Chocolate Apple Puree Dessert

Chocolate Apple Puree Dessert

Ingredients

• • 1 kg apples, peeled and cut into pieces (approximately 7-8 medium apples)

• Water (enough to cover apples)
• 300 g chocolate, chopped (about 2 cups of chocolate chips)

Directions

1. 1. Prepare the Apples:
      • • Peel and cut 1 kg of apples into pieces. Place the apple pieces in a pot and fill with enough water to cover them.

   2. Cook the Apples:
      • Bring the pot to a boil over medium heat. Cook for about 5 minutes until the apples are soft.

1. 1. Blend the Apples:
      • Drain the cooked apples and pass them through a sieve to remove excess water. Transfer the apples to a blender and puree until smooth.
   2. Melt the Chocolate:
      • • Chop 300 g of chocolate and melt it in the microwave in 20-second intervals, stirring in between until smooth.

   3. Combine and Chill:
      • Mix the apple puree with the melted chocolate until well combined. Grease a mold with a little oil, pour the mixture into the mold, and let it cool in the refrigerator for a few hours until set.

Serving Suggestions

• Serve chilled, garnished with a sprinkle of chopped nuts or fresh berries for an extra touch of flavor and presentation.
