Smash the bar of chocolate in its wrapping then unwrap and put it into a small microwave-safe bowl with the vanilla paste or extract, a small pinch of salt and the milk
I have cooked this several times already, I tried it with my leftover chocolate ganache, cocoa powder, darkchocolate morsels, chocolate squares…they all worked
Despite having already put together a couple of Valentine’s themes over the past month, by sunrise we still had only a vague idea of what we were going to create, with ideas ranging from a cannoli cheesecake to darkchocolate cupcakes
The creamy bechamel and cocktail sauce both deliver distinct flavors, and I like the subtle spicy heat that gradually builds up with the cocktail sauce, just perfect with a cold dark beer
