53 Chocolate Dessert Recipes To Satisfy Any Sweet Tooth

Some say, ‘less is more’ but when it comes to chocolate we believe the opposite! Dark chocolate, milk chocolate, white chocolate, blonde chocolate and cocoa powder—we love using all sorts of chocolate for baking. Once you learn a few basics (like how to melt chocolate so that it doesn’t seize up and how to temper chocolate so that it keeps its glossy shine) you’ll be making everything from ganache for truffles and decadent cakes to the fudgiest pies and cookies—in no time. Wondering where to start? This cake fits our ‘more is more’ philosophy with a chocolate filling, frosting and candy bar topping. Better yet, it comes together in one bowl which makes cleanup a breeze. That means you'll be indulging in a slice of chocolatey goodness just a little bit sooner. Sweet!

This flourless chocolate cake is the very definition of the word "decadent." You'll use an entire bag of dark chocolate chips to make the dessert's dreamy filling, which is equal parts fudgy and rich. Don’t forget to top your baked cake with freshly made whipped cream and a dusting of cocoa powder before serving — doing so takes it to the next level!

The best chocolate mousse must be perfect. It should taste rich, indulgent and not too sweet, with a texture that is both light-and-airy and silky-and-smooth. After many attempts we nailed it and made a dessert that not only exceeded our standards, it's also quite easy to pull off. Close your eyes and take a bite — you'll be transported to a 4-star French restaurant.

Lemon and chocolate might sound like an unusual pairing on paper, but once you take a bite of these tricolored bars, you'll forever be a fan of the zesty flavor combination. A generous sparkle of flaky sea salt on top also makes the perfect garnish to offset this dessert’s silky-smooth chocolate ganache.
