Only true chocoholics can complete this tricky quiz!

A whopping 95 percent of UK adults eat chocolate but how much do you actually know about the universally loved sweet treat?

Has all this talk of chocolate got you in the mood for, well, chocolate? You’re in the right place.

We have every chocolatey recipe imaginable – from the best chocolate cakes, to brownies, biscuits, desserts and truffles.

Need help deciding? We don’t blame you – that quiz was enough decision making for one day. Here are some of our all-time favourite chocolate recipes to satisfy those cravings.

Double chocolate cookies

If you’re going to make chocolate cookies, you may as well use two types of chocolate. Our easy recipe for double chocolate cookies is foolproof – follow the step-by-step guide and expect chewy-in-the-middle cookies with melty chocolate chunks. We have plenty of other chocolate cookie recipes to try.

Chocolate brownies

Our easiest-ever chocolate brownies are fudgy, dark and chocolatey. Serve these brownies warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream and you'll understand what happiness is. Try more of our best brownie recipes.

Nigella's dark chocolate cake with pistachos and rose petals

We can’t talk chocolate without Nigella. Her dark and sumptuous chocolate cake is rich, covered in a silky chocolate ganache, and, unbelievably, vegan. The rose petals and pistachios make it dinner party dessert-worthy, but it’s just as good for elevenses with a cup of coffee. Deep-dive into the best chocolate cakes.

Chocolate lava cake

Donal Skehan’s chocolate lava cake is a clever way to remove the stress from making a chocolate fondant, with equally good results. The pudding is cooked until crisp on the outside, but still gloriously gooey inside. Donal makes an instant banana and peanut butter ice cream to have alongside – well, it’d be rude not to. Enjoy more of our best chocolate desserts.

Chocolate and orange cheesecake

One of our favourite flavour pairings – chocolate and orange – is taken to new heights with this easy chocolate and orange cheesecake. The filling is made extra orangey with a mix of marmalade and orange zest, then baked for a light-as-air texture. Love the chocolate and fruit combo? Try our chocolate bakes with fruit.
