Farm Journal's Choice Chocolate Recipes by Elise W. Manning,Patricia A. Ward Doubleday 1978
Title: Farm Journal's Choice Chocolate Recipes
Author: Elise W. Manning,Patricia A. Ward
Format: Hardcover
Publisher: Doubleday 1978
ISBN 10: 0385147775
Size: 5.75 X 8.5 * 224 pages
Synopsis: From the Jacket: How old were you when you first discovered the unforgettably delicious taste of chocolate? Probably not more than three or four. And, tell the truth, hasn't chocolate had a hold on your affections ever since?
Like poetry and flowers, chocolate speaks the language of love-with echoes that are heard for a lifetime. The traditional box of chocolates presented by a suitor to his love just paves the way for the chocolate cakes she will someday bake for his birthdays, and the chocolate puddings, pies and cookies that will grace their family table through the years.
In her visits to farm families across America, Farm Journal food editor Elise Manning was always impressed with the number of times these families served chocolate desserts. Finally, she asked her readers to share their favorite chocolate recipes and they responded by submitting more than 10,000 recipes they said rated tops with their families.
Months of screening and testing in the Farm Journal Test Kitchens resulted in this collection of 282 sure-to-please recipes for chocolate lovers everywhere.
Want to dazzle your guests? Try Chocolate Angel Pie, an irresistible three-layer confection nested in a meringue shell. A South Dakota woman wrote, "I make several of these pies at once and freeze them for a month-providing no one knows they're there."
Is chocolate cake your weakness? Get set for a taste treat with Chocolate Velvet Cake. The farm woman who submitted this recipe said, "A birthday party wasn't complete if we didn't have this cake all aglow with candles." Her children are grown now, but they still expect to have "Mom's chocolate cake" when they come home for special family occasions.
Recipes in this book run the gamut of chocolate delights from cakes and pies to cookies, some unusual brownies, assorted fudge and other candies and a variety of unique desserts. Bake Hot Cocoa Souffle or freeze Banana Split Dessert or stir up Easy Chocolate Fondue, which is so good with fruits or cake.
No chocolate specialist is without a set of favorite sauces to top ice cream, puddings or plain cakes. You'll find several here to add to your own list. Peanut Butter Fudge Sauce and Honey Chocolate Sauce will probably find a permanent home in your refrigerator.
So here, for your cooking enjoyment and the pleasure of everyone you cook for, is Farm Journal's collection of the country's top chocolate treats. These recipes will serve you well when company's coming, as well as turn many a dull day into something worth remembering.
