If you're a chocolate lover, this one's for you! Absolutely awesome! You're going to love it! These look a little rustic and would make great gifts for the holidays or any days! I remember these from a long time ago. They came in a silver foil wrapper, but I can't remember the name, unless it's Big Chunky. I don't know if they still make them or not. This makes 6 servings, but if you make them smaller, you can get more out of the recipe.Cooling time is cooking time.
Ingredients:
4 ounces unsweetened chocolate
1/2 cup maple syrup
1/3 cup raisins
1/4 cup currants
1/2 cup hazelnuts or 1/2 cup almonds, chopped finely
1 teaspoon dark rum or 1 teaspoon vanilla
Directions:
1. In microwave or double boiler, melt chocolate. Add raisins and currants, rum or vanilla, and nuts. Combine well.
2. Drop onto wax paper in rounded spoonfuls, using two spoons or a cookie scoop. Refrigerate for 30 minutes, then store in a Ziploc bag in a cool place.
