1 teaspoon garlic crushed

In the wok, fry the pork in the peanut oil at medium heat.

When half cooked, add the shrimps and garlic and stir.

Add the drained noodles to shrimp mixture.

Add water, vinegar, fish sauce, sugar, shrimp powder, and most of the peanuts.

Sprinkle in white pepper and chili powder.

Toss to combine.

Let it cook on one side (Don't stir; keep checking the underside as if it were a big pancake).

Flip it over as best you can and repeat until nearly cooked, about 5 to 10 minutes.

Add most of the sprouts and scallions.

Stir and cook for another minute.

Turn onto a plate.

Top with the rest of the sprouts, scallions, and peanuts.

I'm not a "dessert person"--(I have to admit the title suckered me in, tho lol)--but THIS recipe IS the real deal. My only suggestion is to "drizzle" the melted chocolate as the last step, not "swirl"--the hot chocolate coagulates too fast on a cool dessert base in order to "swirl".
