COINTREAU CHOCOLATE TRIFLE
Decadent, redolent of oranges & bittersweet chocolate, this Cointreau laced dessert nicely caps an evening with friends. Adjust Cointreau to taste - we've been known to tip a wee dram onto servings once plated!! Thank you Mean Chef for awesome pastry cream recipe Recipezaar #37669)! Time to make includes making pastry cream (make it - it's worth it!). Start 3 hours ahead of serving to make the aforementioned pastry cream - I fast chill in the frezer for 25 minutes with Saran wrap on surface to prevent a skin from forming & once chilled proceed with rest of recipe - goes fast after this step! Bon Appetite!!
