Need Help with a chocolate stain!?
Answers:
I have used a product called M30 (www.m30.com) for years to spot treat stains before washing, and the product has never failed me. Although I've never used it on chocolate, it does list it as a stain it can handle. With my experience of it getting rid of everything from motor oil, tar, grass stains, blood stains, and even ink, i would expect it to get out the chocolate too. The best part is its cheap($1 at my local dollar store).
Hope this helps.

Now that you've already washed it I'm not sure there's much you can do but keep trying Shout. But maybe something to keep in mind: cold water gets fresh chocolate out of clothes. So next time something unfortunate like this happens, try spot washing it with cold water before machine washing it.
Good luck!

try some hydrogen peroxide and dawn mixed together
I was surprised to hear that hot water was recommended for chocolate, not cold -- and here is a link to eHow.com for several other tips on removing chocolate. I especially like the milk one!! Don't know if it will work on chocolate that has already been washed, but -- hey -- you've got nothing to lose!!
