How to Make Liquor Filled Chocolates

Melting Chocolate

Take chocolate in a microwave safe bowl preferably glass. Place chocolate bowl in microwave. Microwave chocolate at 20 seconds interval until chocolate is melted. it will take less than a minute. Remove the bowl every 20 seconds and gently mix using a spatula. Mix until all the chocolate is melted. Mix till smooth and set aside.

If you don't have microwave, you can melt chocolate in a double boiler. Place water in a sauce pan, bring it to a boil. Take chopped chocolate in a heat safe bowl, place the chocolate over the sauce pan of simmering water. Make sure the bottom of the bowl doesn't touch the simmering water. Use a spatula to gently mix the chocolate until it is all melted.

Assembling Liquor chocolates

Take a silicone chocolate mould. Spoon the melted chocolate in and spread evenly. Now put this in fridge or freezer and leave to set till chocolate hardens, it will take less than 5 mins. Make sure you get a thick layer of chocolate on the silicon mould. for achieving this You can even do double layer of chocolate coating. Once the first layer hardens, remove the silicon mould from freezer and add some more chocolate and coat again. Pop it back into the freezer to harden.

Liquor filling.

Mix filling ingredients till creamy. You just need a bowl and spoon or whisk to do this. The mixture has to be thick and spoonable. If it is too runny, you can refrigerate the filling for few minutes to harden.

Assembling Liquor Chocolates

Now take your silicon mould from freezer. spoon filling in, don't over fill the mould. Just a tsp of filling would be plenty. Tap the silicon mould gently so the filling is evenly spread. Now spoon more melted chocolate over the filling and spread evenly. if the chocolate is over filled, you can scrape it gently using a spatula or bench scraper. put the mould back in fridge or freezer for 30 mins.

Tips & Tricks

• Use good quality chocolate for this recipe. It enhances the taste of the end product.
• You can use any extract in the filling to make the flavours you like.
• The filling has to be thick for easy filling. if the filling is runny, You can mix the filling and pop it in fridge for few minutes to harden.
• Transfer the filling to a piping bag and snip off the end. This makes the process easy. But you can use a spoon to do the filling too.
• Make sure you take your time to melt the chocolate. Don't melt the chocolate in high temp else the chocolate will seize.
• When melting the chocolate in microwave melt it in 20 second interval else the chocolate may seize.
