This dish was good but they need to tell you how much Grand Marnier to put in. My boyfriend picked up 4 of those mini ones to equal up to 1 cup. 1 mini bottle was not enough so he added more. They were ok but I agree with bmyers146 about too much of the liqueur flavor. The orange zest on top was also just nasty! I had to force myself to finish. Although it was super easy and I melted the chocolate with heavy cream it was not enough to make the berries and orange liqueur taste better.

This dish did not seem balanced. Occasionally, I would find that perfect bite in my mouth, but it was usually either too much tart, or too much of the liqueur flavor. This dish was incredibly easy, but I would not make it again.

This dessert was so easy to make and it tasted great! I loved the elegant presentation as well. I served mine in fancy wine glasses, so it looked really nice. The dark chocolate paired nicely with the strawberries. I will be making this again soon. :
