Delice et Chocolat - Ardmore

The Best Desserts In America, According To Christina Tosi - The Infatuation

"“It's the chocolate cake that all other chocolate cakes are measured against. Whether or not it's the first chocolate cake that ever existed, it might as well be, because it is the icon. In Bake Club land, when I was like, ‘We gotta give people the best home chocolate cake ever,’ I was like, ‘Well, obviously there needs to be mayonnaise in it [like the one at Portillo’s]’ because mayonnaise has oil and sugar and salt and eggs. Theirs is moist, which, whether you like the word or not, when it comes to chocolate cake, that is an adjective that must exist in order for the chocolate cake for me to pass muster. It's layered. It's got amazing chocolate frosting. We just hilariously did a collaboration with them where we made a chocolate cake cookie, where it's the flavor of that cake, but in a dense fudgy chocolate cookie land with milk chocolate frosting pieces in it.”" - brennan carley
