Notes: I confess - I have never made this! But, a friend of mine, Jill, made this for our wedding reception that we had at the Renton Community Center about a month after our wedding. The bitter sweetness of the chocolate matches the bittersweetness of the memories of the wonderful party and Jill wrecking her car on the way to it. The cakes and Jill made it unscathed - but the car was totaled!
