Chocolate

'Nine out of ten people like chocolate,' said John G Tullius, 'and the tenth person always lies.'
More than any other single ingredient chocolate inspires passionate devotion. It is a luxury everyone can afford and it appeals to every age.
Sian Cook covers the whole gamut of chocolate cookery from cakes and gateaux; through tarts, pies and cheesecakes; cold desserts; hot puddings; biscuits; cookies; to some unexpected treats including savoury recipes with chocolate.
There are dishes here to appeal to every taste and occasion: from completely over-the-top choices like Death by Chocolate and Tiramisu Cheesecake to relatively lighter dishes like Chocolate Sorbet or White Chocolate Bread and Butter Pudding.
