Favorite Chocolate fix?

With all this talk of Chocolate.........I got to wondering what are your favorite type of chocolate fixes? Do cookies, cake, or brownies work for you? Do you have to have straight up chocolate? Do you prefer Milk Chocolate or Dark Chocolate?
Do you only eat a particular brand of chocolate?

I have had chocolate on the brain for the last couple of days

Nicole why do you have to do this to me so early in the morning before I even work out? LOL
I love Lindt, See's, and Euphoria. I prefer milk and I love caramel. I like it softish I think it was this board where I posted I "cook" my chocolate sometimes by putting it (still wrapped of course) in my bra it makes it soft and melty. MMMMMMM

I have a square of Ghirardelli Dark Chocolate with Mint filling (the little 1 x 1 squares) or the Ghirardelli Dark chocolate with caramel filling squares once a week I would guess. I am not a "chocolate lover" but when it sounds good, I have Ghirardelli. I am more apt to have Ghirardelli Hot Cocoa (with some kahlua in it at night) than the candy itself. I do enjoy brownies but don't have them often. I only eat cookies if they are right out of the oven and falling apart..it's the only way I like them and I enjoy oatmeal chocolate chip

Depends on the day...and what is on hand. Right now I have a bag of Lindt chocolates (YUMM-O ) at home, those are tops on my list. Otherwise I'll have a snack size candy bar, and it has to be either a PB cup, or a Kit Kat. IF I'm in a baking mood (and can stand the 25 minute wait), I'll bake some chocolate chocolate chip muffins (thank you Mr. Schwan's...LOL). If I'm really desperate and there isn't any candy or cookies, or I don't want to wait for the oven, I'll have a glass of chcocolate milk.

If you want the very best chocolate cookies in the world order berger cookies online at bergercookies.com. They are only sold in Maryland but I bet if you love chocolate you will love these.

I only eat chocolate once a month on a certain day. When I do, I really only like godiva or russell stovers. I do love warm brownies with vanilla haagen diaz ice cream. I also love warm chocolate chip cookies. Oh, and one of my favorites is WARM Jello cook and serve chocolate pudding with real whipped cream on top!

Icansavedaily - Berger cookies really are something, aren't they? There's a discount bread store somewhere in south Baltimore (my in-laws go there) that sells the Berger cakes for cheap.

I love white chocolate the best. I like dark chocolate next and I really don't much care for milk chocolate at all.

Chocolate? No thanks. Pass the starbursts, skittles, and espresso please.

FYI - was at our local Aldi store today and they had Ghiradelli chomping chocolate bars for $1.99, much cheaper than the grocery stores here. I bought 3 of those puppies: the 60% cacao mint bliss, 60% espresso escape , and (I'm swooning over this one, shoulda bought 3 of em ;-) the 86% midnight reverie, be fool my stillish heart ;-).
No sons were in the house when I came home with the booty, so 2 dd's and moi-self each had a few squares of the mint bliss. Mmmmmmmmmmmm. good isn't even the word for it.
I do like Godiva hot cocoa, but rarely have it.

I used to work at a drug store uptown before they closed down and we sold Fannie May candy. The pixies are to die for and I wish I still had access to them. We would be able to get the chocolates at a 33% off discount so I stocked up whenever I could on those lol. Now I pretty much settle for anything that is milk chocolate, but I really like the Cadbury bars though.

Oh my gosh-my sister just bought me some of the best chocolate I have ever tasted for my birthday. They are sold at Heinens stores here in Ohio and they are Heinens Two Brothers brand organic chocolate truffles. They are dark chocolate dusted with a bittersweet cocoa powder-so creamy,they melt in your mouth! Godiva doesn't hold a candle to these!(and I'm a chocolate afficiando

Reese's are my absolute favorite.
