I mean the proper ones. The ones who finish a meal and think right what's the chocolate situation. The ones who've got a secret stash somewhere.

Dark. Damp. Proper chocolate taste. None of that pale brown nonsense that claims to be chocolate but lies. Baked until it's just right. Not too firm. Not too crumbly.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"ds-markdown-paragraph\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThen we soak it. Just a tiny bit.

Chocolate and cream melted together slowly until they fall in love and become this glossy silky thing that's better than either of them separately. We whip it a bit so it's light but still rich. Then we put it on thick.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"ds-markdown-paragraph\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eBetween the layers? More truffle.

Smooth and glossy. Then chocolate shavings everywhere. Lots of them. Then a drizzle of melted chocolate because we're not holding back.
