Assembly

  • Put a portion of chocolate noodle on a serving plate, garnish with fresh raspberry and grated white chocolate with sauces on the side: the sauce ratio maybe different depend on personal taste. 
  • You may put 1/4 cup raspberry sauce to a serving plate, add 1/4 chocolate pappardelle in the center atop of the sauce.  Use a spoon drop vanilla sauce around the noodle atop of the raspberry sauce.  Then use a stick draw a line through the center of the vanilla sauce.  Place fresh raspberry atop noodles and grate some white chocolate over the noodles.  Enjoy

*Note:
 The noodle taste like just regular noodle with a hint of chocolate.  To my opinion,  not enough chocolate flavor to be my favorite dessert. Next time, I may learn how to make the noodles sweeter and more chocolate flavor or may coat the noodles with chocolate glaze?
