Ingredients
- 14 ounces marzipan (400g)
- 7 ounces dark chocolate (200g)
- 3 ounces white chocolate (85g)
Instructions
- Place a wire rack over a baking sheet lined with a piece of baking parchment paper, a silpat or wax paper.
- Roll equal-sized tablespoonfuls of the marzipan into balls, I use a melon-baller, and place them onto the wire rack.
- Melt the dark chocolate in a microwave for 1 minute, stir and if it isn’t melted, then heat again in 20 second bursts until smooth. Alternatively, melt the dark chocolate in a heatproof bowl over a pan of simmer water (ensure the bottom of the bowl doesn’t touch the water).
- Spoon the melted dark chocolate over the marzipan balls, tilting gently as necessary with a fork or toothpick, so they’re completely coated. Transfer to the fridge (keep the marzipan chocolates on the wire rack) to set for 10 minutes.
- Melt the white chocolate, then add to a piping bag with a very small tip, or use a spoon.
- Drizzle over the chocolates, then top with any sprinkles.
- Store in an airtight container for up to 3 weeks.
Notes
- If the chocolate is too thick and isn’t flowing smoothly, add a teaspoon of coconut oil to thin it out.
- If your marzipan has been sitting out for a while and has become sticky, put it in the fridge for about 15 minutes so it will be easier to work with.
- When melting the chocolate, make sure you take care not to put the bowl too close to the hot water in a double boiler.
- If using the microwave to melt chocolate, be sure to stir it every 20 seconds thoroughly to prevent it from burning.
- Instead of white chocolate drizzle, you could top the still-wet dark chocolate with edible glitter, chopped pistachios or sprinkles.
