For BSI this week hosted by Reeni at Cinnamon Spice & Everything Nice, my daughter and I made chocolate covered blueberries. To make this delicious dessert, we used a hand-crafted Amano chocolate that I was fortunate to win in the giveaway at The Adventures of Kitchen Girl blog. We sampled the three kinds of chocolate and enjoyed each one. For our chocolate covered blueberries, we chose Jembrana, a rich milk chocolate with flavors of licorice and honey, made with beans from the Southwestern Coast of Bali. We used about an ounce of chocolate to make two snack servings (about 24 blueberries).
We broke the chocolate into pieces, added a tablespoon of cream, and melted it in a double boiler. Then, we put each blueberry on a toothpick and dipped it into our chocolate. We pushed our toothpicks into a styrofoam and put it into the refrigerator to cool. In about half an hour, our chocolate covered blueberries were ready to eat.
