CHOCOLATE CARAMEL MARTINI

You really need a hit of rich caramel and chocolate but you also want a cocktail? Don't reach for a candy bar, reach for a cocktail shaker! This Chocolate Caramel Martini is a liquid candy bar, loaded with chocolate and full of rich, buttery caramel flavor but it has the added benefit of having booze.

The fun part of this cocktail is the chocolate syrup swirl inside the bowl of the glass.  It not only looks pretty but it slowly adds a little more chocolate to each sip.
