Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 100 grams cocoa powder
- 120 milliliters low-fat milk
- 50 grams honey
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 teaspoon gelatin
- 2 tablespoons water
- 1 pinch sea salt
Instructions
In a small bowl, sprinkle gelatin over 2 tablespoons of cold water and let it sit for about 5 minutes to bloom.
In a small saucepan, combine cocoa powder, low-fat milk, honey, vanilla extract, and a pinch of sea salt.
Place the saucepan over medium heat and whisk the mixture continuously until it starts to slightly simmer, making sure all ingredients are fully combined.
Remove the saucepan from the heat and add the bloomed gelatin to the mixture, stirring until it dissolves completely.
Pour the chocolate mixture into silicone egg molds, tapping gently to remove any air bubbles.
Refrigerate for 2-3 hours or until the chocolate eggs are fully set and can be easily removed from the molds.
Carefully pop the chocolate eggs out of the molds and serve as a delightful low-fat treat.
