quick death by chocolate
Several years ago, a recipe called "Death By Chocolate" appeared in Chef Marcel Desaulniers' Trellis Cookbook. His recipe became quite the rage, spawned some imitations, but it was very complicated and time consuming to prepare. I found this recipe for "Quick Death By Chocolate," clipped from The Dallas Morning News, tucked between the pages of a recipe book I bought at an estate sale. There is no date, but there are the words "Source: Philadelphia Inquirer" at the bottom. I thought it would be a good recipe to share, because no one wants a slow death, even if it is by chocolate.
