1 week agoHoliday cookies: Chocolate Peppermint Bars
Peppermint patties can be made at home using a cocoa shortbread base, minty powdered-sugar filling, and a bittersweet chocolate coating; they freeze well.
While everyone has their preferences for chocolate treats - from fudgy brownies to molten lava cake - Food Network star and Iron Chef Alex Guarnaschelli's favorite is beyond decadent, and we're here for it. In an interview posted on X (via Food Network), Guarnaschelli revealed that devil's food cake is her favorite chocolate dessert - one that she likes to enjoy "with chocolate frosting that tastes chocolatey beyond ... and a big mound of unsweetened whipped cream."
