The entry period for the Scharffen Berger Chocoholic Overdose giveaway is now over. Thanks to all for sharing your favorite chocolate desserts! Check back in a bit to find out who’s getting away with the haul…
The giveaways just keep getting better and better, don’t they?
This one needs no introduction so we’re just going to dive into the details of what’s included in the Scharffen Berger Chocoholic’s Overdose…
Starting from the top:
- Chocolate Tasting Squares Box ~ 48 squares of extra dark, bittersweet and semi sweet chocolate. This box alone would make a good gift! To yourself.
- Apron ~ so you don’t get chocolate all over yourself (not that that’s a bad thing)
- Cocoa Powder ~ Two canisters of cocoa powder, one sweetened (to drink!) and one unsweetened (for baking!)
- Baking Bars ~ Two baking bars, one 70% cacao, which you can eat straight, and one 99% cacao, which you could also eat, but that would make you insane, so we recommend you use this one for baking.
- Essence of Chocolate Cookbook ~ We could have give this cookbook away by itself, it’s so gorgeous with almost 400 pages of chocolate recipes, from “intensely chocolate” Chocolate Chocolate Cake to “hint of chocolate” White Velvet Cake (a recipe contributed by Rose Levy Berenbaum!). And it’s not just sweets. There are savory recipes for soups, barbcue and, of all things, salad. As strange as it may sound, we also love the fittingly luxurious feel of the thick, matte pages.
- Cacao Nibs ~ Perfectly roasted cocoa beans that have been broken down into little crunchy bits. They’re supposed to be good substitutes for roasted nuts or chocolate chips in baking, but we eat them straight.
- Chocolate Baking Chunks ~ One bag of semi-sweet at 62% cacao and one bag of bittersweet at 70% cacao
- Chocolate Bars ~ Eight bars of Scharffen Berger chocolate. There might have been nine bars.
Okay. Yeah, so there were nine bars. *blush*

Anyway.
How amazing is all of this?! We’re not sure what it’s worth, but we’re estimating the total value to be, oh, about, a bazillion dollars.

So when I created the perfect non-dairy and gluten-free fudgy brownie with chewy edges and a crisp top, I fell in complete chocolate love. Scharffen Berger helped me do this. When I haven’t found it in the stores and tried to remake the brownies with an alternative chocolate they always fall short. I would love love looooove this amazing prize!

Haven’t had much experience with fancier chocolate recipes/desserts, though I did see someone mention La Bete Noire in the comments and I looked it up and it looks easy. Will have to give it a try!

fallen chocolate souffle cake :)
It might just be ferrero rocheier, the combination of chcocolate hazelnuts and crips wafer is pretty much perfect.
My Homemade Chocolate Brownies, especially when I’ve used mint infused chocolate. The recipe calls for Natural Yoghurt which makes them really moist. They don’t ever last long in our house!!
Gosh they do just seem to be getting BETTER & BETTER! WOW!! My fave chocolate dessert is a bitter dark chocolate panna cotta!
My mom makes the most incredible chocolate truffles I have ever had… I’ve been eating them for as long as I can remember (luckily, she doesn’t make them too often!)

I absolutely adore hot chocolate *_*
Mmmmmm…..chocolate…..
My favorite chocolate dessert is Jamie Olivers Chocolate cake w/ ricotta cheese and pistachios!
Maria
For me it’s got to be a simple scoop of perfectly creamy, dark chocolate ice cream. (Potentially with a mountain of whipped cream on top.) Of course … the mountain of chocolate chip cookies my flatmate made for a Christmas party tonight sure look just as tempting…
Chocolate Stuff (yes, it actually IS something and that reallly IS it’s name) … just Chocolate Stuff :)

My favorite chocolate treat to make and eat has to be Barefoot’s Chocolate Ganache Cake . . . it truly takes delicousness to another level and impresses the toughest critics :)
I only get to pick one of my favorite chocolate desserts?!!? Impossible…but I will try. I guess my favorite would have to be the moist and deeply chocolately fudge brownie. Its a classic and you can’t go wrong with that.
MMMMMMMMMMMM

Speculoos spread dark chocolate cups!

