  • Notes:

    Let’s practice adapting this recipe to fit our diet. Regular chocolate chips contain sugar, so use unsweetened chocolate instead, and sweeten with stevia or xylitol. Avoid the liqueur, because it is sugar. The name rhymes with panache, with good reason. What could be more sophisticated than the glossy sheen of a perfectly coated chocolate confection, or the je ne sais quoi of an artfully drizzled design? Flavor this rich chocolate concoction with anything from vanilla extract to flavored liqueurs, such as hazelnut, raspberry, or Grand Marnier.
