Description: CHOCOLATE HEAVEN

Chocolate is the stuff of which delectable dreams are made. In _365 Great Chocolate Desserts_ you'll find a year's worth of easily accessible chocolate fantasies specially selected for the busy home cook.

The emphasis here is not just on taste but on simplicity and ease: no fancy ingredients are called for; fast-melting chocolate chips are used where possible; and many recipes have been "customized" to save time and minimize cleanup.

Even the busiest cook can pose as a champion baker with recipes from "Quick Fixes With Mixes," an entire chapter devoted to doctoring up packaged mixes so they look and taste like scratch recipes. For the weekend baker, "Chocolate Entertains" offers more challenging creations for special occasions, with spectacular desserts such as Triple Chocolate Napoleons with Raspberry Sauce, Flourless Bittersweet Apricot Walnut Torte, and Chocolate Bourbon Cake.

"Chocolate on a Pedestal" presents more chocolate cakes than you've ever dreamed of, from the classic Blackout Cake to the homey Three Layer Cocoa Cake. You'll also find all sorts of recipes for ice cream cakes and other frozen desserts, cookies, brownies, candies, pies, tarts, sauces, drinks, puddings, custards, coffeecakes, plus a chapter of microwave recipes. There's even a chapter devoted to chocolate cheesecakes, and another just for the kids.

If.you and your family love chocolate, _365 Great Chocolate Desserts_ is sure to become one of your all-time favorite cookbooks.
