Categories     Dessert

Time 25m

Number Of Ingredients 4

4 ounces chocolate (~1/2 cup in chips; any kind - dark, semi-sweet, vegan, organic etc.)
2 ounces dates (pitted; ~1/2 cup before pitting)
2 ounces nuts (I used equal parts almonds and pecans)
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract (or other flavoring, e.g. coffee, rum, coconut, etc.)

Steps:

  • Place pitted dates in a food processor and whirl until a smooth ball forms. Add nuts and vanilla extract and process until combined.
  • Melt chocolate in the microwave (in 20 second bursts; stirring in between) or on top of a double boiler. If needed, you can add a little vegetable or coconut oil (1 teaspoon at a time) to make it even smoother.
  • Use a brush or stick to spread chocolate around the bottom and walls of a heart mold and tap mold down to smooth out chocolate. Place in the fridge or freezer (faster) to set.
  • Press a little of the filling mixture into each chocolate cavity, but not to the very top. Spread more melted chocolate over the filling and tap again to smooth out. Using a knife or spatula scrape off excess chocolate.
  • Let the chocolates set up fully in the fridge or freezer, before popping them out of the mold.
  • Place in mini paper liners for presentation.

Find yourself a nice decorative box to put these in. It doesn't hurt if it has the word 'love' on it. And then you present these as your gift for Valentine's Day. The flavor profile for these is just perfect: dark chocolate with just a hint of warmth.

Time 50m

Yield 32

Number Of Ingredients 5

½ pound high-quality dark chocolate, chopped
⅛ teaspoon ground dried chipotle pepper
1 pinch salt
½ cup heavy whipping cream
3 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder, or as needed

Steps:

  • Place chocolate into a bowl; add chipotle pepper and salt.
  • Heat cream in a small saucepan over medium-low heat until it comes to a boil. Pour cream over chocolate and let stand for 3 minutes.
  • Stir gently until chocolate mixture is completely smooth. Pour chocolate mixture out onto a sheet of plastic wrap on a work surface. Pick up one edge of the plastic and roll the chocolate into a rough log shape. Continue to roll, wrapping chocolate in the plastic. Refrigerate until chilled and firm, 30 minutes to 1 hour.
  • Place cocoa into a small bowl. Unwrap chocolate and cut in half crosswise; cut each half into halves lengthwise. Roughly cut candy into 1/2-inch square 'stones'. Place the chocolate pieces into the cocoa and toss gently to coat.
