Colourful Surprise Chocolate Gems!

 

No surprise here - I love chocolate!  I. Love. Chocolate.  What I love most about chocolate is the variety of flavours and fillings.  There is something for everyone. I made these surprise chocolate gems to fill my Box of Chocolates Cake. I think they look lovely inside the luxurious purple box, and I think they taste even better!

Prepare Eggless Cookie Dough, and Prepare Candy

Chop the Oreo cookies into small pieces. Roll your chilled eggless cookie dough into little balls, and trim the strawberry marshmallows with scissors. Trim and cut your cake scraps into small cubes, or use a piping tip to cut small rounds.

Melt Chocolate

Melt the candy melts in the microwave in short 20 second increments, stirring in between. Fill the disposable piping bags with each colour of chocolate.  

Fill Chocolate Molds

Lay out your clean and dry chocolate molds. Begin by piping a ring around the edges of each cavity, letting the chocolate pool down to the bottom. Flip the chocolate mold over and let the excess chocolate drip out.  

Let Chocolate Set

Flip the mold back over place the filling inside and press it down gently.  Allow the chocolate to set slightly to keep your filling in place. Pipe more chocolate into the cavities of the mold until each one is filled.

Fill the Chocolate Gems

Fill the Chocolate Gems as follows:

-White with chopped Oreo cookies

-Light Cocoa with eggless cookie dough balls

-Dark Cocoa with strawberry marshmallows

-Pink with green vanilla cake scraps

-Green with chocolate cake scraps

-Yellow with pink vanilla cake scraps

Scrape Away Excess Chocolate

Use your small offset spatula to scrape away any excess chocolate from each cavity and leave them flush with the surface of the mold.

Let Chill

Allow your chocolates to set for 10-15 minutes in the fridge and then 15 minutes at room temperature. Turn the mold over and pop out the chocolates.

Trim Away Chocolate

Use a sharp knife to trim away any excess chocolate at the bottom of each gem.

Brush on Lustre

Brush luster dusts in different patterns and have fun decorating these chocolates!

Congratulations!
