Chocolate Almond Soufflé
I love this Chocolate Almond Soufflé recipe. You turn it out upside down on a plate. You don’t have to worry if it falls because it is supposed to and you can make it ahead. Sadly, my husband is allergic to chocolate, so haven’t made it in awhile. You can go overboard and pour hot fudge sauce on it or sprinkle it with powdered sugar. I have a feeling I know what most people would do!

German Chocolate Cupcakes
Contrary to popular belief, German chocolate cake did not originate in Germany. Its roots can be traced back to 1852 when American Samuel German developed a type of dark baking chocolate for the American Baker's Chocolate Company. The brand name of the product, Baker's German's Sweet Chocolate, was named in honor of him. German's chocolate cake, is a layered chocolate cake from the US filled and topped with a coconut-pecan frosting. This version uses cocoa powder and is made into cupcakes.
