We Should Cocoa – Anything Goes Round-Up
Lots of chocolatey goodness in this month’s We Should Cocoa. As we had a nice easy holiday theme of Anything Goes, there’s even more of a diversity of entries than usual. The one thing that unifies them is their delectable demeanour and desirability. As this wasn’t a specific challenge, I was a bit more relaxed about the rules this time and I’m doing the round-up a little differently.

Our Monthly Chocolate Challenge
suelle

I’ve had a busy month and completely forgot WSC. The irony is that I had bakes I could have added to the link-up! So many great looking dishes here!

Ah we missed you Suelle, they don’t get easier than this month’s challenge 😉
Dom
30th August 2015
oh yes… too many (is that possible) chocolate treats for me to salivate over… a lovely lovely job!
Choclette
1st September 2015
Even the best of us can have too much chocolate sometimes – or so I’m told.

OMG all wonderful, I haven’t been baking much with cocoa or chocolate recently, but i have been making drinking chocolate with proper chocolate melted in hot milk – maybe I should have been cheeky and entered that. As always lovely delicious round up.
Choclette
1st September 2015
Hot chocolate made with real chocolate is definitely welcome Shaheen. I quite fancy a mug of that myself right now.

Agree with the comments above, what a delightful array of chocolate treats! The chocolate carrot cake looks delicious. Thanks for hosting and for including my late entry here. 🙂

1st September 2015
The trouble I find with these round-ups is that I usually want to try everything Lucy and it’s just not possible – very unfair!
Sisley White
30th August 2015
Oh my goodness what a range of the most delicious chocolate bakes around. I want to eat them all. Have to decide which one to make first.
Choclette
1st September 2015
Thanks Sisley, that’s a very tough decision to make.

lovely array of chocolatey goodness here – my eye was caught by quite a few of them, but the marquise is on my to make list anyway so will go check Janey’s post!
Choclette
1st September 2015
That marquise does look rather wonderful Nazima. I’ve made one before, but it didn’t look as good as that one.

What a fine abundance of varied entries. I can see that there’s no danger of chocolate becoming unpopular any time soon. Thanks for keeping this lovely challenge going.

Tracy

Wow, my weekend of bank holiday blog reading starts here – such a fab variety of recipes, and thanks for including mine. Not sure which is my favourite – wish we could try them all rather than just read about them 🙂
