Finlandia's Vaodka of Findland
Another treat I bought from the airport involves FinLandia's Vodka Chocolate.Vodka and Chocolate are a fusion of HOTNESS!
Here's what the packaging's like...
All the little hotties come tumbling out....
Unwrap it....duh!
Savor the heavenly goodness of flowing vodka and bittersweet chocolate. You might also get to bite on some caramelized vodka which is crunchy. Don't force biting it, let it melt in your mouth, you'll love it as much as I do if you crave liquor chocolates.
The bitterness of these little hotties competes with the strong taste of vodka for your desire to warm your soul.
Both won mine.
What about you?

Chocolate Fruit Tarts
CHOCOLATE FRUIT TART
Chocolate Tarts for 30 Servings
1 Day of Preparation in advance is needed before serving.
Ingredients:
1.) 30 Ready-made pie shells from bakery shop. If you can't get it, you may bake your own pie shells with this recipe.
2.) 2 Bars of 200g Hershey's Bittersweet Cooking Chocolate, or any chocolate of your choice.
3.) 200 ml of Whipping Cream
4.) 1 can of Syrup Peach, 15 Strawberries (Optional: You may choose your own fruits)
Steps to do it:
Ahhhh.... The chocolates.... Yummy!
Firstly, unwrapped them... of course.
You may choose to melt your chocolate in the microwave or on a metal tin on boiling water. Do it at your own risk.
Melt on top of boiling water:
For the first 3minutes, allow the chocolates to soften and when they are 75% melted, add whipping cream bit by bit and keep stirring the mixture so that it won't be burnt or run dry. Stir until 200ml of whipping cream is added to the chocolates.
Melt in the Microwave:
Just insert the whipping cream and all chocolates into a bowl and melt them for 15 minutes. Stir them well once the chocolate is melted.
Arrange your pie shells.
Fill the pie shells with chocolate mixture.
Refrigerate them!
Meanwhile, slice fruits that you would like to top the chocolate tart. Do place them ontop of the pie shells once the chocolate mixture is hardened in the pie shell.
To be more creative, you can top the tarts with nuts instead of fruits.
If you desire a stronger taste, you may mix the chocolate mixture with Kahlua or minimal amount of rum and top the tarts with colored sugar.
There you go, a simple, delicious Chocolate Fruit Tart.