Hmm…. Ben and Jerry’s “Phish food” ice cream. It does something to me. It’s my cure-all for everything.
Every Christmas I make my famous chocolate mousse cake! We love chocolate!!
Spiced chocolate Guinness cake!

Mexican Hot Chocolate Snickerdoodles?? Heaven!
Chocolate polenta pudding cake. Dear god, I need never eat another chocolate cake again.
I got this recipe 30 years ago when my children were in pre-school and it has been my go-to recipe for a chocolate treat ever since!
Brownie Cupcakes from Jack & Jill Playschool
2 cubes or ½ lb. butter
5 oz. Semi-sweet chocolate chips
1 c walnuts, toasted until fragrant, then chopped coarsely
1 c flour
1 ¾ c sugar
4 large eggs
1 tsp vanilla
pinch salt
Melt butter with chocolate chips over low heat in a medium saucepan. Remove from heat but leave in the saucepan.
Add the eggs, vanilla and sugar and stir to blend.
Stir in walnuts, flour, and pinch of salt and mix only until incorporated.
Fill muffin cups, lined with foil liners, only half full.
Bake at 350* for 20 minutes or until just done – do NOT overbake.
A toothpick inserted into the center will come out not wet, not dry, but very slightly sticky. These freeze extremely well in waxed paper lined, airtight plastic containers.
My favorite chocolate dessert of all time has to be Kahlua fudge brownie pie. Absolutely decadent.
gooey chocolate brownie warm out of the oven..mmmmmmmmm
Chocolate Eclair Torte…. oh my!
Bete Noire! http://www.epicurious.com/recipes/food/views/La-Bete-Noire-235831
Mint chocolate anything! Especially brownies :-)
It gotta be a rich Choc Banana Cake…I adore chocs as much as I adore bananas. :)
brownies
Rich chocolate ice cream is my favorite. Throw in a little Bailey’s and yes darling, I’ll marry you!
My favourite will be chocolate con churros that I had in Spain. Deep fried dough with ultra thick hot chocolate sauce. Who wouldn’t love them? Especially good when eating at the patio with the perfect weather people watching. Finger licking good!
One more thing…I love Scharffen Berger. So much do I love it that I have been scheming for for years to make it to the Bernachon Chocolate in Lyon where founder Robert Steinberg interned. Bernachon exists like some kind of crazy chocolate Shangri-La…so hard to get the chocolate…so far away…so fabulous!
Molten chocolate lava cake, served warm – with ice cream, of course ;)
I love the idea of making peppermint bark using those silicone moulds. I saw it on here. Use white and dark chocolate with crushed candy canes! Beautiful!
Best chocolate dessert? Well, lava cake is up there…but so is brownie batter by the spoonful…
This is the most challenging question I’ve had to answer in a long time… but it would probably be these amazing double-chocolate cookies I found via Tastespotting. They’re the perfect combination of bitter and sweet.
Homemade brownies with mint chocolate chips :) YUMMY!!!!!!!
Mississippi mud pie… definitely my favourite chocolate cake to make!
Chocolate Fondue with homemade Rum Soaked Preserved Cherries! love it <3
Dean and Deluca make a Chocolate Pot de Creme…it is divine indeed
really dense fudgy brownies with cup of black coffee
I like to make an old fashioned chocolate pudding cake.
The baked brownie, spiced up version from Smitten Kitchen! Sadly good old regular brownies just do not make the cut as compared to their spicy cousins.
It’s hot chocolate weather!
mmm…I’d have to say hot brownies with icecream!
I’d have to go with Chocolate truffle cookies. They are so small that you just don’t expect the intense chocolate taste that explodes from them.
Chocolate mousse is definitely my favorite. My mom’s recipe of course.
anything that has the chocolate/salt combination–like sea salt truffles or chocolate bark w/ savory toppings. Yum!
Straight! Just a single piece of dark chocolate to melt away in my mouth.
Hmm… I think I have to go with a very VERY good chocolate chip cookie made with bittersweet chips and topped with sea salt.
Classic Hot Cocoa with Whipped Cream and Candy Cane Bits.
All time favorite has been the chocolate & peanut butter mousse cake at Charlie Palmer’s. So simple but so so so good, I still crave it over two years later
Hot chocolate fudge with caramel sauce
My mom’s Mahogany Cake – chocolate and cinnamon and lots of red food dye. She made it for my birthday for years.

