My rating: 3 of 5 stars

I love chocolate. Deep, dark and delectable, it’s one sweet that I adore. I was so excited to receive this book and dive into the deliciousness it held. Unfortunately, I was less than amazed. I decided to cook a classic–Chocolate Chip Cookies. Easy to nail, I figured they had to be amazing. I’ve made chocolate chip cookies from a multitude of recipes and rarely had a bad one, so I was very excited to make these. I used quality chocolate and cocoa and…well, they were not very good. I have four kids who adore chocolate chip cookies, and probably half the batch went into the garbage as they were less than impressed as well.

There are better offerings in this book such as Chocolate Truffles, Chocolate Truffle Squares and more. I don’t not recommend this book, but rather recommend it with the caveat that you might should try a chocolate chip cookie recipe from elsewhere.

If you have a gluten intolerance, there are many gluten free offerings in this book.

I received a copy of this book from Murdoch Books through IPG for my honest review. All thoughts and opinions are my own.
