Too Old for Ramen

Here is some more enticement to try my recipe.  If you like it, follow our blog! Recipe follows this post on   toooldforramen.tumblr.com

This recipe is influenced by an Aztec beverage called “Chocolatl”. It was flavored with rich chocolate, fragrant cinnamon, and spicy chili peppers.  It was meant to be drunk warm. I have created a chocolatl-like curd to top a buttery shortbread tart crust. This dessert is excellent served warm or at room temperature.

I am so excited at how well this turned out, that I wanted to share it right away.  

I have been craving some Mexican hot chocolate lately, but something about 100,000,000 degree weather makes me want to avoid hot beverages. I created the next best thing: Chocolatl Cookie Tarts! They are like lemon bars but with spicy,gooey, wonderful chocolate instead of lemon curd. I created a Mexican style hot chocolate “curd” and baked it with a shortbread base. WOW. Muy Delicioso!  Now all I need is a cold glass of milk.

Recipe to come very soon.
