Homemade Chocolate Lego Figures

I just love these tasty chocolate lego figures. They are not just for kids either, they are a perfect treat for any lego fan out there.

Everything is awesome when you are eating chocolate legos! Seriously how can you go wrong with these? It is the perfect way to eat chocolate. And they are so incredibly easy to make. If I can do it, you can do it. Let’s get started!

Ingredients

• 1 cup chocolate, any kind you want, candy melts work great 175g
• 1/4 cup chopped almonds, optional 35g

Instructions

First cut up parchment paper into little tiny rectangles that will fit in the lego figure mold. It needs to separate the head from the body. Place those in the mold for each lego figure.

Now melt the chocolate, candy melts, etc. in a microwave-safe bowl in the microwave with bursts of 25 seconds and then stirring. Or do it using the double boiler method on the stovetop. Pour the melted chocolate into the body part of each mold. The parchment paper will keep it from getting to the head.

Next, place the mold in the fridge and allow the chocolate to set, this will take about 30 minutes.

Remove them from the fridge and gently pull out the parchment paper. Then melt another color of chocolate and use a piping bag or spoon to put the chocolate in the head area of the mold. If you are filling up the smaller sized lego figure molds, a piping bag or plastic bag with the corner snipped off is ideal for pouring the chocolate.

Once the head parts are filled up, place the completed mold back in the fridge so the chocolate head can set.

Remove them from the fridge and gently remove the chocolate figures from the mold and place them on a platter, plate, etc. You can leave them like this, but it is more fun to put on the faces. Melt a little bit of dark or milk chocolate and then dip a toothpick or bamboo skewer in it, then draw on the eyes and the mouths.

Place them back in the fridge for 15 minutes to allow the faces to set. Then serve them up. Enjoy!