I love chocolate anything :] Chocolate Waffles though are delicious. I am also a Carob fan, Carob Truffles!
Dorie Greenspans’ Chocolate Chunkers!
Little bits and pieces of chocolate, or luscious dark chocolate cake.

My favorite has to be a hot fudge brownie sundae with peppermint ice cream. So. Freaking. Good. :-D
My favorite chocolate dessert is a slice of frozen chocolate-covered cappuccino crunch cake! Sooo delicious.
double chocolate chip cookies for sure
That looks absolutely amazing!
It’s so hard to choose when it comes to chocolate, so I’ll have to say a warm piece of my grandmother’s chocolate sheet cake with ice cream~
I love chocolate Gateau, flour less choc. cake with almond meal .
I love chocolate souffle…. I made chocolate souffle cupcakes with a white chocolate cream….it was DIVINE! thanks for doing this!

http://www.nytimes.com/2008/07/09/dining/09chip.html
Chocolate Lava Cake…always my favorite :)
Pretty much any recipe with chocolate. Even straight up cocoa beans. But especially recipes with chocolate and peanut butter!
dark chocolate lava cake with powdered sugar.
That is the best thing I have ever seen! So…much…chocolate. I would say my favorite chocolate dessert is a simple chocolate mousse…three ingredients: high quality chocolate, whipping cream, and egg yolks. Sinfully delicious!
David Lebovitz’s German Chocolate Cake. Hands down.
Chocolate-caramel tart, please!
chocolate [anything] bark here
What a great giveaway for the Holiday. I can’t even start what I want to make with this, but chocolate version of buche de noel sounds appropriate for this holiday season :)
I like chocolate…seriously anything chocolate! :)
Asking me to pick a favorite chocolate dessert is like asking me to pick my favorite child. If it’s chocolate, really, really chocolately, and gooey, and rich (I may have to take a second here) I’m in heaven.
For all you adventurous chocoholics out there I have something you have GOT to try! The Mexican Hot Chocolate Gourmet Marshmallows from Daybreak Farms – http://www.daybreakfarmstore.com. They are fantastic!!! Rich chocolate in a soft, fluffy marshmallow, and a little heat from the spices. These are seriously GREAT.
Dorie Greenspan’s World Peace Cookies and my very favorite chocolate to use with the recipe is Scharffen Berger. I’ve gotten marriage proposals from the combination of the two!
triple chocolate brownies are my favorite
I’ve always said that molten chocolate lava cake would be the main event in my ultimate Last Meal. Some things are overdone for a reason!
Chocolate lava cake. With lots of lava.
i love dark chocolate ghiradelli baking chips!
Chocolate Chocolate Chip Cookies!
My favorite is chocolate lava cake…yuuuuuummmmm.
Coffee-Chocolate Layer Cake with Mocha-Mascarpone Frosting from Bon Appetit!
I love Chocolate Cheesecake! YUMMY
Love the triple-layer brownies with cream cheese frosting!

