I served this for Valentines Day for my husband. We both loved it. I did end up being a little on the salty side. Neither of us seemed to mind it as it wasn't overpoweringly salty. (I should have tasted it before adding additional salt) I don't keep wine or sherry on hand but I did have white cooking wine and cooking sherry so there wasn't an alcohol taste like some of the other reviewers found. Since there was only two of us eating I cut the recipe in half, except for the garlic, I still crushed up 2 cloves and it was perfect. I served this with beer bread, cooked chicken (seasoned with salt and pepper) apples and veggies. We both loved it!

Yummy! I made this for a SuperBowl Party! It was quick and easy and delicious. With it I served, pretzels, marshmallows, bananas, angelfood cake and vanilla wafers. I didn't use 32 oz of grated chocolate and used 2 bags of Hersheys Milk Chocolate Chips. I'm also not a fan of coffee and chocolate together so I skipped that. Per other reviewers I also omitted the sugar and water and ended up with the perfect consistency. I will definitely make this again, only next time I may try it with the Baileys Irish Cream or almond extract!

This recipe had an incredible taste. Some of the directions seemed unclear. Was I supposed to drain the chickpeas or use the liquid. I drained them and found there wasn't enough liquid so I ended up adding water to it. I mixed up some homemade biscuits to go with the pasta dish. Hubby asked me to make this again and I will happily comply!
