Instructions
Prepare your glass by drizzling the inside with chocolate syrup and caramel syrup. Swirl the syrups gently around the glass to create a decorative pattern, then place the glass in the freezer to chill.
In a cocktail shaker, combine the chocolate liqueur, caramel vodka, hazelnut liqueur, and heavy cream.
Add the crushed ice to the shaker and secure the lid. Shake vigorously for 15-20 seconds until the mixture is well combined and chilled.
Remove the prepared glass from the freezer. Strain the cocktail mixture into the chilled glass.
Top the aperitif with a dollop of whipped cream.
Garnish with chocolate shavings or crushed nuts, if desired. For an extra touch, place a mini candy bar on the rim of the glass or float it on top of the whipped cream.
Serve immediately and enjoy your indulgent Candy Bar Aperitif!
