Ingredients
Oops! Something went wrong. Our team is working on it.
½ pound high-quality dark chocolate, chopped
⅛ teaspoon ground dried chipotle pepper
1 pinch salt
½ cup heavy whipping cream
3 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder, or as needed
Directions
Place chocolate into a bowl; add chipotle pepper and salt.
Heat cream in a small saucepan over medium-low heat until it comes to a boil. Pour over chocolate and let stand for 3 minutes. Stir gently until chocolate mixture is completely smooth.
Pour chocolate mixture out onto a sheet of plastic wrap on a work surface. Pick up one edge of the plastic and roll chocolate into a rough log shape. Continue to roll, wrapping chocolate in the plastic. Refrigerate until chilled and firm, 30 to 60 minutes.
Place cocoa powder in a small bowl.
Unwrap chocolate and cut in half crosswise; cut each half into halves lengthwise. Rough-cut candy into 1/2-inch squares.
Place chocolate squares into cocoa powder and toss gently to coat.
