These are little cups of yummy goodness. You can use any kind of liqueur you would like, and even experiment with the different kinds of cocoa that are out there. Enjoy! Update: Made this last night with Amaretto. OMG! It was so delicious! You got to try it!

Time 1h30m

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 pkg knox unflavored gelatin (about 2 tsp.)
2 Tbsp cold water
1/4 c boiling water
1/2 c sugar
4 Tbsp cocoa powder (i used ghirardelli)
1-1/2 c heavy cream, very cold
1/2 c (chilled) raspberry liqueur (i used chambord)
1 tsp vanilla
