UPDATE from Jenn:
So as I’ve mentioned, I’m happily married and have children but this recipe still makes me blush to talk about publicly. Until now. So here’s my funny story…
My sweet mama is a faithful follower of our site and recipes. She’s a fantastic supporter and encouragement as Beth and I work on this oily business. But when she mentioned to me that she LOVES our Chocolate Body Paint recipe, I wanted to crawl in a hole. C’mon. It’s my MOM.
Then she giggled and clarified that she loves this recipe to make chocolate covered strawberries. Imagine my relief. 😉
So feel free to use this recipe as written or drizzle it over fruit. Either way, I probably don’t need to hear more.
