Sweet Cravings, aren't they the worst especially if your trying to be healthy! It's like you need something sweet and you need it now, what I have found really helpful is to always have something really healthy just waiting for me! Like a bite size blueberry and dark chocolate frozen love heart... YES! How idyllic does that sound? Now I know that chocolate mixed with lumpy bits of fruit doesn't look to appetising and that's why I decided to make them in the shape of hearts, food is always better when it looks cute right?
Now we all know blueberries are super foods and dark chocolate is so good for you when the % of pure cocoa is high and I'm taking 85% - yes a little bitter but mixed with the sweetness of blueberries its delicious and sweet without being naughty!
All Chocolate contains phenylethylamine which the same chemical your brain creates when you feel like you're falling in love. Ahhh! It encourages your brain to release endorphins, so eating dark chocolate will make you feel happier - get ready to fall in love with these little tasty bite sized dreams.
Ingredients
- 200g of Blueberry's
- 1 200g Bar of Dark Chocolate - chose 85% or more if you can
- Clingflim
- Heart cut outs - if not you can just do them in bite sized balls
Start by chopping you blueberries as finely as possible
Make sure you Chocolate is in a microwavable dish and melt it for 90 seconds, stopping and stirring half way through.
When it's melted add the blueberries.
Mixed them well so all the blueberries are coated.
Now using your heart cut out, place the cling film over it and push it down so it fills the heart shape.
Spoon in the mixture until the heart is full
Pull the cling film over the top covering all the surface and twist into a knot.
Now place them in your freezer for 30 minutes.
All you have to do it remove the clingfilm and tuck in!
How cute are they, and they taste amazing!!!
They really are the perfect snack if your having a sugar craving, just make sure you don't eat them all!
Other great options are frozen grapes and strawberries, all you have to do is put them in the freezer for an hour and they are a different alternative to eating them fresh!
Enjoy guys!
I'll keep you posted :)
