Red Wine-Filled Chocolates [Vegan, Gluten-Free]
I'm sure your doctor will put this in your diet stroke protocol, except use dark chocolate. For all the benefits of dark chocolate in these 7 posts and these 56 on red wine. If your doctor hasn't anything specific and good to say about red wine and dark chocolate you don't have a doctor, you have a fossil of a doctor, fire them. I would skip the heating of the wine and just drink it direct.
Ingredients
- 16 dates, chopped up
- 3/4 cup red wine
- 1 cup vegan chocolate chips
- 1 tablespoon cocoa powder
- 1 tablespoon coconut oil
Preparation
- Place the dates and the red wine in a small saucepan. Warm the wine
until it’s just hot to the touch and then turn off heat. Allow the dates
to soak for 20 minutes.
- Purée the dates together with the red wine until they’re smooth.
- Stir in the cocoa powder. Allow the mix to cool.
- While the mix is cooling, temper to chocolate chips together with the coconut oil.
- Pour this mixture over the interior walls of the chocolate mold,
coating every crevice. You may need to pour the chocolate back out and
pour it in again to make sure all surfaces are covered. You will still
have chocolate left over to pour over the bottom of the chocolates.
- Allow the chocolate to harden.
- Scoop the date-wine filling into a piping bag or a zip-seal bag. Cut the tip off and pipe the mixture into the prepared molds.
- Allow the filling to firm up a little bit in the refrigerator.
- Pour the remaining chocolate over the bottom of the molds.
- Set them in the refrigerator to firm up before you eat them.
