Just in case anyone is in the mood for a sweet treat after mailing in those taxes...I've got just the thing. We all know the soothing effects of chocolate, giving us those good feeling, in-love vibes and what better day to enjoy a special piece of decadent chocolate than today? (Even though
every day is a good day for having those good-feeling-vibes.) I've been obsessed with 90% dark chocolate but you can use whatever percentage of dark chocolate you like. The bee pollen gives it a light sweetness, so keep that in mind. I think this makes a nice gift also for that chocolate lover in your life. Take a deep breath in, exhale, take a bite and enjoy!
- (1) 3.5 oz. 90 % dark chocolate
- 1 tablespoon bee pollen granules
Melt the chocolate in a double broiler or a glass or metal bowl sitting securely in a pot of boiling water. (Please be careful when choosing this method. Use pot holders and don't add too much water into your pot.) Pour out the melted chocolate onto a piece of parchment or wax paper, it will pretty much spread out naturally, you can always help it out by smoothing it out with a spatula. Sprinkle the bee pollen evenly over the chocolate and allow to harden, in a cool pantry or in the refrigerator. Break into pieces. Makes about 3 servings.
What sort of flavor does bee pollen have?
ReplyDeleteIt's like a super concentrated honey but not as sweet and almost medicine like? Does that even make sense? You got to try it, although now it just doesn't sound too enticing, lol. But there is always the chocolate that will make it all the better! ;)
