Ingredients for 4 servings:
- 200 g sugar, refined sugar (not fine)
- 1 tbsp cocoa powder, pure baking cocoa
- ¼ tsp clove powder
- 1 tsp cinnamon powder
- ¼ tsp vanilla powder, bourbon or the pulp of a vanilla pod
- 2 tbsp water, clear (just under)
Instructions
Working time approx. 10 minutes; Rest period approx. 3 days; Total time approx. 3 days 10 minutes
(or other shapes e.g. stars)
Mix all the dry ingredients together and add the water last. Be careful: the sugar should be moist, but not wet; it shouldn’t dissolve. Fill a silicone heart or star mold with the sugar and press firmly. Smooth the surface again with your finger while it’s still wet. This will make the base a little firmer and prevent the hearts from crumbling after removal. Let it dry in a warm place, preferably on a radiator, for several days! Use: Dissolve in a mug of tea, coffee, or cappuccino. TIP: Half a bottle of butter vanilla flavoring adds a little extra flavor!
