Chocolate Rice Krispie Squares
I do love to plant this chocolate bed of Rice Krispies with flowers! Sugarcraft shops, and some supermarkets, sell sugar or crystallised flowers; and the foil tray I use measures 32 x 20cm, but you co…
Chocolate
Everyone loves chocolate, and Nigella has so many chocolate recipes to satisfy your chocolate cravings from Old Fashion Chocolate Cake, to Chocolate Pudding and not to forget a variety of chocolate drinks, like Mexican Hot Chocolate and Salted Caramel Hot Chocolate. Then there's also your all time favourite, Instant Chocolate Mousse.
Salted Caramel Hot Chocolate
To make this hot chocolate you will need to have prepared my Salted Caramel Sauce.
Bacon Brownies
I don’t deny bacon in brownies sounds weird, but it does really work in a quite straightforward way. Even people who shrink from the very idea find the actual outcome all-too-compelling. I like to use…
Chestnut Chocolate Pots
I'm almost embarrassed by how easy these are. It's true that you do need a processor, though you could just chop well and whisk using a lot of elbow grease. As an experiment, I also tried the chestnut…
Chocolate Pistachio Fudge
I am willing to believe that a confectioner wouldn't call this proper fudge, but it tastes divine, and you won't need a sugar thermometer or have to test for frightening soft or hard ball stages. I li…
Chocolate Croissants
First, let me say that if I can do this, you can. As I have never tried to hide, I have no patience and even less dexterity. But this is child's play: indeed, you could consider getting children to ma…
Chocolate Pear Pudding
This is a cross between Pears Belle Helene and Eve's Pudding, but the only important thing to remember is that this is easy, quick, very comforting and seems to please absolutely everyone. It's not ha…
Chocolate Pudding
We're talking pure, all-encompassing bliss. When you eat this cooled, it is like chocolate satin cream and almost shocking in its pleasurable intensity. But I love it straight out of the pan, too, whe…
Flourless Chocolate Brownies With Hot Chocolate Sauce
However much people have eaten, there is always, I've noticed, room for a brownie. This is a different kind of a brownie, most definitely for party-pudding, melting, fudgy and damply rich. I compound…
Nutella Pancakes
Let joy be unconfined. This is one of the most irresistible puddings I think I have ever made, and I did it by no more than some fruitful scimmaging about my cupboards. I long for it almost constantly…
Caramelised Pineapple With Hot Chocolate Sauce
There's no other way to put this: these are fruit kebabs. I know how this sounds, but that's not how they taste. These skewer-threaded chunks of pineapple are sprinkled with sugar and blitzed on the b…
White Chocolate and Passionfruit Mousse
So much in cooking, as in the rest of life I suppose, is about contrast, about balance. Here the acerbic fragrance of the passionfruit undercuts the otherwise over-egged richness of the white chocolat…
Toblerone Fondue
Buying the fondue set was my first mistake... Please read the Additional Information section at the end of the recipe before proceeding.
Chocolate Chip Cookies
It seems strange that I’ve managed to write seven books without one plain chocolate chip cookie (by which I mean a plain cookie with chocolate chips in it). It’s true that the Totally Chocolate Chocol…
Just came out of the oven and these cookies are heaven..... Yum yumBy Mcr00baker
Chocolate Mint Cookies
This is my version of after dinner mints. These don't take long to make up and bake, and a plate of these minty breathed chocolate cookies, and some coffee, would make a delicious alternative to desse…
Totally Chocolate Chocolate Chip Cookies
Along with chocolate, there is much comfort to be gleaned from reading cookbooks. This recipe combines two loves by being chocolatey to the point of madness and having revealed itself to me after a co…
These are the best cookies I've ever eaten. It's impossible to only cook half the batch. In fact they're so good I just double up all the ingredients and freeze 12 and cook 12!By Cato80
Chocolate Meringue Truffle Cake
This is a favourite from a time, far in the distant past, when I went in for dinner parties! My late sister Thomasina brought it into my life about 40 years ago, and I still love it. Don't worry about…
Chocolate Cherry Cupcakes
I use a sour cherry preserve (or conserve) for this, but if you're going for jam (which is sweeter), reduce the sugar in the cake a little. And if you have any Kirsch about the place, then add a splas…
Chocolate Chestnut Refrigerator Cake
This is another of my maternal grandmother's recipes. I've changed it a bit, not least substituting dark rum for her juice and zest of an orange and a slug or two of Grand Marnier. It's not that I did…
Chocolate Cloud Cake
On days when I want the warmth of the hearth rather than the hurly burly of the city streets I stay in and read cookery books, and this recipe comes from just the sort of book that gives most succour,…
Chocolate Fruit Cake
This is the perfect cut-and-come again cake for any time of the year. It lasts for a fortnight, but has the squidgy fabulousness of something so much less serviceable-sounding. I know there are a lot…
Chocolate Lime Cheesecake
My inspiration here was a sweet — those chocolate limes I ate in my childhood. The base is rich and dark and perfectly counters the light, tender cream-cheese custard above it, itself kept all the mor…
Devil's Food Cake
Forget the name, this cake is heavenly. The crumb is tender, the filling and frosting luscious. When I made it one Friday, I expected my children, resident food critics much in the mould of the Grim e…
