Valentine Berries And Cream
8 squares (1 ounces each) semi-sweet chocolate
1 tablespoon shortening
2 packages (3 ounces each) cream cheese, softened
1/4 cup butter or margarine, softened
1-1/2 cups powdered sugar
1/3 cup baking cocoa
2 tablespoons milk
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
2-1/2 whipping cream, whipped, divided
1-1/2 cups fresh strawberries, halved
Recipe
Line a 9-inch heart-shaped or square baking pan with foil; set aside. In a heavy saucepan over low heat, melt chocolate and shortening; stir until smooth. Pour into prepared pan, swirling to coat the bottom and 1-1/2 inches up the side. Refrigerate for 1 minute, then swirl the chocolate to reinforce sides of heart of box. Refrigerate for 30 minutes or until firm. Using foil, lift from pan; remove foil and place chocolate heart on a serving plate.
In a mixing bowl, beat the cream cheese and butter until smooth. Combine powdered sugar and cocoa; add to creamed mixture with milk and vanilla. Beat until smooth. Gently fold two-thirds of the whipped cream into cream cheese mixture. Spoon into heart. Insert star tip #32 into a pastry or plastic bag; fill with the remaining whipped cream. Pipe around the edge of heart. Garnish with strawberries. Yields 8 to 10 servings.
