Chef's Tips
Please note that the better quality chocolate you buy the better the sauce will be. And you can use this same method with plain dark or white chocolate. But do not ad brandy with the plain or white chocolate.
This sauce will keep in the fridge for up to 8 days and can be reheated in microwave.
I would not reccomend using brandy if serving to kids. It would not do them any harm but the ritchness of the sauce can be quite overpowering and upset their tunnies.
