Chilled Chocolate Souffle with Vanilla Sauce - We do believe about one quote that said: everything good if it is made of chocolate! Things are getting better with chocolate anyway, just like what happen to Bradley and Sarah, a lovely couple who work with us in our kitchen base and office. Recently they both were argue upon something and their relationship was in jeopardy. One good thing happen when suddenly Bradley went out for some minutes and going back wearing an apron and start making one delicious Chilled Chocolate Souffle with Vanilla Sauce which is later given to Sarah to make up. Well, we guess that chocolate is one best way to say sorry effectively more than any words we can say. And yes, we are glad to share how Bradley make that cold chocolate soufflé.
