Pros

The america's test kitchen everything chocolate recipe book is the perfect gift to give to your favorite chocoholic. Your basic fudge is in the book, but so are chocolate bark with pepitas and goji berries. The instructions in this book are probably c...  Read More

Cook's illustrated has a selection of recipes for almost any occasion. Each recipe includes an explanation of what worked and what didn't. There is also a breakdown of ingredient brands that worked better than others. What makes this stand out, beyond...  Read More

Chocolate is used to season and enhance meats and stews. The hazelnut chocolate biscotti are so good and easy. It's a food processor cake.

The distinct lack of savory dishes is the only criticism i have of this book so far. This just elevates them. There are some overlaps here and there, but for the most part the chapters are separated well.

The only criticism i have of this book is omitting such from a book with the word "everything" in the title.

Quality


This is the smoothest frozen chocolate custard you're ever going to eat, and the best part is, it's made without an ice cream machine.

This has pictures of the recipes, plus technique pictures like how to coat/dip chocolateso many great recipes and tips are in h...  Read More

Shipping


Book arrived very soon after ordering and in great condition!

Packaging/appearance


Perfect christmas gift for people you don't know well (new sister in laws!


All in all this hard cover is packed to the brim with full color photographs of each and every recipe with something sure to entice!


My favorite recipe here was the chocolate orange angel food cake, though i omitted the teaspoon of grand marnier in the recipe.

Competitiveness


They picked ghiradelli's chocolate for both bittersweet and chocolate chips--much more accessible than valrhona (my favorite) o...  Read More

I was skeptical of it being an authentic cookbook produced by atk because of other reviews, but after doing some research, i fo...  Read More
