This chocolate cake is quite the mouthful and has a tale to tell – told by Julia Child, no less. Teaching Kitchen Chef Matthew Stansbury prepared this cake for Opera Louisiane’s comic one-act opera Bon Appetit – a lively, light opera that chronicles an episode of the Julia Child show and the makings of this...

Salted Dark Chocolate Sauce
This simple chocolate sauce comes together quickly and is a must for so many desserts! We doubled up on the chocolate by adding in both chocolate chips and our Pure Chocolate Extract. This sauce is just the thing for dunking our Pecan Shortbread Cookies. It’s delicious on a big bowl of ice cream. It’s lovely...
World Peace Cookies
In our adaptation of Dorie Greenspan’s beloved cookies, we used a slightly heavier hand on the salt. Dorie tells a wonderful story of her neighbor who after eating one of the chocolate shortbread cookies surmised that if everyone had one of these treats, there would be world peace. We agree. These are amazingly delicious cookies....
Chocolate Hazelnut Pots de Creme
Rich, creamy and chock full of chocolate, these sweet pots de crème are what dreamy date nights are made of. The Vanilla and Hazelnut extracts play perfectly with the dark chocolate. Tuck them in the fridge the day before and resist the urge to sneak a taste before the dessert course.
Mocha Latte Crinkle Cookies
Chocolate and coffee…these are two of our favorite things. We’ve combined them in these fun and delicious cookies. We love the the double delivery of espresso from our Espresso Salt and Espresso Extract. Adding coffee flavors to chocolate desserts adds depth and umph to the chocolate.
Aztec Chocolate Mousse
These little cups of chocolatey heaven will make you the talk of the dinner party – they’re that good! Make these and pop them in the fridge the day before, and you’ll have a head start on the finishing touch to dinner. The Vietnamese Cinnamon and Cayenne pepper make for a surprising pop to this rich, sweet, decadent dessert.
Dark Chocolate Balsamic Martini
Chocolate Martini. Dessert or cocktail? Both! We love this fun drink, and we especially love how our Dark Chocolate Balsamic Vinegar adds just the perfect amount of sweet tang. We didn’t skimp on the chocolate – we added it to the rim with our Cacao Sugar. Sweet with every sip.
SPICED CHOCOLATE POTS DE CREME

Fact is, you can use ramekins, espresso cups or even shot glasses for this chocolate goodness. We employ our signature one-two punch using two extracts in this recipe. The...
