There is hardly anything more irresistible than a rich, creamy chocolate frosting, a steaming cup of chocolate, or a tall glass filled with ice cream and hot fudge sauce. These are the delights that font memories are made of and that are always recalled when the smell of chocolate is in the air. The chocolate makers at Ghirardelli share this passion for fine chocolate and have since 1852, when Domingo Ghirardelli began making it for the miners of the California Gold Rush. Now, the Ghirardelli Chocolate Company has created this cookbook to present its recipes for both timeless favorites and contemporary specialties that everyone who enjoys chocalate will savor.

With more than eighty easy-to-follow recipes for cakes and tortes, pies, cookies, sauces, breads and pastries, drinks, and other treats, this is a collection chocolate lovers will treasure. A helpful instructional chapter provides the basics on chocolate types, storage, and cooking with chocolate. In addition, memorabilia from Ghirardelli's archives and tantalizing color photos add to the experience.

These recipes are sure to create new and wonderful chocolate memories. If you're like most, you'll never lose your taste for chocolate, but you'll never enjoy it more than with The Ghirardelli Chocolate Cookbook
