How to Make Beautiful Chocolate Disks With Seeds And Fruits
- Melt 6 ounces of dark chocolate and 4 ounces of milk chocolate in a double boiler or microwave-safe bowl. Stir until smooth.
- Stir in 1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon and 1/8 teaspoon ground nutmeg until evenly distributed.
- Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Drop 1 tablespoon of the melted chocolate mixture onto the prepared baking sheet for each disk.
- Use a spatula to gently spread each drop into a thin, even disk. Don't make them too thin, or they may not hold the toppings.
- Sprinkle each disk with 1/4 teaspoon dried cranberries, 1/8 teaspoon poppy seeds, and 1/8 teaspoon sunflower seeds.
- Top with 1/4 teaspoon crushed vanilla baking chips. (Alternatively, see step 8 for a melted vanilla chip variation.)
- For a swirl design (optional): Melt 1 ounce dark chocolate with 1 tablespoon of cream. Dot the melted mixture onto dark chocolate disks and swirl with a toothpick.
- If desired, use colored sprinkles instead of, or in addition to, the other toppings.
- Refrigerate the baking sheet for approximately 2-3 hours, or until the chocolate disks are completely hardened.
Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor
Small additions can make a big impact! Try a sprinkle of fresh herbs, a dash of your favorite spice blend, or a squeeze of citrus just before serving to really enhance the flavors of your dish.
