Drum roll please...

Remember when we first announced the Chocolate Adventure Recipe Contest way back in August? It was a joint venture between the website TuttiFoodie.com and Scharffen Berger Chocolate. The contest is over and the winners have been announced here.

Lisa from TuttiFoodie was kind enough to share one of the runner up’s recipes for a drink that we think would be perfect to serve after dinner on Valentine’s Day. A sweet finish to a romantic meal. Congratulations to ‘Ginger Delight’s’ creator, Karen Ariele Imm from Maryland.

GINGER DELIGHT

½ c Sweetened condensed milk

1oz. Scharffen Berger 62% semisweet chocolate

1/8t Ground ginger

12oz. Cold Guinness Brand Stout

Shaved chocolate (for garnish)

Method:

In a small, heavy-bottom sauce pan, over low heat, melt sweetened condensed milk and chocolate. Remove from heat and whisk in ginger. Place chocolate mixture into a medium-sized bowl. Set aside to let cool (between 5 and 10 minutes). Pour Guinness over the chocolate mixture and stir until well combined. Divide equally into two glasses. Garnish with shaved chocolate and serve.
