Can you use frozen Brussels that have been thawed?
Hi Sheila, I wouldn’t, you’ll have a tough time getting the chocolate to stick. Hope this helps?
Would parcooking or blanch/shocking the Brussels sprouts be okay?
Hi Cocoa Chip, this is meant to be an April Fool’s joke. I’m afraid if there is any moisture the chocolate will not stick, so I would not recommend cooking or blanching them.
