Personal Notes:
The Cocoa Tree chocolatier appeared in Downtown Franklin soon after the movie Chocolat was released. It was the perfect example of life imitating art. This recipe is the essence of that movie, and quite delicious.
I made it for one of Ethan's anthropology classes at the College of Charleston, and it's no wonder he got an "A" on that project :)
