- 1 bar dark chocolate
Instructions
- Assemble 35 large, sturdy, organic rose petals. Rinse them with cold water and pat them dry with paper towels.
- Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Optional: Dip rose petals in sugar.
- Melt chocolate in a heat-safe dish in the microwave at 50% power for 1-2 minutes, stirring every 30 seconds, until melted and smooth.
- Dip 3/4 of each rose petal into the melted chocolate.
- Place the chocolate-dipped petals onto the parchment-lined baking sheet.
- Freeze the baking sheet for 30 minutes, or up to 5 hours, until the chocolate is firm and chilled.
- Serve the dark chocolate rose petals straight from the freezer on a chilled plate.
- Alternatively, use the petals as a topping for ice cream and serve immediately.
Notes
- Use only food-safe roses; avoid pesticide-treated flowers.
- For a richer flavor, use high-quality dark chocolate with a high percentage of cacao.
