The Ghirardelli Chocolate Cookbook: Recipes and History from America’s Premier Chocolate Maker

Ghirardelli has long been the standard-bearer for great chocolate. Domingo Ghirardelli first began making chocolate drinks for miners during the Gold Rush. In the more than 150 years since, the chocolatiers who have carried on the company’s grand tradition have made Ghirardelli the leading premium manufacturer in the country. Growing consumer demand for higher-quality cacao and specialised chocolate products prompted the experts at Ghirardelli to revise this collection of classic cookies, bars, cakes, and drinks. The recipes range from simple sweets to showstopping desserts, while a special section on hosting a chocolate party comes just in time for holiday baking and entertaining. Selected recipes include: hot chocolate souffle, chocolate raspberry tartlets, triple chocolate truffle cake, chocolate chip cheesecake, dark chocolate cupcakes, and chocolate martini.
