Day 7: A Celebration of Chocolate – Chocolate Tamales from Dos Caminos

The Celebration of Chocolate Month continues — and today, on Day 7 — we add some international flair to a favorite chocolate treat, as we stop at Dos Caminos in Fort Lauderdale. Known for their vibrant atmosphere and modern take on traditional Mexican dishes, we head straight to their dessert menu and check out their Dark Chocolate Tamales — warm, soft chocolate cake, caramel fudge sauce and dulce de leche ice cream combined into one.

Follow us all month long, as we introduce you to some decadent chocolate dishes at local restaurants — we’ve even snagged a few recipes to keep you busy in the kitchen when we could.
