Scale
Ingredients
- 2 1/2 cups pomegranate seeds
- 5.25 ounces (150 grams) high-quality dark chocolate
- 1 tablespoon sea salt
Instructions
- Prepare Pomegranate Base: Distribute a single layer of pomegranate seeds evenly across 12 muffin cups to create the first layer of the bites.
- Melt Chocolate: Place the dark chocolate in a small microwave-safe bowl and heat in short intervals, stirring frequently to prevent burning, until fully melted and smooth.
- Fill Piping Bag: Transfer the melted chocolate into a piping bag or a resealable plastic bag, then carefully snip off a small tip at the end for controlled piping.
- Layer Chocolate and Seeds: Pipe a crisscross pattern of melted chocolate over the pomegranate seeds in each muffin cup. Add another layer of pomegranate seeds on top, followed by more chocolate, then finish with a final layer of pomegranate seeds.
- Add Sea Salt: Sprinkle a small pinch of sea salt evenly over each assembled chocolate and pomegranate bite to enhance the flavors.
- Chill Bites: Refrigerate the bites for at least one hour until the chocolate sets completely. Serve immediately after removing from the fridge.
Notes
- Use high-quality dark chocolate (70% cacao or higher) for the best flavor and health benefits.
- Be careful not to burn the chocolate when microwaving; heat in 20-30 second intervals and stir in between.
- These bites should be stored refrigerated and consumed within 3-4 days for freshness.
- For added texture, you can sprinkle some finely chopped nuts with the sea salt before chilling.
