I want Prunes and chocolate recipes please

[ivykaty44]

Or any prunes recipe that you can recommend

Thank you

anyone

throw the prunes in the bin, eat the chocolate.

My mum marinades the prunes in armagnac, then semi melts decent vanilla ice cream, mixes it all up and re freezes. Kind of an upmarket rum and raisin ice cream, but it does taste nice.

How about
