SWEET FALLEN ANGEL COCKTAIL
Steps:
- For the mint lime simple syrup: Place a small saucepot over medium heat. Pour in the sugar, lime juice and 1/2 cup water. Add the mint and simmer until the sugar is dissolved, 3 to 5 minutes. Turn off the heat and cool completely, then remove and discard the mint. This can be stored in airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks.
- For the cocktail: Fill 4 Collins glasses with ice to chill.
- Fill a cocktail shaker with ice, then add the gin, lime juice and 1/4 cup mint lime simple syrup. Shake vigorously and strain over the ice in the chilled Collins glasses. Slowly pour 1/2 teaspoon grenadine on top of each cocktail, then divide the club soda on top of each. Garnish with fresh mint leaves and lime wedges. Serve immediately.
FALLEN ANGEL
One version of the Fallen Angel is made using creme de menthe but this version using blue curacao is more suited to my tastes.

Tips:
- Use high-quality chocolate: The chocolate is the star of this recipe, so it's important to use a good quality one. Look for chocolate with a high cocoa content (70% or higher) and a smooth, rich flavor.
- Don't overmix the batter: Overmixing the batter will make the cakes tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
- Chill the batter before baking: Chilling the batter will help the cakes to rise evenly and prevent them from spreading too much.
- Bake the cakes until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean: Don't overbake the cakes, or they will be dry.
- Let the cakes cool completely before frosting them: This will help to prevent the frosting from melting.
- Use a whipped cream frosting: A whipped cream frosting is light and fluffy, and it pairs perfectly with the chocolate cakes.
- Decorate the cakes with your favorite toppings: You can use chocolate chips, sprinkles, or even fresh fruit to decorate the cakes.
Conclusion:
Fallen angel cakes are a delicious and elegant dessert that are perfect for any occasion. They're easy to make and can be customized to your liking. With their rich chocolate flavor and fluffy whipped cream frosting, these cakes are sure to be a hit with everyone who tries them.
