300 g prunes
250 g of extra-dark chocolate (min. 70%)
1 / 2 l water
1 tablespoon of orange flower water
1 tspn. vanilla extract
Optional: 1 / 2 tspn agar agar powder, goji berries
Preparation
- In a saucepan, combine the prunes, water, orange flower water and vanilla extract. Bring to a boil and let simmer for 15 to 25 minutes. Remove the stones, reduce to a purée. If the cream is too liquid, add the agar agar powder, and simmer 30 seconds. Cool.
- In a bain-marie, melt 90 grams of chocolate. Spread on a cutting board covered with baking paper. Let harden.
- Using a small spoon, place forty small piles of the prune mixture on the chocolate, as evenly as possible.
- In the bain-marie, melt the remaining 160g of chocolate. Using a spoon, completely coat the prune mixture. Top each with a goji berry. Let harden.
- With a knife, separate each bite. Enjoy.

mmm these look good - btw I made the polenta cups you posted about last week (but I had a pea and bean puree in mine) - most delicious and such a great idea - thanks again for the idea - have posted about it yesterday
i like the taste of prunes! i like them as a snack...
I am so glad these worked out, even if I did first suggest a tspn of coffee vanilla! :p
I'm a bit iffy about Sweet William's "milk" chocolate too, a few pces are ok but more than that leaves a weird taste in my mouth. But their white chocolate = win!
Oohhh, thanks for the link! I may try these - they look and sound great.
