Description

Indulge in these exquisite chocolate-covered buttercreams, a delightful treat that balances rich flavors and textures. Each buttercream begins with a base of creamy butter, whipped to airy perfection with a touch of sweetener and a hint of salt. The result is a light and fluffy buttercream, smooth and decadent, with a delicate balance of sweet and savory.

The buttercream is then piped into charming little dots, each one a promise of the deliciousness to come. A brief stint in the freezer firms them up, preparing them for their luxurious coating. These frozen buttercream drops are then enrobed in a generous layer of dark chocolate, creating a delightful contrast between the cool, creamy interior and the rich, intense chocolate exterior.

Whether enjoyed straight from the freezer for an icy bite or kept in the fridge for a slightly softer consistency, these chocolate-covered buttercreams are a true pleasure. The cold intensifies the flavors, while the slight chill offers a refreshing sensation. Each bite is a symphony of textures, from the crisp snap of the chocolate to the smooth melt of the buttercream.

For an extra layer of flavor, consider infusing the buttercream with your favorite extracts. A touch of mint can add a refreshing coolness, while banana or rum extract can impart a warm, comforting note. The possibilities are endless, allowing you to customize these treats to your exact preferences.

These chocolate-covered buttercreams are perfect for satisfying sweet cravings while offering a delightful and sophisticated dessert experience. The combination of rich dark chocolate and creamy buttercream is a timeless classic, elevated by the delicate balance of flavors and textures.

    1 stick

    1 cup
    3.
    Dark Chocolate

    3-½ ounce
    4.
    Coconut Oil
    Coconut Oil
    ½ tablespoon

Instructions

    1.
    Start with room temperature butter. Place the butter in the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with a paddle attachment. Add the powdered sweetener and blend on medium-high speed until light and fluffy. The creaming process will take several minutes, at least 4-5 minutes. Scrape down the bowl a couple of times to ensure the entire mixture is getting incorporated.
    2.
    Place the whipped buttercream in a medium-sized piping bag fitted with a round piping tip. Pipe 25 evenly spaced round dots of buttercream onto a parchment piece that is lining a baking sheet.
    3.
    Place the baking sheet in the freezer and chill until firm, preferably overnight or several hours. Once they are firm enough to pick up with your fingers, they can be dipped in chocolate. Keep them in the freezer until the chocolate is ready to go.
    4.
    Break the chocolate into smaller pieces and place in a small microwave-safe bowl. Add the coconut oil—microwave on high for one minute. Stir the chocolate. Melt in the microwave for another 30 seconds or so until the chocolate is fully melted. If using very dark chocolate, feel free to add sweetener at this point and taste it to make sure it is sweet enough for your taste. Allow the chocolate to cool before dipping the frozen buttercream into it, but do not allow it to cool so much it hardens again.
    5.
    Dip each buttercream dot into the melted chocolate using a fork, tap each off, allowing the chocolate to drip through the fork, and place it back onto the baking sheet. Once they are all dipped, place them all back in the freezer until solid.
