I Need a Chocolate Fix NOW

It's a cool rainy day. I need to be creative and I need a chocolate fix. I also need a chocolate house warming gift for a special friend that has a new home. I wish I could send these chocolate recipes prepared with love and chocolate to my special friend Charley but the distance between us is too great. These are simple chocolate recipes that will give you a chocolate fix and give anyone the pleasure of giving or receiving chocolate. Let us roll up our sleeves, take off our rings, wash our hands and get cooking chocolate... eating chocolate too.
