chococheese2I would say this is Cheesecake Factory level. Yeah. It’s THAT good! Smooth, rich, chocolatey CHOCOLATE! yum!!!! Garnishing with strawberries (or raspberries) is a must to complement the intense chocolatey richness. …A glass of milk works well too if you run out of strawberries.  Oh, and it is fairly easy to make… making it even better if that is possible.

We went to a dinner party the other weekend with our med school couple friends and I brought this dish along. The dinner was on a busy day for us so I needed to make something that would be good made ahead of time (the night before) and this decadence came to mind. It was a big hit! One of my friends even said “You should start a cooking blog!” What an awesome compliment! It made me feel really good. 🙂

The last time my husband and I enjoyed this was 3 1/2 years ago right after we got back from our honey moon. We subleased my sister’s apartment for the summer and she left half of this in the fridge. Lucky us!!! And that is when we started gaining weight. haha… Welcome to married life!
