I was inspired by the post from our lovely and fun cook @lastochka_cooking. 🥳
The first time I made it, just like her post, I wanted even more. So here it is, with just a few tweaks.
Be sure to check out her entire recipe collection. ♥️ Each of her recipes brings a little extra general culture and fun, going beyond just cooking. 👨🏼‍🍳
Thank you, cheerful swallow! 🥰

I'm sharing a healthier version, where the key is the quality of the ingredients. Then, just watch your portion size... not so easy 🤭

Ingredients

Steps

15 minutes + chilling

1

Line a sturdy cutting board with parchment paper. Arrange the blueberries in tight rows. For best results, use berries that are similar in size (this affects the final look), though mine weren't perfectly matched.
2

Melt the chocolate with the coconut oil using a double boiler, making sure the water doesn't boil. Finish melting off the heat, using the residual warmth. You can use a microwave, but I personally think good chocolate is too delicate and special for that. Add the spices if you choose to use them.
3

Once everything is smooth and combined, pour the chocolate over the blueberries, leaving the ones on the edges partially uncovered.
4

Once it cools a bit, transfer the board to the freezer to keep its shape. Freeze for about one hour. Voilà! 😀

It holds together perfectly, even at the edges. ⚠️ The following are sensitive images. 😅 Way too tempting. 🤤
