Figues d'Amour
Toffee Apples? Well I prefer the French translation for this one : Pomme d'amour (aka "Apple of Love")... Cute right? But I don't find them that convenient to eat. Combination of caramel and apple is pretty hard on the teeth. Needless to say you won't be seducing anyone while trying to bite in one of those. Well, let me present you a healthified and yummy alternative : les Figues d'Amour. Easiest thing in the world and yet original and delicious.
Figs and chocolate will provide good energy but also a lot of vitamins, fibers, minerals and oligo-elements. Figs are recommended for women (helps with hormonal regulation), growing children and people recovering from an injury or simply tired. Dark chocolate has great antioxydant properties and will keep you relaxed and happy. So all in all, this combination is a great Body and Mind Strengthener.
Ingredients
- 1/2 cup of dark chocolate - or different to taste
- 2 ripe figs
- 1 tbp of coconut oil (optional)
Procedure
Slowly melt the chocolate in a double boiler (or microwave oven), add coconut oil and mix with a spoon until homogeneous. Wash your figs and use the same spoon to cover half or more of them with chocolate. Place in the fridge for one hour at least. Enjoy as soon as you take them out of the fridge and let me know how you like them figs o_o ...!
Note - The coconut oil will help the chocolate become hard and hold better when the figs are taken out of the fridge. - Won't work if you live a super hot country, duh -
