Remember the other night when I made a vegan feast for my friend? well this was The Chocolate Course. Yum yum yum yum yum!
I'm working my way through it, I've already shared my favourite- the chocolate coated almond butter stuffed dates here. But I also experimented with chocolate coated fruit! the dried apricots are quite traditional (and oh so yummy) but the grapes were a little new. I think they were a great success and really hope you give them a go too. I'm sure you could chocolate dip them successfully also but I decided to go for less chocolate in an even coating. Can you imagine sweet, juicy, rich, chocolatey natural m&ms? These are amazing.
Chocolate coated Grapes
1/2 bunch of Grapes (red/green/black)
1/4 cup chopped 70% dark chocolate (you need much less than you think!)
Tiny pinch of salt- Chop chocolate
- Melt over a bain marie
- Add a pinch of salt
- Pick grapes off the bunch
- Add to the melted chocolate and stir gently
- Place on non stick paper to set
- Gently remove (depending on the thickness of the chocolate they will be delicate)
- Enjoy!
- (I'm not sure how long they keep, they were so good they were all gone by the end of the night)
Chocolate dipped dried Apricots
24 Dried Apricots
3/4 cup 70% dark chocolate
Tiny pinch of salt
- Chop chocolate
- Melt over a bain marie
- Add a pinch of salt
- Dip in melted chocolate
- Place on non stick paper to set
- Enjoy!
- (These keep well in a tin for at least a week)
I hope you enjoy these too, they're so quick and taste amazing- as long as you use GOOD quality dark chocolate they're not bad for you so you really can have your chocolate and eat it too.
All the best,
