I tried making that almost exactly two nights ago w/:

absolut Mandarin
white creme de cacao
grand marnier
cream

I put equal parts vodka and chocolate and it came out tasting like an orange 
tootsie roll and not exactly super tasty. definitely less chocolate. But I 
truly believe it can be made to taste......well good. 
Let me know if you figure it out.