Oh man, Mexican Hot Chocolate is probably the best thing you could do to chocolate (other than just eating it). I like mine from the Wired Cafe in Bethlehem PA especially.
Chocolate layer cake with chocolate frosting :)
chocolate torte!!!
Flourless Chocolate Cake with loads of whipped cream. Heaven on a fork.
Just a piece of dark chocolate to go with my red wine
Flourless chocolate torte. With a little raspberry coulis. And whipped cream. And no one around to judge me.
Hands down my mum’s chocolate cheesecake…family friends actually request that she bring it along to THEIR dinner parties!! Rich, creamy and made with love!!! yum!!
I love chocolate mousse. It’s so rich and perfectly chocolaty.
Oh my goodness! How fun. My favorite chocolate dessert has got to be warm chocolate chip cookies. So classic, so delicious.
Chocolate lava cake mmmm
gotta go with the classic: chocolate chip cookies.
I LOVE cowboy cookies… and this package.
My favourite is Flourless Chocolate Cake! Mmmmmmmmmm.
my favorite chocolate dessert?! how do i even pick just one?!? i suppose ill have to go with homemade hot chocolate with some homemade marshmallows… mhmmmm
Hard to pick a favorite chocolate dessert. I suppose it would depend on the time of year, or the occasion. You can’t beat a chocolate cake with chocolate butter cream frosting for a birthday cake. A steamy cup of hot chocolate with homemade marshmallows are a must after cross country skiing. But of course, it is the chocolate chip cookie with pecans that will always please on any afternoon.
Liquid truffles, the lavender chocolate flavor is awesome.
Anything with dark chocolate!
Wow, slim shot that I’ll get picked, but I absolutely ADORE MOLTEN CHOCOLATE FUDGE CAKES!!!!
Mmm my favorite chocolate dessert is definitely my homemade salted fudge! Sooo yummy!
Hmm. Hmm. It might be, milk chocolate chip cookies, chewy? But if we’re looking for a super chocolate dessert it might be chocolate ice cream. I’ve always wanted to try Scharffen Berger for baking…thanks for a great giveaway!
I love chocolate cobbler w/ vanilla ice cream!
French Silk Pie hands down. So sinful but soooo good.
chocolate souffle with peanut butter creme anglaise <3
A really excellent warm chocolate chip cookie. Or a truffle…..
Sublime, bittersweet chocolate tarts–for starters!
Fallen chocolate souffle is always a winner.
I love chocolate! It’s so fun to play with, temper, drizzle, melt…Makes a great addition to any non-chocolate dessert.
My favorite chocolate dessert would probably have to be a Chocolate Orange Souffle! yumss
brownie!
I love Triple Chocolate Mousse Cake!
Absolutely it is brownies!
My favorite is French Silk Pie with graham crust. My mom makes it for special occasions. It’s the kind that you only take a little piece, although you’d like to eat the whole pie because it is THAT good, but you end up laying on the couch regardless, savoring the flavor and feeling the sugar run through your head.
I’m partial to my mother’s chocolate almond cake. Not quite flourless, but almost, and it’s super dense and rich. Definitely one of those desserts you want to be able to eat more of, since it’s so delicious, but it’s so very rich you can only eat so much at once.
Her hazelnut cocoa macaroons are a close second, but the cake wins for pure indulgence.
I love me a good black forest cake. Had one every birthday growing up in PA.
My very favorite dessert made with chocolate is Dark Chocolate Cake with a milk chocolate mousse on the top layer, dark chocolate buttercream in the two bottom layers and a dark chocolate ganache on top. Decorated with raspberries and served with the best Kona coffee (or Jamaican in a perfect world) and a dab of whipped cream. MMMMMmmmmmmmm!
I love all things chocolate, but my favorite would have to be a “cake” my chef sister makes. It has a rich, chewy chocolate brownie-like bottom with thick layer of whipped cream cheese peanut butter goodness with loads of chopped peanut butter cups on top. She then adds additonal cups as decoration. It is the richest, most delicious creation I’ve ever had. :)
Dorie’s World Peace cookies! Salted Chocolate is the best!
Depends on my mood!
Sometimes I like to crunch on cocoa nibs, other times I like a nice chewy brownie, chocolate milk or a slice of chocolate cake. *yum*
Old fashioned chocolate cake is definitely my favorite chocolate dessert.
Warm chocolate chip cookies with a small glass of milk. Some things are classics for a reason.
Brownies of course; fudge-like, cake-like, batter-like. Yum.
chocolate souffle
My grandpa has made a dark chocolate mousse since I was a kid. Once I was sick at my grandparents and sleeping on the couch. From what I’m told, when he brought the chocolate mousse out I woke up, ate the mousse, licked the bowl and fell back asleep. I still don’t remember waking up and doing this, but if I did it was worth it!
Salted Chocolate Caramel Tart – it took me 3 tries to get it right, but totally worth it!
It’s not fair to pick just ONE!?!?! That’s cruelty! I mean, chocolate chip cookies so basic but so beautifully delicious. Fudge swirled with peanut butter. Oh yeah. Tiger chocolate (peanut butter & white chocolate). Nice!!! My homemade ooey gooey chocolate brownies… oh yes! Brownie caramel cheese cake… to die for. But I think THE VERY BEST, the one that makes sadness a thing of yesterday would just HAVE to be salted caramel with chocolate drizzles. YUM!!
warm chocolate brownies!!
Chocolate Cheesecake of course!
Dark chocolate ganache cake
chocolate with peanut butter
anything with dark chocolate and hazelnut… or nutella ice cream :)
CHOCOLATE SOUFFLE!!
My favorite chocolate dessert has to be flourless chocolate cake!
I LOVE Chocolate Souffle at the Source in Washington D.C.!
http://makinglifedelicious.com/2010/12/01/new-york-times-40-hour-chocolate-chip-cookies/
Who doesn’t love a good basic chocolate chip cookie recipe? I don’t care about waiting the hours, I will make chocolate chip cookies just because it’s yummy and smells good.
Brownies!
guinness chocolate cake, that’s for sure!
I would probably say warm chocolate melting cake. It’s cakey on the top but when you break into it, it has a warm, gooey, fudgy layer. YUMMMM…
Chocolate cake, I like it simple!
My favorite chocolate dessert is mousse au chocolat! Yummy…^^
Buckeyes with a Nutella filling instead of peanut butter! :9
a chocolate chambord souffle <3
Brownies. Definitely!

