For The Love Of Chocolate

Everybody loves chocolate! Ok, that's no doubt an exaggeration but there are people like myself who crave a chocolate treat every now and then. Chocolate is even added to many different things, not just desserts. There are alcoholic beverages that contain chocolate and some even enjoy it with bacon! I personally wouldn't want to try it with bacon but to it each their own.

Of course, the many varieties of chocolate flavoring are achieved in fascinating ways. We know that cocoa pods from cacao trees are key, but other ingredients produce unique results that make chocolate all the more enjoyable! Adding fruits, milk, and sugar to the cocoa pods generally creates diverse tastes of chocolate that are quite popular. With that being said, in celebration of Bittersweet Chocolate Day, here are some desserts for you to try out!

There's hardly anyone who can say no to cake, especially when coffee is involved. Check out this recipe for a Bittersweet Chocolate Pound Cake that is sure to keep you coming back for seconds, maybe thirds, or fourths.

When it comes to chocolate, brownies are usually one of the desserts that come to mind. Since that's the case, surely you can't fault me for sharing this Bittersweet Chocolate Brownies recipe. To make it even better, they're brownies made from scratch! Who wouldn't want to try that?

Here's a little something to shake things up. All the way from the home-baking of Wisconsin comes this Bittersweet Chocolate Tart recipe. I have to admit that just by the looks of this one it may become my new obsession.

This particular recipe might be the easiest out of them all. Even though the process is a bit lengthy, only four ingredients are required to make it! With something so easy, I definitely want to try it. Take a look at Charles Chocolates Bittersweet Chocolate Truffles to decide for yourself.