Flourless Chocolate Lime Cake With Margarita Cream
There is something about a flourless chocolate cake that makes it so divinely easy to eat. And, when you have friends round, it's good to know this will make everyone happy, gluten-free people include…
Quadruple Chocolate Loaf Cake
This cake is not named for the bypass you might feel you'd need after eating it, but in honour of the four choc-factors that comprise its glory: cocoa to make the cake; chocolate chips or morsels to f…
Chocolate Salame
I’ve encountered quite a few versions of chocolate salame in Italy — coming to the conclusion that it’s really an Italian version of our chocolate refrigerator cake — and although I am not normally a…
Girdlebuster Pie
I confess: it was the title that lured me. Tell me you don’t feel the same. I came across this in a recipe by Elinor Klivans, whom I often turn to for chocolatey solace, in her The Essential Chocolate…
I made this and I busted my girdle.By kimcooksforyou
Chocolate Guinness Cake
This cake is magnificent in its damp blackness. I can't say that you can absolutely taste the stout in it, but there is certainly a resonant, ferrous tang which I happen to love. The best way of descr…
Meringue Gelato Cake With Chocolate Sauce
I found this recipe for one of the world's easiest but most delicious desserts in a rather fabulous book, by chef and "culinary philosopher" Gioacchino Scognamiglio, called Il Chichibio: ovvero poesia…
Chocolate Peanut Butter Cheesecake
This is not for the faint-hearted. Unashamed indulgence, wallowingly so, is what this recipe is all about: think Reese's Peanut Butter cup in cheesecake form. For that reason, I don't bake this in a w…
Instant Chocolate Mousse
When you haven't got time for overnight setting in the fridge or you don't want to use raw eggs, this mousse is perfect. In fact, at all times, constraints or not, it is chocaliciously gorgeous.
Chocolate Fudge Cake
This is the sort of cake you'd want to eat the whole of when you'd been chucked. But even the sight of it, proud and tall and thickly iced on its stand, comforts.
I have made this cake several times, it is so easy. It always gets a wow. I use it to make chocolate birthday cakes.By Lovesey
Old Fashioned Chocolate Cake
This is, for me, the quintessential chocolate cake: melting, luscious and mood-enhancingly good. A food technologist would explain this in terms of "mouthfeel" but I don't know quite how that makes me…
I've made this cake many times and never a crumb has been left ! Everyone I made it for has said how lovely it is and is become my go to cake for all occasions ! Thank you Nigella for all your lovely recipes xBy suzy28
Chocolate Olive Oil Cake
Although I first came up with this recipe because I had someone coming for supper who — genuinely — couldn't eat wheat or dairy, it is so meltingly good, I now make it all the time for those whose lif…
Nutella Cake
Not only is this one of the easiest cakes to make, it happens — joyously — to be one of the most delicious. My household is totally addicted! Please don't feel obliged to rush out and buy a bottle of…
Chocolate Cheesecake
In the past, I've been apologetic about adulterating your basic cheescake, but I've moved on. This is exceptional: exactly the right balance between satiny sweetness and smooth tang. Regard the glaze…
Molten Chocolate Babycakes
These are the acceptable face of culinary cute: their intensity guarantees the triumph of chic over prettiness. And, what's more, they're easy to make. You can make the mixture up a few hours in advan…
Chocolate Sheet Cake
I love an American sheet cake — it’s a great way to feed a lot of people and, in my book, the more people get to eat cake, the better. I’ve simplified what is an already simple approach, so that both…
Chocolate Raspberry Pavlova
You just cannot beat a pav in my book, and I glory in particular this dark beauty. The crisp and chewy chocolate meringue base, rich in cocoa and beaded nuggets of chopped plain chocolate, provides a…
Chocolate Pudding for Christmas Pudding Haters
Christmas pudding isn’t for everyone and, even though I have faith in my pudding’s ability to convert, there’s no point nagging or, indeed, fighting against real, die-hard antipathies. Besides, I have…
Chocolate Banana Muffins
I tend to think of muffins as a grab-and-go refuelling treat or something you'd make for a weekend breakfast, but these look so darkly elegant, especially in their matching dark-brown, tulip-skirted p…
This recipe is wonderful! The muffins rose so high that they looked like I'd bought them from a coffee shop. They tasted so delicious and stayed moist for days and days. After reading other comments I'm definitely inspired to try adding chocolate chips and other embellishments to see what magic can be made. Another absolute staple in my repertoire of baking recipes, thank you once again for a faultless recipe Nigella.By JuliaR
Chocolate-Topped Banana Cake
I can never throw away old, overripe bananas, and although I have many recipes for using them up, I enjoy coming up with new ways, and really wanted, here, a proper cake — delicious though any banana…
Mexican Hot Chocolate
This is not the first of my Mexican hot chocolates, but I feel it will be my last. You can melt chunks of chocolate (as I have in previous versions) into hot milk, but I love the particular richness a…
Oh my goodness this is sooo yummy!!!By thedancingchef
Chocolate Peanut Butter Fudge Sundae
This is the ultimate ice cream sundae. Obviously, if you're not a peanut-eater, it won't be for you, but for everyone else it is the stuff of dreams. Last time I made this sauce, I nearly had to make…
