Chocolate Cake Martini

I was at a pub the other night with a group of friends.. where I ordered my usual Grey Goose Dirty Martini, of course. Yum YUM!!! But, at the end of dinner, when I didn't like any of the desserts, I decided to try one of the most delicious drinks I have ever had in my life - a German Chocolate Caketini (with carmel and coconut rim). I have been on a hunt to find the recipe for the drink b/c I forgot to mark it down that night. If anyone happens to know it, can you let me know... pretty please, with sugar on top?!

However, in my search for the recipe, I ran across this little number that sounds pretty tasty...

3 oz Vanilla Vodka
1/2 oz Frangelico Hazelnut Liqueur
3 oz Creme de Cacao
1 tbsp Sweetened Cocoa Powder
2 Lemon twists

Fill two cocktail glasses with ice water; set aside. Fill a cocktail shaker with ice, add vanilla vodka, creme de cacao, and Frangelico hazelnut liqueur. Shake vigorously. Empty glasses of ice water, and dip edges into a flat dish filled with sweetened cocoa powder. Strain the contents of the cocktail shaker into the 2 cocktail glasses, and add a twist of lemon to each before serving.

Hope you have a great start to the week :)
