We had this tonight as a dessert drink and loved it. So good. I used a Malibu Caribbean Rum which really complimented the chocolate flavor. Just loved it. Thanks Made for PAC Spring 2009 :)

This was great! I had to serve it before dinner because we had a lot of recipes to cover, but it was just the right pick me up to get cooking for the world tour. I will definitely make this again. Thanks!

Oh mercy! I'm very sorry that I reduced this recipe to 1 serving. That was NOT enough! I used Captain Morgans spiced rum & some of DH's good cognac (shhhhh ...). And darn the luck - out of milk; only had 1/2 & 1/2. Dessert and after dinner drink all at once. I'll be making more of these puppies! Thanks for posting!
