Ingredients
  

Chocolate Coating
  • 6 oz Dark Chocolate (at least 70% cocoa) Look for high-quality chocolate for best flavor.
Filling
  • 1 cup Pomegranate Seeds (dry) Ensure seeds are thoroughly dried to prevent chocolate from seizing.

  • Baking sheet
  • Silicone Mat
  • Double boiler or microwave

Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Begin by lining a rimmed baking sheet with a silicone mat or parchment paper.
  2. Spread the pomegranate seeds on a clean dish towel in a single layer and allow them to air dry for 1–2 hours.
  3. Chop the dark chocolate into small pieces for even melting, then melt using a double boiler or microwave.
  4. Once melted, gently toss the dried pomegranate seeds in the melted chocolate, ensuring they are fully coated.
  5. Using a tablespoon, scoop and drop clusters of the chocolate-coated seeds onto the prepared baking sheet.
  6. Place the baking sheet in the refrigerator and allow the drops to set for about one hour.
  7. Once set, carefully transfer the drops to an airtight container and store in the refrigerator.
