A Chocolate Drink to Make Willy Wonka Proud
Continuing with some sweet deliciousness, Jael and Dan Rattigan of French Broad Chocolates have shared their recipe for a Chocolate Liquid Truffle. Super easy to make and a treat for any time you want just a little something sweet.
Take a look at what they say about this tasty drink!
“The (Chocolate) Liquid Truffle is French Broad Chocolate Lounge’s signature, ganache-based drinking chocolate. In this recipe, we show you how to make a Liquid Truffle at home, using one whole 60 gram chocolate bar from French Broad Chocolates. This recipe is delicious with any of our craft chocolate bars, so long as there are not inclusions in the bar (such as our almond chocolate bar).”
