I have been craving ambrosia in the worst way.  Since it’s the 4th of July I wanted to go more Patriotic than the standard ambrosia route with pineapples, mandarin oranges and cucka cherries.  And I know some recipes call for heavy cream and sour cream but I wanted simple because I’m officially off for 4 days and want to spend as little time in the kitchen as possible.

*GASP!* “WHAT???  You don’t want to be in the kitchen??? Are you ill???  But we NEED our recipes!”

LOL never fear and no I’m not sick.  I just need a little down time.  However I can’t leave you guys hanging for the 4th so here ya go.

This is my ode to the 4th of July with a twist on your typical Ambrosia – with a hint of chocolate.

“Say what? Chocolate in ambrosia??”

Yup 🙂 And it’s FANTABULOUS!

Enjoy!
