31 Days of Delicious Chocolate Recipes

My 31 days of writing about chocolate are over. It began in response to the Nester’s challenge and invitation to writing for 31 days in October about a topic of our choosing. There were over 1200 of us that participated in this challenge. Wow!

Normally, I write about coupons and saving money and living frugally. I write book reviews and share my encouraging thoughts for wives and moms. Those are things I live and know. I also love to bake, so decided to use this series as an opportunity to share some of my favorite recipes.

It was wonderful…and exhausting…and encouraging…and motivating. Most importantly, it was a good change of pace for me.

I knew what I was writing about each day – chocolate. At the start of the series, I planned what recipes I wanted to share. With few exceptions, I stuck to those recipes. Since I knew what recipes those were, I could bake ahead. And bake ahead I did! That was the only way I could make these series work.

It was nice to have a reason to bake. It was nice to have feedback on my chocolate recipes. It was nice to gain some new chocolate recipes for my box. Mostly, it was nice to be able to share chocolate treats with friends, family and students – just because.

I’m glad I did this series. I really am. It was a good challenge for me – and an opportunity to put my chocolate recipes in writing.

Now, tell me. What was your favorite chocolate recipe that I shared?

My new favorites are the chocolate syrup and thin mints. Oh, and the frozen chocolate chip yogurt! They were all good. My old favorites are buckeyes and chocolate chip cheesecake, of course.

I’m ever so curious to hear yours!
