Ah, Chocolate! My favorite food! It soothes my soul, calms my spirit, indulges me, takes my mouth on an exotic vacation, and I'd probably wear it if I could.
There's something spiritual about my love of chocolate. So it seems totally appropriate that Body & Soul has a wonderful chocolate recipe on their website. I want to share this recipe with you. Like Emeril, it kicks things up a notch.
Linking to the recipe didn't work. Apparently a login process took place when I clicked on my email. Copy and paste doesn't space quite the way I want but I'm not experienced enough with html to change the table structure. Please forgive the lengthy scroll and Enjoy!

Chocolate! Yes! Chocolate is the true source of all goodness! (Not that I'm an idolator or anything.)
Also, I wish I had a bathtub like that.
Yes, that does look romantic doesn't it?! There was one like it in the suite I stayed in on my honeymoon. In addition to her box of chocolates I would add a cup of hot cocoa with Irish Cream and a huge bowl of chocolate ice cream. Then, perhaps some candles and a good book too. Decadent living here we come!
Peace and Joy!
