Post subject: | Favorite CI Chocolate Dessert Recipe? |
Hi All, I have about a decades worth of Cooks Illustrated mags, and I remember on the old BB people raving about this or that chocolate dessert but I haven't ever made any of them. I'm just not a huge dessert maker, normally, because there are only two of us. We are having a few extra folks for Thanksgiving this year and I want to make an extra dessert, something sinfully chocolate, on top of the two pies I will make. Does anyone have anything to recommend for me? Thanks, --Lisa |

I'd say the sour cream chocolate bundt cake or the chocolate caramel walnut tart. Amy |

Thank you, Amy. I know that I should invest in an index... but I have the original mags and the hardcovers are too expensive for me to justify. |

Actually Lisa, I don't have an index. I simply went on their website and searched for the recipes. While you cannot view the recipe without an account (which I no longer have), you can see the date of the recipe. Amy |

Brilliant! That would have never occurred to me. Thanks. <embarrassed> |

I love love the sour cream bundt and to make it extra special and decadent I bake in 9 inch layers (suggested on TOBB) and frost with a ganache or CI's milk chocolate frosting (but use semi sweet chocolate) or even the old fashioned chocolate cake frosting. And not a CI recipe, but the chocolate stout cake on the epicurious site is also pretty darn great. But huge. |

I've made the chocolate sour cream cake as rounds as well. And, my favorite filling is Pierre Herme's chocolate caramel ganache. God, now I'm craving it... Amy |
