Instructions:

  1. Melt the Chocolate: Use a double boiler method to melt the dark chocolate. Ensure the water in the pan does not touch the bowl containing the chocolate. Stir gently until smooth and fully melted.
  2. Heat the Cream: In a separate saucepan, heat the heavy cream until it is almost boiling. Be careful not to let it boil.
  3. Combine Cream and Vanilla: Pour the hot cream over the melted chocolate, add EMAS Vanilla Extract or EMAS Vanilla Bean Paste, and a pinch of salt. Stir until all ingredients are well combined and the mixture is smooth.
  4. Cool the Mixture: Pour the chocolate mixture into a mold or a tray lined with parchment paper. Use a spatula to smooth the surface.
  5. Add Toppings: If desired, sprinkle the surface of the chocolate with coarse sea salt, chopped nuts, or dried fruit for added texture and flavor.
  6. Chill: Place the chocolate in the refrigerator for several hours or until it is completely set.
  7. Serve: Remove the chocolate from the mold, cut it into pieces as desired, and serve as a luxurious snack or a special gift for loved ones.
