Recipe: Chocolate Fondant served with Chilli Nut Ice Cream

Featured today on the Good Things Guy recipe guide: Chocolate Fondant served with Chilli Nut Ice Cream

As served for the dessert course on the semi-final round of #MKRSA.

Since being on My Kitchen Rules South Africa #MKRSA my love for food has been reignited and my love for sharing good food, even more so.

I have added a recipe section to GoodThingsGuy where I will be bringing you delicious recipes to try for yourself!

Today, we’re featuring our Chocolate Fondant served with Chilli Nut Ice Cream that received a 10 out of 10 from all the judges around the table. Chocolate Fondants are pretty difficult to make but practice makes perfect (and your most important ingredient are love, passion & patience).

We’ve also updated the original chilli chocolate ice cream to a chilli vanilla as it pairs much better. We hope you enjoy:

Difficulty: Medium/Hard
