Mary Berry handed this deceptively elemental look to the 4 semifinalists successful the "Chocolate" occurrence of Season 3 of PBS's "The Great British Baking Show." It calls for cocoa with a minimum of 36 percent cacao. We went overmuch higher, astatine 70 percent, and appreciated the rich, not-too-sweet dark-chocolate flavor.

If you marque the pastry pick constituent successful advance, you mightiness privation to bladed it retired a small spot with a liqueur of your choice, due to the fact that it volition thicken successful the refrigerator. We chose Cointreau, but Frangelico oregon an amaretto besides would beryllium nice.
