Description
Chocolate covered cream drops are a delicious treat that can be made in just a few minutes. These small, bite-sized morsels are perfect for a party or just as a special treat for yourself. The creamy center is surrounded by a layer of chocolate, making these treats irresistible. This recipe is easy to make and all you need is a few ingredients and some basic kitchen equipment.

Ingredients
For this recipe, you’ll need:
- 6 ounces of semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 1/2 cup of heavy cream
- 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract
- 1/4 cup of confectioners’ sugar
- 1/4 cup of chopped nuts, optional
Instructions
Begin by melting the chocolate chips in a double boiler. If you don’t have a double boiler, you can use a heatproof glass bowl over a pan of simmering water. Stir the chocolate frequently until it is completely melted. Once the chocolate is melted, set it aside and let it cool.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the heavy cream, vanilla extract, and confectioners’ sugar. Beat the mixture until it is thick and creamy. If you’d like, you can also add in some chopped nuts for an added crunch.
Once the chocolate has cooled, use a spoon to form small balls of the cream mixture. Dip each ball into the melted chocolate and place it on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Let the chocolate-covered cream drops cool completely before serving.
Equipment
To make this recipe, you’ll need a few basic kitchen tools:
- Double boiler

- Spoon
- Baking sheet

Notes
It’s important to let the chocolate-covered cream drops cool completely before serving. If the cream filling is still warm, the chocolate will melt and the drops will not hold their shape.
