Chocolate-Covered Mint Leaves - cooking recipe

Ingredients

1 bunch fresh mint leaves
1 (4 ounce) bar dark chocolate, chopped

Preparation

Wash mint leaves and thoroughly pat dry.
Place chocolate in top of a double boiler over simmering water. Stir frequently, scraping down the sides with a rubber spatula to avoid scorching, until chocolate is melted, about 5 minutes.
Dip each mint leaf halfway into the melted chocolate, dragging it in one direction, then flipping it and dragging it back the other way. Place on a sheet of parchment paper and let stand at room temperature or in the refrigerator until set.
