Chocolate Strawberry Hearts Recipe.
You can make as many or as few of these as you want, so there are no set quantities of ingredients. Find yourself a high-quality dark chocolate (look for 85% cacao or above), and try your hand at a batch: they’re easy to make, and perfect to give a loved one or a friend. Tempt your friends with a plate to share, and watch the tacky drugstore candy disappear into the background, without missing the spirit of the celebration or the chance to enjoy some sweetness in every sense of the word.
