I originally tried the Chocolatini from the recipe on Bailey's website, which calls for 2 oz Bailey's and 1/4 oz each vodka and Godiva, but it had too heavy for my tastes. Since I enjoyed the flavor combination but wanted less cream I've upped the vodka and cut the Irish cream in this version. It is a very yummy cocktail, a great dessert "Martini" and has the potential to become one of your new favorites. Add shaved chocolate on the top or rim the glass with cocoa for a special touch in this chocolate cocktail.

I have tried this in a local lounge..., Member artguylarry

It was basically made according to this recipe but with two minor variations: they used a chocolate vodka in place of the plain vodka and added cherry rum. Garnished with 2 maraschino cherries, it was more of a ""black forest"" martini, but HEAVENLY. I could bathe in it (but I won't).
