Chocolate Raspberry Brownies + Mint Chocolate Shortbread + Chocolate Cherry Tartlets

Dove Chocolate Recipes (1)

I’ve written a few posts already about my work with Dove Chocolate this summer. In the spring I was lucky enough to visit their chocolate factory in Elizabethtown, PA. I also helped to promote the launch of their latest flavor, Mint & Dark Chocolate Swirl. Today I have my final post as part of this summer’s Tastemakers Ambassador Program and I’m bringing you three chocolate recipes that highlight Dove: Dark Chocolate Raspberry Brownies (shown above), Mint Chocolate Shortbread, and Chocolate Cherry Tartlets.

One of the many things I love about Dove Chocolate is that you can use it as you would any standard baking chocolate. It tempers perfectly and can be added to baked goods or used as a ganache. I was very pleased with how it easily incorporated in all of my chocolate recipes. I know you’ll enjoy them as much as I did!

These dark chocolate raspberry brownies are dense, soft and fudgy. Each bite hits you with intense chocolate flavor and a subtle raspberry finish.

If you read this blog on a regular basis you know that I’m a shortbread fanatic. This is my standard shortbread recipe with the addition of peppermint extract and a mint chocolate ganache. Sprinkling chopped chocolate on top is completely optional. It doesn’t change the flavor or texture; it just adds a bit of minty green color.

Course Dessert

Cuisine American

Prep Time 1 hour hour

Cook Time 30 minutes minutes

Total Time 1 hour hour 30 minutes minutes

Servings 30 cookies

Author Jennifer Farley

Ingredients

  • 3/4 cup unsalted butter, cubed and at room temperature
  • 1/2 cup powdered sugar
  • 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
  • 1/4 teaspoon peppermint extract
  • 1 3/4 cup all-purpose flour
  • 3.3 ounces (1 bar) Dove Mint & Dark Chocolate Swirl
  • optional- 2 ounces Dove Mint & Dark Chocolate Swirl, chopped finely for garnish

Instructions

  • Cream the butter, sugar and salt in a stand mixer with the paddle attachment until light and fluffy, approximately 5 minutes.

  • Add the vanilla and peppermint extracts and then lower the speed. Slowly add the flour until the dough is evenly combined. Briefly mix with a spatula to make sure all of the flour has been incorporated.

  • Roll the dough tightly in plastic wrap, flatten and chill in the fridge for at least an hour or the freezer for 20 minutes, until the butter is firm.

  • Roll out the dough to around 1/2 inch thick between 2 sheets of parchment paper. Using a small round cookie cutter (1 1/2 - 2 inches), cut the dough and then place the cookies on a baking sheet covered with parchment. Roll the excess scraps in a ball and repeat the process until all the dough is used. Chill for at least 30 minutes.

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Spread the cooking at least 1 inch apart (2 baking sheets might be required). Bake for 10-15 minutes or until lightly golden on top. Allow the cookies to cool to room temperature.

  • Melt the Dove Mint Chocolate in a heatproof bowl over a saucepan of simmering water, stirring until melted. Using a pastry brush, spread a thin layer of chocolate on top of each cookie. Alternately, you can dip the top of each cookie into the chocolate.

  • If using, sprinkle finely chopped Dove Mint Chocolate on top of each cookie. Allow the chocolate to set before serving.
