Time 22m

Yield 5 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 1/2 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips
1 cup bittersweet chocolate chips (or dark chocolate chips)
2 tablespoons apricot preserves
2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
1 teaspoon lemon zest, finely grated
1 teaspoon orange zest, finely grated
1/2 cup walnuts, chopped coarsely, toasted
1/2 cup dried apricot, finely chopped

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 400*F.
  • Place coarsely chopped walnuts on baking sheet and place in hot oven. Bake for 8 minutes. Remove from oven.
  • Melt both chocolate chips in a double boiler(over water-or microwave if you like but be careful not to burn). Stir frequently to melt and when smooth and velvety, add in apricot preserves. Mix thoroughly. Remove from heat.
  • Quickly add in cinnamon, lemon and orange zest, stirring to mix.
  • Spread out onto wax paper lined baking sheet. Sprinkle with toasted walnuts and chopped dried apricots. Press them down into the chocolate so they will stick.
  • Chill 1 hour or until firm.
  • Break into pieces. Store in covered container(or zip loc bag) in the fridge. Will keep at least one week. Enjoy!
