Last night as I was putting some bakeware away, I saw these heart shaped silicone baking cups staring out at me. I realized that I couldn’t let Valentine’s Day go by without using them to make a fun treat…otherwise it might be another year before they saw the light of day. Since I always have chocolate chips and loads of candy melts on hand, it didn’t take me long to come up with something good! All I needed were the chips, melts and a few Valentine’s Day themed sprinkles. It’s a new version of chocolate bark that doesn’t get much easier!

Dark Chocolate Valentine Hearts

Start by melting a cup of dark chocolate chips. Divide evenly among the silicone cups.

Tap each cup on the counter until the chocolate is spread evenly and most of the air bubbles have popped.

Melt 10 red candy melts, pink candy melts and white candy melts. Snip a small piece off the corner of a sandwich bag and add the red candy melts. Do the same with the other two.

Squeeze the candy melts over the top of the chocolate.

Top with Valentine themed sprinkles.

Refrigerate for an hour and remove from silicone cups. These were so much fun to make and I love the way they turned out! 

These make a perfect last minute Valentine treat, though they’re almost too pretty to eat!

These also make great teacher gifts.
