Notes

For best results, use high-quality Belgian chocolate for a rich flavor. Ensure that butter and eggs are at room temperature for better mixing. If you'd like a fun presentation, garnish with fresh berries or a light dusting of powdered sugar. Store wrapped in plastic and in an airtight container at room temperature for up to three days, or refrigerate for longer freshness. Consider individual freezing if you want to enjoy later—just thaw overnight in the fridge before serving.
