You will need a small heart-shaped cookie cutter (measuring 1 to 1 1/2 inches across) for this recipe. Look for one in cookware shops or order it by mail. Roll leftover teaspoonfuls of firm chocolate mixture into balls and coat in extra cocoa powder or chopped nuts for quick truffles.8 | ounces milk chocolate , chopped fine |
4 | ounces bittersweet chocolate , chopped fine |
2 | tablespoons unsalted butter |
3/4 | cup heavy cream |
2 | tablespoons cocoa powder |
2. Place chocolates and butter in large heatproof bowl. Bring cream just to boil in small saucepan. Whisk hot cream into chocolate and butter until smooth. Scrape mixture into prepared pan, smooth into even layer, and refrigerate until set, about 1 hour.
3. Cover plate with foil or parchment paper. Using foil overhang as handles, lift chocolate mixture out of pan and transfer to cutting board. Using 1- to 1 1/2-inch heart-shaped cookie cutter, cut and lift out 30 to 35 hearts and place on prepared plate. Sift cocoa powder over hearts.
