Longbotham, bestselling author of Luscious Lemon Desserts, delivers more than 70 of the best recipes for tantalizing cakes, sumptuous tarts and pies, velvety puddings and souffles, plus melt-in-your-mouth cookies, ice cream, and candy.

Recipes run from simple-to-prepare chocolate pound cake and chocolate mousse pie to more elaborate desserts such as chocolate profiteroles with chocolate ice cream and chocolate sauce and the decadent mocha tiramisu. For those who don’t know their cocoa from their cacao, this compendium for chocoholics also educates readers from bean to bar, including how to choose from the many forms of chocolate available in today’s markets, plus the basics of storing, chopping, melting, and—the best part—tasting them. It’s pure satisfaction for chocolate lovers everywhere.

“I practically fell face first, mouth wide open into the gorgeous color photographs by William Meppem . . . Longbotham also provides a short discourse on the history of chocolate, a glossary, a section on chocolate’s connection to good health and a primer on tasting chocolate.” —San Diego Union Tribune

Title: Already enjoying it!
Review: The Chocolate Chocolate Chip cookies were deep, dark, and to die for. Discovered Cocoa Nibs (had never heard of them) after reading all about 'em! Given the size of the cookbook (smaller that I'm used to) the font and text size, formatting is clear and makes it easy to follow the directions. Lovely photography, too. As well as fascinating info and stats on chocolate. Have at least 16 other recipes bookmarked for baking one of these days. Can't wait! Bring on the holidays!

Review: I just received this book and have yet to try any of the recipes, but this book is very well set out with lovely photos that make you want to break out your mixer and start baking! I've ordered some baking equipments I don't have just so I can make some other recipes in the book.Beautiful book

Title: fancy and friendly
Review: When you say don't judge a book by the cover or the many pages inside it's a lie especially when it applies to a cookbook full of receipe for chocolates deserts! I am glad I bought it, I am planning on learning to make chocolate souffles and the many other yummy looking chocolate desserts. I highly recommend it. It's a girly cookbook so buy it for your girlfriends and wives!

Title: Not many pictures
Review: The recipes SOUND great, and I will definitely try some of them, but I'm in the dark about what they look like -- there aren't many photos in the book and the descriptions aren't great, so I won't know what I'm going to get until it comes out of the oven.

Title: It screams eBook in the worst possible way and I hate it
Review: Somebody wrote this is Word 2010 or something and printed it directly to a PDF. It screams eBook in the worst possible way and I hate it. I really hate it.

Review: Cute little book ! Well illustrated with recipes that do not seem too difficult to make. None of the recipes seem too elaborate or complicated.I bought the Luscious Creamy Desserts as well as the Lemon Desserts from the same author. A nice gift to offer ..... or to keep !I am satisfied with my purchase.
