Quick and Easy Dessert - Homemade Chocolate Hearts
This quick and easy dessert recipe idea is perfect for any occasion. Delicious 4-ingredients homemade chocolate hearts to make at home.
Equipment
- Heart silicone mold
Ingredients
- 70 grams vegan white chocolate melted
- 50 grams dark chocolate melted
- 35 ml unflavored coconut oil (melted) Use 20 ml coconut oil for melting the white chocolate and 15 ml for the dark chocolate. Increase or decrease the amount of coconut oil until you achieve a smooth melted chocolate mixture.
- 15 roasted hazelnuts
- ⅛ cup rainbow sprinkles
Instructions
- 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.
- 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.
- 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.
- Once hardened, remove the chocolate hearts from the mold and enjoy them with a cup of coffee with your loved ones.
