Making Chocolates

Sonya took a chocolate making class at the American Women's Club, so we had to try it at home!  First day of Spring Break and we headed to the kitchen to give it a try...

Seems the chocolatier who taught the class made it look much easier than it is (it was a watch and learn class....), so our didn't turn out looking so pretty, but they sure tasted great!  Guess the best part was learning which kinds of chocolate to use to make it all taste the best.  We tried several different flavorings - vanilla, almond, specaloos spice, peanut butter, cinnamon, and plain chocolates.  They all tasted fabulous and we each have different favorites so I guess we will be making more again sometime. 

We didn't put any pictures of the final products here, but we took these pictures of us working on cleaning up the mess we made....
