Reviews for Chocolate Desserts by Pierre Herme

• Chocolate.Book rating: 5

  I was very excited about receiving this book in the mail, and really, it has only made me more and more excited about chocolate since I obtained it about a year ago (that has to imply something, anyone who loves chocolate is a chocoholic.)
  
  The recipes are easy to follow, I have managed to challenge myself with this book and I have enjoyed everything I have made from the black forest cake (which will revolutionize your definition of the cake) to the chocolate mousse (kick-ass).
  
  The chocolate mousse I make all the time & I like to think of it as mostly fat-free. It has no cream and almost no sugar; it has 4 ingredients and will take you about 10 mins to make with not a lot of cleaning up to do afterwards. The 4 ingredients: eggs (yolks and whites; and not many of), a small amount of sugar, 1/3rd cup of milk and dark chocolate. He suggests adding cardamom oil for a variation, heaven. 1 hour minimum cooling time (not all day!!!!)
  One last note on this mousse: Pierre Herme has shown that when used properly, ingredients go a long way, this chocolate mousse makes others taste tacky.
  
  The Black forest cake: time consuming and totally worth it. It includes: chocolate cream, macerated cherries, kirsch cream, 3 layers of chocolate cake soaked with kirsch syrup- finally the whole thing can be covered in whipped cream and topped with chocolate curls. The cross-section looks incredible. I will never buy another black forest cake again.
  
  If you want a chocolate book, this is it- you wont need another one. by Alexandra Lucas
