2-COLOR DOUBLE LAYER CHOCOLATE BONBONS

I wanted to make some chocolate bonbons, but not any recipe...it had to be with 2 layers and 2 colors, with 2 distinct flavors. Of course I am offering you a completely vegan and completely healthy recipe, but this time it had to be also in a special presentation. The recipe is very simple to make, and you can prepare it in just a few minutes.

One of the layers had to be dark chocolate, so that I could feel the intense, stimulating and slightly bitter taste of cocoa. The other layer had to be with fruit, and I oscillated between lemon and blueberry, but I finally chose blueberry chocolate layer, for its intense burgundy- reddish color, so perfect for some chocolate hearts!

So, for the red layer I used:

• 50 grams blueberries (about 3 tbsp);
• 2 tbsp natural sweetener (you can use agave syrup, maple syrup, inulin, stevia, whatever you like);
• 50-100 ml coconut unrefined oil (just enough to cover and combine all the ingredients);
• optional, if you desire a more sour taste, you can add the juice from ½ a lemon.

Mix everything into a blender and then pour into the desired shape, or in the designated tray, without completely filling the recipient, in order to save the space for the second layer. Put into the refrigerator for about 15 minutes or at least until the composition becomes a bit thicker.

For the dark chocolate layer I used:

• 100 ml unrefined coconut oil;
• 1 tbsp eritritol (you can use any natural sweetener of your choice);
• 2 full tbsp cocoa powder or carob powder

Before pouring the second layer into the tray, make sure the first layer is a bit thicker, not so liquid anymore, so that they don't combine, but not completely solidified either. Then pour this second layer of chocolate, slowly and carefully, until the shapes are filled. Put into the refrigerator again for at least 30 minutes or until it is completely solidified.

This is an intense, concentrated yet refreshing, sophisticated desert, and it so reminds me of  “sour cherry in dark chocolate” taste, but this one is healthier.

May our hearts be as intense as these chocolates!
