Description
You cannot ask for anything better than fresh figs off the tree, dipped in homemade sugar-free dark chocolate, leaving you with a clean healthy snack or dessert loaded with nutrients and antioxidants.
Ingredients
- Follow my Paleo Homemade Dark Chocolate Dipping Sauce recipe
- 6 Fresh large, clean and ripe fresh figs, REFRIGERATED (cold)
Instructions
- Line a cookie sheet that will fit in your freezer with parchment paper.
- Place your Paleo Homemade Dark Chocolate Dipping sauce in a shallow bowl with a fairly steep edge.
- It should be fluid and at least room temperature.
- Gently hold the tip or stem of your fig and roll it in the Chocolate Sauce. You may need to hold the bowl in order to cover the whole fig.
- Immediately place the fig on the paper.
- Do this with each fig.
- Place in freezer for 3-5 minutes.
- Take the figs out of the freezer and roll them one at a time in the Chocolate Sauce and back on the parchment and back in the freezer. Allowing 3-5 minutes between each “dipping”.
- I did mine 3 times as I prefer a semi thin coating.
- The more you do, the thicker the chocolate coating on the figs.
- After the last dipping, you may keep the figs in the freezer 5-8 minutes and serve cold immediately.
- You simply trim the chocolate off the bottom with a small knife allowing the flat bottom of chocolate to remain, so they will sit upright if you so desire.
- Save the extra chocolate and the “trimmings” for future use with recipes such as my Chocolate Bark.
- If you are making these ahead of time, place them in the back of the refrigerator until ready for serving.
- Enjoy!
Notes
Do not leave in freezer for too long.
If it is warm outside, be sure to keep these refrigerated.
