This is the best tortoni recipe I've ever tried. It's so smooth and creamy, and the chocolate flavor is perfect. I will definitely be making this again.

Not as good as I expected. The texture was a bit icy and the flavor was not very rich.

This was my first time making tortoni and it turned out great! I was a little worried about it being too difficult, but it was actually pretty easy. The hardest part was waiting for it to freeze.

I've been making this tortoni for years and it's always a hit. It's so rich and decadent, and the combination of chocolate and nuts is perfect. I love that it can be made ahead of time, too.
