Keep chocolates in the refrigerator as they will melt at room temperature.

Try some of these other variations on this recipe:

  • Add a few drops of mint essence to the chocolate to create chocolate-mint.
  • Add ⅛ tsp cayenne pepper with a pinch of sea salt.
  • Use chocolate to drizzle over strawberries or dried fruit.
  • Use chocolate to coat almonds or other nuts and seeds.
