Best Chocolate Layered Dessert
All about good ingredients and the main ingredient is CHOCOLATE! This dessert can be put together with mixes but if you really want to knock your & family’s socks off use homemade cake, pudding and toffee candy. And by all means whip the heavy cream. Coffee, Kahlua or Bailey’s is poured over the cake when layered and all this melds together into an amazing delectable dessert. A heavenly dessert idea is one of Melissa’s, my hairstylist, who not only does a fantastic hair color but has given me some wonderful food ideas … ethnic recipes usually, Turkey Alcatra, and then there are those like Jalapeño Poppers Dip. Melissa has a large extended family … some of her ideas have been passed along by other family members. I believe she said this was her aunt’s creation. Melissa is an experienced cook with a bit of perfectionism thrown in. Enjoy this perfect dessert for chocolate lovers. Thanks to Melissa & her aunt.
Choose one of your favorite Chocolate Cakes for baking or one of these, here. The whole cake need not be used for this dessert. For example, if you choose a 3 layered German Chocolate Cake you can save one layer for this dessert. I used one-half of Trisha’s Chocolate Pound Cake and recommend pound cake because of the texture. Cake with a lighter texture may not hold up to layering with high moisture ingredients.
