HOMEMADE CHOCOLATE LIQUEUR, a simple and delicious recipe perfect to serve after lunch, great to give as a Christmas gift, and enjoyable to savor in front of the TV.
The other day my brother called me and asked for the chocolate liqueur recipe we used to make years ago at the pizzeria, convinced, I went to find it on the blog but I had never published it!
So I gathered the ingredients and got to it immediately. Last night, the aroma of chocolate liqueur filled the house, luckily I never run out of cocoa, milk, and cream, and I still have the liqueur because I used it some time ago to make homemade sanitizer HERE
Needless to say, today after lunch we all enjoyed it, and I thought of preparing some bottles to give as Christmas gifts, it’s a scrumptious idea that is sure to be appreciated.
For those who don’t love chocolate, they can always opt for other types of liqueurs and I’ve made a few here.
