Added a little garlic and horseradish to the sauce with the shallots - put it with prime rib instead of tenderloin. Amazing!!!! We couldn't get enough of this and had a dark chocolate rimmed glass with port wine for dessert. The perfect meal!!!

I am not really much of a beef eater. This recipe makes me want to change my mind. It is easy to cook but is still fancy. Perfect for a busy family that wants something different.I served it with a bake potato and asparagus.

I wanted a decadent sauce for steaks that wasn't cream-based. This was exactly it. I used the full one ounce of bittersweet chocolate (60% cacoa) called for and thought it was just right. It's a deep and rich flavor that complimented my filet mignon steaks perfectly. After drizzling sauce over meat I topped with bits of fresh bacon. I can't wait to make this again and again. Thank you!

Very Good! Loved the sauce. Easy to make, yet tasted gourmet. I served this with mashed potatoes and carmelized butternut squash.

THIS IS AN EXCELLENT RECIPE. SEARING THE STEAKS IN A HOT PAN INSTEAD OF GRILLING THEM GIVES THEM A NICE STEAK-HOUSE LIKE RESULT. I ADDED JUST A BIT LESS CHOCOLATE AND A BIT LESS VINEGAR, AND THE SAUCE WAS ABSOLUTLY PERFECT WITH JUST A HINT OF CHOCOLATE. MY FILLETS WERE FROM COSTCO, SO THEY WERE VERY THICK. I COOKED THEM ABOUT 5 MINUTES A SIDE, OR TO 123 DEGREES ON MY MEAT THERMOMETER FOR MED. RARE. I THEN WRAPPED THEM IN FOIL FOR A FEW MINUTES FOR THE JUICES TO RISE. YUM!!!! YOU WILL LOVE IT!

Excellent recipe! Make sure to take the shallots out or the sauce is chunky. Pay attention that the chocolate doesn't get too thick, an A-1 consistency seems right but not what I ended up with.

you would never believe the sauce would be this good looking at the ingredients but they blend so nicely. I thought the sauce tasted too chocolatelyat first until I added salt and pepper to taste and a splash more port. Then, it was as good as any restaurant would serve. We had people over and this was served on the plate with a filet mignon in the center of it and it was oh soo good. I recommend this dish for entertaining and you would swear you served a 300.00 dollar meal for way less.
