As you already know, My family and I are great friends with chocolate. And so what better to cheer up a grey and gloomy day than this heavenly ingredient itself? This is a bit of a made up recipe, with inspiration from a tele chef I think, and really can be customised by anyone.
It's very basic- All you need is a good quality bar of chocolate (dark or milk- whichever you prefer- although dark works best!), salt, flaked almonds, rose petals, a bit of sugar and for decoration some edible gold glitter (optional) If you wanted you could even do a marbled one with milk and dark.
Pre-heat the oven to about 180 degrees Celsius (on fan). Get all your ingredients out to start- you need to be quick to get them onto the chocolate once melted. Line a tray with baking paper. Pop the flaked almond into a tray and sprinkle with sugar. Place into the oven till golden brown, then remove and leave to cool. Melt the chocolate over a pan of boiling water and then smudge it into circular thin shapes onto the pre-lined tray (doesn't matter in they're not perfect!) and then immediately sprinkle with salt, rose petals and the almonds. Put in the fridge for at least 1/2 hour, and then smudge the gold onto them. Serve immediately once they have been taken out of the fridge as they melt super quickly!
This was a marbled batch- Yum! |
warning- very sticky fingers guaranteed!
These were a particular hit with my dad- hope you like them too!
