This cookbook is one of the "Best Kept Series" and features recipes contributed by Women's Institute members, renowned for their traditional home cooking. Generally speaking, WI members have learned to cook from their mothers and grandmothers, from family friends and each other. They don't have to rediscover the British tradition of cooking because they never lost touch with it in the first place. This volume runs the gamut of chocolate cookery, from completely OTT choices like "Death by Chocolate" and tiramisu cheesecake to relatively light dishes like chocolate sorbet or white chocolate bread and butter pudding. More than any other single ingredient, chocolate inspires passionate devotion. It is a luxury that everyone can afford and there are dishes here to appeal to every taste and occasion: from cakes and gateaux, through tarts, pies and cheesecakes, cold desserts and hot puddings, biscuits and cookies, to some unexpected treats including savoury recipes with chocolate.