Chocolate Cake w. Peanut Butter Cream Cheese Frosting covered in Chocolate Ganache! My absolute favorite!
I’m a big fan of the flourless chocolate cake recipes out there! Something about the rich, decadent cake….Mmm!
Chocolate peanut butter pie with whip cream! Just had some last night :)
Chocolate Peanut Butter pie is my favorite chocolate dessert.
Chocolate chunk cookies with macadamia nuts :)
My wife makes the best chocolate cake.
Filled with mousse cocolate chunks and covered in ganache.
even a chocolate bar will do the trick.
cinnamon hazelnut brownies. gooey and delicious :)
My favourite chocolate dessert is chocolate lasagna. Layers made of chocolate cake spread as thin as you can get it without seeing the bottom of the pan through it, and a filling of whipped cream and mascarpone cheese. Chunks of chocolate make for a great textural surprise inside and really shows off the smoothness of the whipped mascarpone filling. It is wicked good, and is guaranteed to impress a crowd.
Layered milk and dark chocolate mousse. I have an amazingly simple recipe that never fails to “wow” my guests!
Schottischer himbertorte (dark chocolate sponge, raspberry topping) at the Opernpalais Cafe. Still think about it, 4 years after visiting Berlin.
My favorite is Flourless Chocolate Cake………can’t be beat. Chocolate three layer bars come in as second, can’t wait to make both!
Best chocolate dessert is Chocolate Guinness Cake! Chocolate +butter + can of extra stout Guinness = The most amazing cake ever!
molten chocolate lava cake!!
chocolate pudding!
Chocolate mousse is the perfect dessert. It is light, creamy, and packs a whopping mouthful of chocolate with every bite.
They may be overexposed and/or passe (even Domino’s Pizza makes them now), but I still can’t resist chocolate lava cakes!
Double Chocolate Biscotti is my favorite chocolate treat. And that’s just what I’m about to make this afternoon.
I love, love, love the combination of chocolate and mint, so anything with that is a winner!
A dark chocolate covered caramel with sea salt. Yum!!!!
Dark Hot Chocolate from The South Bend Chocolate Company…divine. Absolutely divine.
It’s hard to beat a high-quality bar of dark chocolate, unless it has almonds… Chocolate silk pie ranks up there!
Chocolate cheesecake
Chocolate souffles
Mmmm Scharffen Berger… <3
I recently learned how to make really simple, really yummy molten lava cakes, but adapted them for tiny cupcake pans. Perfect serving sizes.
Chocolate Lava Cake, no contest.
Chocolate fudge cake or chocolate mousse… hands down. Happy Holidays!
Dark chocolate orange cake :o)
I’m savoring super dark, rich, chocolate ice cream with toasted almond bits, toasted coconut flakes and chocolate nibs. Though chocolate in any form will do – decadent chocolate cake, brownies, creamy chocolate mousse, crunchy and gooey chocolate chip cookies, chocolate covered chewy nougats – the list is endless. It’s a basic food group all by itself, global in nature and admired for its benefits both physical and psychological. OMG I just can’t get enough CHOCOLATE!!! Oh-oh It’s melting….. :)~
Mexican hot chocolate molten cakes from Gimme Some Oven are my favorite chocolate dessert! http://gimmesomeoven.com/mexican-hot-chocolate-molten-lava-cakes/
Gotta go with brownies!
The crazy insanely delicious hot chocolate in Quebec City from Choco-Musee Erico – made only more satisfying since I held it in my cold hands during the first snowfall of the season.

