Chocolate Espresso Cookies

Unhinge jaw. Inhale cookie stack.

I am a coffee girl.

In the morning, it usually takes at least two cups of coffee before my eyes can focus and I can form complete sentences. I also love chocolate — so, coffee and chocolate together? Pure heaven. These shiny, chewy chocolate cookies pack a huge chocolate whollop, with a sweet kick of coffee. Getting the right grind on your beans will be the key to your success — the finer the grind, the better.

The Famous Chocolate Cake

The Famous Chocolate Cake!

There's no denying it: I like cake. This cake — The Famous Chocolate Cake —  is my favourite, and the most-requested cake choice by my family at get-togethers, birthday parties and barbecues.

Jason and Pam serve the cake with ice cream; Robin waits in anticipation for his piece.

It has a rich, deep chocolate flavour and a dense and moist crumb. It is easily customizable with different fillings such as custard or raspberry jam. It is simple to make and if you follow the instructions, it will never fail you. Enjoy it, as we did, with a glass of Cabernet Sauvignon or an ice-cold glass of milk.
