Critical Success Points
- • Use sweetened condensed milk – it provides essential sweetness and body; evaporated milk will make the liqueur too thin.
- • Sift cocoa powder to avoid gritty texture.
- • Blend thoroughly to achieve a smooth, emulsified cream.
Safety Warnings
- • Alcohol is flammable – keep away from open flames.
- • Do not serve to anyone under the legal drinking age.
- • If the liqueur develops an off smell or mold, discard it.
