National Day bbq: what to make

My friends are having a bbq at their place on Thursday, and I’m in charge of dessert. I’d have made trifle, except some other friends are bringing konnyaku jelly, so I’m thinking something more cakey or chocolatey would bring some variety.

I don’t really have much time to make dessert (Wed night and Thurs afternoon), so something simple will have to do:

• Suzy’s Cake, from the book Chocolate Desserts by Pierre Herme
• A second stab at the chocolate cherry cupcakes, from Nigella Lawson,
• Yellow cupcakes, from Martha Stewart
• Chocolate rice krispie treats, from Cooks.com

It’s a tough fight between the cake and the chocolate cupcakes!
