This Friday (7) is celebrated the International Chocolate Day . The product that originated with the Mayan and Aztec peoples, pioneers in the cultivation of cocoa, reached the Europe at the beginning of the 15th century.

barbecue dessert

Ingredients:

8 french breads
1 can of cream
8 slices of cheese
2 bars of your favorite chocolate

Method of preparation:

Divide the bread in half and add a slice of cheese to each. Add the chocolate bar on top and place on the grill over low heat (around 8 seconds). The trick is to muffle it with a mold and leave it there until the cheese and chocolate melt.

In that time the bread will be crispy too.

For Calda:

Combine 1 bar of chocolate with 1 can of cream. Microwave for approximately two minutes on medium power and mix well until smooth. In case it doesn’t melt, take it for a few more minutes until the chocolate mixes well.

Serve still hot with this syrup on top.
