[The Late Night Gourmet]

This looks like more of a chocolate sauce than a chocolate soup. But, that doesn't mean it's not tasty. However, I don't understand that word in parenthesis on the 4th ingredient: I don't think I could be motivated to have more than a few spoonfuls without the proper incentive of that 4th ingredient.

It's not as bad as it looks in the picture, or as it sounds.

Relative made it a few years ago at the West County, for a celebration meal.
