Ingredients
1½ ounces Godiva chocolate liqueur
1 ounce creme de cacao
2 ounces half & half
½ ounce Luxardo maraschino liqueur
Ice for shaking
1 maraschino cherry or chocolate-covered maraschino marshmallow pop for garnish
Directions
Fill a cocktail shaker halfway with ice.

Secure the shaker lid and shake vigorously for about 10-15 seconds until well chilled and combined.
Strain the mixture into a chilled martini glass.
Garnish with a maraschino cherry or chocolate-covered maraschino marshmallow pop placed on the rim or in the drink. Serve immediately.
Comments
Every ingredient is stocked at Harris Teeter, Food Lion, Walmart, or ALDI liquor sections, making this a zero-trip cocktail for anyone with basic spirits on hand. At roughly $3 to $4 per drink in premium liqueurs, it's a special-occasion sipper rather than a weeknight pour, but the cost is honest and the five-minute claim is accurate for someone with the bottles already open. The real caveat is that this is a single-serving recipe, so batch cocktails for company require multiplying the proportions by hand, and the drink doesn't keep—it's a same-night consumption only. It's a perfect Charlotte date-night or dessert-cocktail choice if you're already stocked, but it's not a recipe that teaches you anything or feeds a family.
