Ingredients

Units Scale
  • 1 block of dark chocolate
  • 1/2 cup natural organic peanut butter
  • 1 heart-shaped ice-cube tray ((I got mine from Ikea))

Instructions

  1. Temper the dark chocolate over low heat until melted.
  2. Fill your ice-cube cups with a teaspoon full of melted chocolate, then use a small spoon or pastry brush to paint the chocolate up the sides of the cup to the top.
  3. Once all of the cups have been lined with chocolate, place them in the freezer for around 5 minutes, or until they have hardened.
  4. Remove from the freezer and place 1/2 teaspoon of natural peanut (I like to add a little celtic sea salt here) or sun-butter into the centre of each chocolate. Top each chocolate with 1 tablespoon of chocolate mixture and leave to set in the fridge or freezer for approximately 30 minutes.
  5. Instead of tempering a store-bought chocolate, you can make your own

Notes

The most easiest way to make these is using your favourite variety of quality dark chocolate. I personally love brands like AlterEco, Loving Earth and Pana Chocolate. For this recipe, always pick a plain variety.
