Ingredients
UnitsScale
2ounces (1/4 cup) melted dark chocolate
Instructions
Melt dark chocolate in a heatproof bowl either using a double boiler or in the microwave. Make sure to slowly melt chocolate on low heat.
Transfer melted chocolate to a piping bag (I make mine out of parchment paper when I need a really small tip, here’s a quick video on how to make your own).
On a baking sheet lined with parchment paper, pipe arrowheads, and hearts. Make sure you extend the sticks of the arrows and hearts longer than normal; so you have room to stick them into the icing without losing the length on the arrow.
Transfer the baking sheet with all your chocolate arrows and hearts to the fridge for 10 minutes to set.
Carefully peel them off the parchment paper and place them into your Valentine cupcakes.