peppermint chocolate brownies.yummm
Wow! This looks like an amazing assortment! Sea salt caramels are definitely my first choice for choc-dessert :)
My favorite chocolate recipe is dark chocolate pots de creme. I’ve found a great base recipe now, and I love adding extras to keep it interesting…a splash or bourbon or espresso, bits of candied citrus, and in the summer I like to top them with strawberry preserves and a bit of basil.
A sickeningly sweet chocolate brownie with icing. I love sugary edge!
Give me chocolate and I’m blissful.
Gluten-free brownies!
-Theo’s in Seattle has phenomenal tasting stations that are addicting – especially chocolate bars with ginger, with chili, or perhaps a hint of orange.
-A straight up old fashioned chocolate donut
-Medialunas de chocolate are good anytime!!!
LOVE Scharffenberger – favorite chocolate dessert: homemade rocky road with chocolate marshmallows……………or gooey fudge brownie sundae wih cocoa nibs and dark chocolate ice cream……….or (padding out to the kitchen at 2 in the morning to break off another piece of) chocolate “crack” bark loaded with chocolate caramels, truffle pieces, and cocoa krispies……………CHOCLATE ROCKS!
my chocolate favorite dessert is sachertorte!
Chocolate nutella cupcakes!
Boring, perhaps, but I’m a sucker for just good, plain chocolate.
Following that, chocolate ice cream. Or ice cream accompanying good, plain chocolate :D
[in terms of more high-effort, *created* chocolate desserts... this will probably always be the love of my life]
Chocolate hazelnut cookies. chocolate hazelnut cake. ahhh-maaazzzz-ing

Hot Fudge Sundae
Brownies may be my favourite, but everything that has chocolate is good :)
anything chocolate really, and a tall glass of cold milk only makes it better
Black Chocolate Truffles… Mmmmmmmmm…
Brownies…any kind! Especially edge pieces!
Truffles!
Lava cake :)
