I’m not really a big fan of chocolate cake – a lot of times I think it can be rather boring and dry – so I wasn’t sure I was going to like this recipe. I am a huge fan of raspberries though so I figured it was worth a try. It was really great – the combination of the raspberries, chocolate and bruléed sugar were terrific – my niece said she thought it was the best dessert she’d ever eaten. It was surprisingly easy to make – my only difficulty was that I didn’t get the sauce thick enough. It still tasted great but it was a little thin. On the bright side though, I have a lot of raspberries and eggs in the refrigerator so I have plenty of supplies to make it again – practice makes perfect.
