Love Bark: Rose + Chocolate
YIELD: 6
Chocolate bark with rose petals.
PREP TIME - 5 minutes
COOK TIME -5 minutes
TOTAL TIME - 10 minutes
Ingredients
• 7 ounces chopped white chocolate (real white chocolate)
• 3 ounces chopped dark chocolate
• 1/4 teaspoon rose water
1 tablespoon dried rose petals (use ones marked 'edible')
Instructions
1. Line a small sheet pan with parchment paper.
2. Place the white chocolate in a microwave-safe bowl, and microwave on 50% power for
30 seconds. Stir, and repeat until the chocolate is almost all the way melted. Stir to melt thoroughly. It takes me 3 pulses, or 1:30 minutes.
3. Spread the white chocolate onto the sheet pan in a 8 x 6" rectangle.
4. Immediately (before the white chocolate can
harden), melt the dark chocolate using the
same method.
5. On the dark chocolate is fully melted, very
quickly, stir in the rose water. Be quick--if you let it set, the rose water will solidify the chocolate!
6. Very quickly dot the dark chocolate on top of
the white chocolate.
7. Sprinkle edible rose petals on top.
8. Refrigerate for 20 minutes to set the
