Surprise your sweetheart with this decadent sugar free spicy chocolate for Valentine’s day.
I wanted to surprise my husband with some spicy chocolate and had a little time this weekend so I made a batch. I could not find my candy heart mold so I made a log of chocolate instead.
I used my chocolate syrup recipe and added a couple of extra ingredients to make it very creamy with a hint of warmth. These beauties are very easy to make and it takes very little time.
