Coconut Dome with Chocolate 

Ingredients:

For the Chocolate Shell:

  • 2 cups dark chocolate chips

For the Coconut Filling:

  • 1 cup sweetened condensed milk
  • 2 cups shredded coconut
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

For Decoration:

  • 1/2 cup melted white chocolate (optional)
  • Shredded coconut flakes (optional)

Directions:

Prepare the Chocolate Shell:

  1. Melt the dark chocolate chips in a double boiler or microwave until smooth.
  2. Using a silicone dome mold, coat the inside of each cavity with a thick layer of melted chocolate. Use a spoon or pastry brush to ensure even coverage.
  3. Place the mold in the refrigerator to set for about 10-15 minutes. Repeat the process with another layer of chocolate to ensure the shell is sturdy.

Make the Coconut Filling:

  1. In a large bowl, combine the sweetened condensed milk, shredded coconut, and vanilla extract. Mix well until the coconut is fully coated and the mixture is sticky.

Assemble the Domes:

  1. Once the chocolate shells are set, carefully spoon the coconut filling into each chocolate dome, pressing gently to compact the mixture and leaving a small gap at the top.
  2. Melt some additional chocolate to seal the bottom of the domes. Spread the melted chocolate over the coconut filling to create a base for each dome.
  3. Place the mold back in the refrigerator for at least 20 minutes to fully set.

Unmold and Decorate:

  1. Carefully remove the domes from the silicone mold.
  2. Optional: Drizzle melted white chocolate over the top of each dome and sprinkle with shredded coconut flakes for a decorative touch.

Serve:

  1. Place the domes on a serving platter and let them sit at room temperature for a few minutes before serving to allow the chocolate to soften slightly for a perfect bite.
