Is it possible to make homemade chocolate liqueur? Yes indeed! And it only takes 15 minutes. Chocolate liqueur can be consumed straight, as an after dinner drink rather than as aperitif. It can be used in mixed drinks and in desserts, especially in dessert sauces, cakes and truffles. 
I love making edible gifts for birthdays. I put myself into the effort so the gift has my heart and my love. Success is always guaranteed. This liqueur is perfect for anyone for any occasion.

Can this be done without using cream?

Does it need to be refrigerated?
Just made it! So easy and the bit I tasted off the funnel tasted soooo yum. Cant wait to see if it’s as thick as I like once it cools
