Chocolate & Coffe Mocha sweethearts












I think to make a last Valentine Post when I saw these chocolate and mocha sweethearts, look nice and are really delicious.
The dough is like a brownie.

Originally they were only cover with the chocolate but I love strawberries and think will be nice with them, so here are the last Valentine recipe.
Hope you enjoy:)

Corazones de chocolate y mocha














Realmente no había pensado en hacer más recetas de San valentín en realidad hice solo una pero cuando vi estos corazones    de chocolate me encantaron.

La masa es como un brownie y originalmente venian solo cubiertos con chocolate pero me pareció y a la Espe tambien que era bueno colocarle algo y como me encantan las frutillas, les pusimos un pedazo de frutilla y unas hojitas de menta.
Quedan muy buenos.
Así que esta es la ultima receta de san Valentín por ahora.

Está basado en una receta de Kraft foods.


Ingredientes

4 cuadrados de chocolate sin azúcar
(para derretir)
3/4 taza de mantequilla or margarina
2 tazas de azúcar o splenda
(esto es porque lleva café si quieren le colocan menos pero el café es mas amargo)
4 huevos
1 cucharadita de vainilla
1 taza de harina
1/2 taza de café instantáneo
(sabor tipo mocha u otro)
6 cuadrados de chocolate para cubrir los corazones
Preparación


Prender el horno a 180°c

Preparar un molde con aluza foil y aceitar o enmantequillar.
Yo usé un molde rectangular alargado
En el microondas derretir en un bol o jarro apto para el microondas el chocolate con la mantequilla.
Poner en potencia alta y calentar por 2 minutos o hasta que el chocolate esté derretido.
Agregar el azúcar. Unir bien.
Agregar los huevos de a uno y la vainilla.
Unir bien.
Agregar la harina y el café instantáneo.
Mezclar bien, es una masa húmeda porque es como de brownie.
Vaciar la mezcla en el molde  alargado.
Llevar a horno por unos 30 a 35 minutos no más recuerden que la masa debe estar un poco húmeda como los brownies.
Probar con un palito si está lista.
Retirar del horno y dejar enfriar completamente.
Cortar la masa lista con un corta galletas en forma de corazón, los pedazos que queden se pueden comer despues como snack.
Derretir el otro chocolate ya sea baño maría o en microondas.
Con este chocolate cubrir los corazones. adornar con pedazos de frutillas y hojas de menta.
Dejar enfriar en el refrigerador hasta que el chocolate esté firme.

  1. As I was saying on Betsy's blog a few days ago, I think chocolate and strawberries is a very sexy combination, especially with some champagne to wash them down. A great choice for Valentine's Day!

  8. These are lovely Gloria. I'm sure anyone would feel special to get one...and get to eat it too.
    I just posted something that tasted like brownie for Valentine's day a couple of hours ago (there's a video of my son just for you also), and I'm posting a second dessert Monday. You can't have just one option for something sweet to make for someone sweet. <3

  57. You lucky lucky thing! Sounds like such a fun experience. I'd love a posh ice cream maker but I do have a little Kenwood one where you freeze the bowl - obviously it's not as convenient but it does work very well and it makes some gorgeous ice cream. You'll never want to go back to the shop bought stuff! coffee cocktails
