[1]When a friend graciously offered to host Thanksgiving dinner this year, I told her I would make a dessert. I was excited to reprise the triple chocolate mousse cake [2] I’d baked last Christmas, which is a fantastic recipe and especially festive. So I was a little surprised when she gently suggested I bring something more traditional, like a pie or apple crisp. Really? My perspective is that chocolate transcends tradition. What do you think? On Thanksgiving, do you prefer the classics?
