I need some ideas for a primary recipe for a chocolate show! I've got a secondary recipe, but I need something that uses more products
 
I love making the Double Chocolate Mocha Trifle for my chocolate shows. You can use many tools with this recipe. Rectangle Baker, knife, mini spatula serving spatula, Chillzanne bowl, whisk, measure-all, Classic batter bowl, prep bowl (to dissolve coffee), scrapers, food chopper, cutting boards, stainless steel serving spoon, sissors (to open Heath bars). I'm sure I'm missing something, but you get the picture.

It's a fast and easy recipe to make and there is never a drop leftover! :p

Chocolate Cheesecake w/Oreo crust!! YUM!!!How about a chocolate cheesecake with an Oreo crust OR a Turtle Cheesecake. You can show off tons of the SSkit tools, plus the SA boats, bowls, platters, and 3 tiered stand for the display of the cake and different toppings! :D
 
Where can I find the Chocolate Cheesecake with Oreo crust recipe?
 
If you have the family skillet, the new Molten Chocolate Brownie Cake (I think that's the name) would be great1 I've tasted it and it's awesome, plus skillet cakes always amaze people.
