When this domestic maven has a favorite dessert, you know it's gotta be good. Don't be fooled by their simplicity; the flavor and decadence of these elegant sweets will win hearts whether you make them at home or bring them along to a party. While desserts may be best in their classic form, we strongly believe doctored hot chocolate, with delicious add-ins and toppings, is the best.
