Ingredients
A few different kinds of chocolates (Lindt Lindor, Ghirardelli, Ferrero Rocher, etc.)
Fudge
Fruit (strawberries and raspberries)
Cookies (heart shaped if desired)
Macarons (can be found in the freezer section of Trader Joes)
Cake (use a heart shaped cookie cutter on this)
Chocolate dipping sauce
Instructions
Begin by finding the perfect board. Honestly, any board, plate, or platter will work – there’s no need to go out and buy something new. Since we’re making a dessert board, a smaller tray will work. In addition to a board, you may want a few small bowls for dips and sauces.
There’s no wrong way to assemble a charcuterie board; just add in each of your elements until you are satisfied with its look. But, for me, I tend to assemble my boards in the same order every time. First, I place my larger items, followed by medium-sized items, and finish with my small items.
To finish off your board, add in a few finishing touches. I normally add in fresh herbs, but for this board, I decided to add in flowers.
