Learn how to make a breakable chocolate heart smash that you can fill with your favorite candy, treats, or gifts inside. Gift or keep it to break it right open!
Microwave the chocolate in a microwave-safe bowl for 15-20 seconds at a time and stir in between until the chocolate is melted.
Pour the melted chocolate into the chocolate heart mold and swirl and spread it around until all of the mold is covered.
Let the chocolate set for about 15 minutes in the freezer or 30 minutes in the refrigerator.
Add a second layer to make it thicker if needed. Let it set again for another 15-30 minutes in the refrigerator or freezer.
Once the chocolate is fully set you can remove the chocolates from the molds.
If your heart pieces are uneven you'll want to even them out by heating a large skillet on the stovetop on medium heat and then carefully place half of the chocolate heart halves onto the skillet open side down to make them even.
Fill the flattened side chocolate halves with your desired fillings if making a complete heart or you can just place your ingredients on a cutting board or inside a box and place the heart over top of the goodies..
If making a complete two-sided heart you need to seal the heart. To seal you can pipe some melted chocolate to the bottom heart half and then place the other chocolate heart half on top. Use your finger with a glove to seal the heart and wipe away any excess chocolate.
Now you can decorate the outside of your chocolate smash heart however you'd like.
Place your chocolate heart with a hammer inside a box or on a tray to gift or enjoy yourself.
