ITALIAN STYLE HOT CHOCOLATE WITH WHIPPED CREAM

FLOURLESS CHOCOLATE AND PEAR CAKE
I must admit I always choose creamy desserts over cakes, as I find it harder to finish a slice of thick cake than a few spoonfuls of cream. Anyhow, this cake is one of the few exceptions. I guess the fact that it is flourless has a lot to do with it. This is a…
