    Time needed: 40 minutes.

    How to make this quick and easy dessert?

    1. Melt the chocolate

      First, make a double boiler. Fill a small pot with about ½ of water and heat over low-medium heat. The water should steam but not boil. Then, put a bowl with the chocolate and coconut oil on top of the pot. So the bowl will rest inside the pot but its bottom should not touch the bottom of the pot. Gently stir all the way until the chocolate is smooth and melted. Melt two types of chocolate in different bowls so they do not mix thus preserving their pure color.

    2. Pour the chocolate into a silicone mold

      Generously fill the bottom of each heart of the silicone mold with some rainbow sprinkles. Pour first white chocolate, put one hazelnut in the center of each heart, then pour melted dark chocolate. I use a small spoon to fill the heart molds. These molds are flimsy, so it would be a good idea to put them on a pan or tray that fits your freezer. To achieve the perfect chocolate consistency, feel free to add or subtract coconut oil. If the chocolate is too thick and not quite shiny add more coconut oil. In that way, it will be easier to pour it into the candy silicone mold.



    3. Freeze chocolate hearts

      Put the silicone mold with melted chocolate to set in a freezer for at least 30 minutes. Or wait until hardened. That will depend on the temperature of your freezer.



    4. Enjoy your homemade chocolate hearts

      Once hardened, remove the chocolate hearts from the mold and enjoy them with a cup of coffee with your loved ones.

    Ingredients for homemade chocolate hearts

    Few ingredients for quick and easy dessert recipe - chocolate hearts

    You'll only need a few ingredients to make this no-bake, homemade quick and dessert - delicious chocolate hearts:

    • High-quality vegan chocolate (dark and white)

    How do you melt dark chocolate at home?

    Chop or break the chocolate into small, even pieces. Add the coconut oil. Melt the chocolate over low-medium heat using a double boiler because it burns easily. Stir it frequently until it is completely smooth and fully melted. Be sure that your work utensils are completely dry before melting the chocolate. Never expose melted chocolate to water because it will cause the chocolate to seize.

    How long do chocolate hearts last?

    You can keep chocolate hearts in a sealed container, in the fridge, for about a week. Depending on the type of chocolate and the amount of coconut oil you use these chocolate hearts can be quite melty if you keep them at room temperature. So it's better to keep it refrigerated.
