Introduction

This is a bit of a fiddly recipe, relying on the simultaneous creation of two separate batters, but the result is worth it in the end. Creamy milk chocolate gets swirled with a rich, deep bittersweet batter for a subtle but delicious contrast. For the epitome of decadence you can frost them with white chocolate icing!
