Chocolate Chipped

Taking A Breather...

I've decided to take a breather with Chocolate Chipped. As much as I enjoy it, I just have a lot of stuff going on right now family-wise (my mom having some health issues) and work-wise (business is busy!) that makes it hard to get the daily chocolate photos up, so I'm gonna wait til things settle down and then maybe start it up again.

In my absence, please enjoy the archives of chocolate photos and recipes!

I hope you have wonderful holiday season--maybe this is the year that you get the chocolate fountain for Christmas!

Chocolate Covered Honeycomb? Nigella's Ice Cream Cake

I have never seen a recipe ingredient of "Chocolate Covered Honeycomb", but leave it to Nigella--this ice cream cake has it in there!

Honey roasted peanuts, vanilla ice cream, chocolate "biscuits" (cookies), chocolate covered honeycombs, chocolate and peanut butter swirled morsels, butterscotch sauce--spectacular!

It's getting cold outside, huh?

About time to brew up a mug of mexican hot chocolate, and then take things up a notch by adding in some Mexican Hot Chocolate cookies.

These cookies just look so warm and comforting (and chocolatey!)

I'll take a dozen, please!

Aren't these drool-worthy?

This smore actually has white chocolate instead of the regular chocolate, and check out that miraculous striped marshmallow!

This totally takes smores up a few dozen notches...Yum!

Kids Will Love These: Nigella's Rocky Road Crunch Bars

And to be honest, I can't imagine an adult being unhappy with one of these Rocky Road Crunch Bars either.

First off these look sooo easy--they're easier than rice crispy treats, I think. And they look more upscale--you could easily serve these for dessert to guests or give these bars as a gift.

No baking at all!

The Little Black Dress: Chocolate Malted Cupcakes

I am a sucker for chocolate malt anything--and in cupcake form these babies are particularly attractive!

Yes, they are worthy of any dinner part dessert, pizza or game night dessert, child or adult birthday party--they are perfect for any situation.

These chocolate malted cupcakes are the little black dress of cupcakes!

Chewy, Fudgy, Melty: Nigella's Triple Chocolate Brownies

She is half master chef, half irresistible sales person.

I'm telling you Nigella could sell ice to an Eskimo--she has got me drooling over these brownies in the first 30 seconds!

I do like the idea of taking brownies up a few notches--not that plain brownies can ever be bad, but I LOVE when there are chips in the brownies. These have chocolate and white chocolate chips in there, so it has extra complexity.

The Search Is Finally Over: Chocolate Drizzled Caramel Apples

You have no idea how many hours I've spent looking for a delish photo and recipe for a chocolate covered caramel apple (and just in time for Halloween!)

This one is from Rachel at Coconut & Lime--the photos are stunning!

And notice that there is no pool of caramel at the bottom--there is apparently a trick to that that I have never been able to master.

Not that extra caramel is a bad thing--it tastes good, but I have to admit that this caramel apple looks neat and tidy and not messy at all.

I need to try this recipe!

They look so moist, and I can see the berries and the white chocolate chips--oh so good!

I Think I've Died And Gone To Heaven: Chocolate Cake Batter Waffles

I LOVE waffles, but it is true that it's not that easy to get the batter right.

Last time I was at my sister's house we used a waffle batter mix, and it turned out icky and flavorless--not what we were going for!

So when I saw this ingenius devil's food cake batter waffle idea, I was jumping up and down for joy!

The whipped cream and strawberries on top MAKE this dish, don't they?
