Chocolate rules at every party and I couldn’t wait to share these easy chocolate recipes. These chocolate desserts will become your favorites once you make them.
Two Simple Chocolate Desserts For Your Oscar Party Menu
Easy Chocolate Truffles Dipped in White Chocolate – Truffle is just another word for delicious in this simple recipe. Four ingredients create this divine Oreo Cookie chocolate ball. Bites of chocolate win everyone over. Serve in miniature cupcake papers, if you want.
Chocolate Cola Cake – Cut these into small brownie bites for a chocoholic’s dream! This might be the easiest and best chocolate recipe ever. I like to make them in a 11x15x1-inch pan and cut into squares so they are more of a bar cookie.
Coffee Condiments – Coffee’s perfect accompaniment – fill your deviled egg dish with your favorite coffee additions for a pretty perfect cup.
Do You Have a Go-To Serving Platter?
If you don’t have a go-to serving dish like here is a great large serving tray I recommend! I like white dishes because they really make the food jump out at you and look so appetizing and beautiful. If this is something you do not already have I recommend you picking up one as it seems I am always grabbing for mine when I entertain.
