Oh my....this was heavenly! It was so easy to prepare and I think the chocolate and orange go well together. This reminded me of those chocolate oranges that come out around the holiday's. So rich and delicious. Recipe was perfect and I wouldn't change a thing!! Thank's for sharing! Made for spring PAC '07. -
Very, very nice dessert, & so easy to prepare! Followed directions exactly, then garnished each dish with a little bit of orange zest [A friend of mine recently got me the greatest zester that produces the THINNEST curls of zest.]! Definitely a recipe to keep on makin'!! Thanks for posting it!
