Equipment
- Parchment paper
Ingredients
- 3.5 ounces dark chocolate
- 1 cup fresh blackberries
- Optional toppings: freshly grated orange zest and/or flakey sea salt
Instructions
- Rinse and dry the blackberries
- Roughly chop or break the dark chocolate into pieces, then place in a microwave safe bowl (alternatively you can melt the chocolate in a pan on the stovetop set to low heat, stirring constantly).
- Microwave on high heat for 20 seconds, then stir. Repeat until the chocolate is melted (this should take approximately 1-2 minutes depending on the strength of your microwave). Be sure to stir after 20 seconds each time you heat the chocolate.
- Allow the melted chocolate to cool for 5 minutes.
- Place a piece of parchment paper on a large plate or platter.
- Add the blackberries to the bowl of melted chocolate and gently stir, making sure that all the blackberries are entirely coated in chocolate.
- Use a spoon to scoop out 3-5 blackberries and place them in a little pile on the parchment paper lined plate. Repeat with the rest of the blackberries.
- Sprinkle on optional toppings if desired.
- Place the plate of chocolate blackberries in the fridge for at least 30 minutes to harden before serving.
Notes
- Store the chocolate covered blackberries in the fridge for up to five days.
