today I've got a holiday treat that is
0:08
sweet tart and literally bursting with
0:12
flavor i'm Danny Spees and for this
0:14
quick bite I'm making chocolatecovered
0:17
pomegranate drops the first thing you
0:19
need to do is set up a double boiler and
0:21
you don't need anything fancy to do this
0:23
just grab a mediumsized pot put a couple
0:26
inches of water in the bottom of the pot
0:28
then put your heat up to high let that
0:30
come to a boil once you've got your boil
0:32
turn it down to a simmer and then you
0:35
need to find a bowl that can fit on top
0:38
of the pot without the bottom touching
0:40
the water so just like this and that's
0:43
all there is to it you've got your
0:44
double boiler to that I'm going to add
0:47
in 6 oz of dark chocolate and then you
0:50
just want to stir that periodically to
0:52
help it melt down and the smaller you
0:54
chop your chocolate the faster it's
0:55
going to melt for you now I love the way
0:57
the bitterness of the dark chocolate
0:59
pairs up with that sweet tart
1:01
pomegranate but if you prefer milk
1:04
chocolate by all means go with it just
1:06
make sure you come back and let me know
1:07
how it was down in the comments below so
1:10
once you notice that all the lumps are
1:12
gone and that the chocolate is nice and
1:14
creamy and melted down you can shut off
1:16
your heat and add in your pomegranate
1:18
seeds now you're going to need one cup
1:20
of pomegranate seeds plus a little bit
1:22
extra for garnish get those into the pot
1:25
then just toss them around until they're
1:27
all coated in that chocolate
1:31
now it's super important that your
1:33
pomegranate seeds are bone dry when you
1:36
get them into the chocolate because if
1:38
the chocolate gets any water in it it
1:40
will seize up and then you're going to
1:41
have to start this whole process over
1:43
again so what I do is I seed my
1:46
pomegranate which you can learn how to
1:48
do right over there and then I lay them
1:50
out on a dish towel lie another dish
1:53
towel over the top and then I just
1:55
gently roll them around a bit just to
1:56
dry them out so once you've got all the
1:59
seeds coated in the chocolate what
2:00
you're going to do is grab a rimmed
2:03
baking sheet that you've got lined with
2:05
either a Silpat mat like I've got here
2:07
or some parchment paper then scoop up
2:09
the chocolate pomegranate seeds with a
2:11
tablespoon and just drop little puddles
2:15
right onto your baking sheet and you're
2:17
just going to keep on doing that until
2:18
you've used up all the chocolate palm
2:21
mixture you're gonna end up with between
2:23
10 and 12 drops then once you've got
2:25
them all done I like to go back and just
2:27
garnish each one with a few of the fresh
2:30
pomegranate seeds right over the top not
2:32
only is it beautiful and festive but it
2:34
also lets whoever's eating it know what
2:37
they're about to be eating now to finish
2:39
these up we just have to put them in the
2:41
fridge and let them chill for a couple
2:42
hours or until they're set up now if you
2:45
were worried that that entire baking
2:46
sheet wouldn't fit in your refrigerator
2:48
you could also just take some parchment
2:50
paper put it on some smaller plates and
2:52
do it that way once they're all set up
2:55
you can store them in an airtight
2:56
container in the fridge for up to 3 days
2:58
and I've got a couple of these ready to
3:00
go that I made last night so I could
3:02
show them to you look at that the
3:04
chocolate is nice and shiny and those
3:07
beautiful jewels on top let you know
3:09
what you're about to get into
3:15
m you get that rich creamy chocolate
3:18
with the sweet juicy pomegranate seed
3:20
and then when you take a bite the whole
3:21
thing just pops in your mouth these
3:23
would be very fun to serve with a glass
3:25
of champagne for more simple and
