These tasty treats are elegant little bites to serve at a party or open house.

- 8 ounce dark chocolate candy bar
- 4 ounce milk chocolate candy bar
- 8 ounces heavy whipping cream
- 1/2 tablespoon sugar
- 1/8 cup Diamond Wine (Noiret wine may be substituted if a darker chocolate flavor is preferred)
- Additional Whipping Cream & Grated Chocolate for Garnish, if desired
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350°. Remove phyllo shells from carton and place on baking sheet. Bake 3 to 5 minutes to crisp shells. Set aside to cool.
- Melt dark chocolate and milk chocolate bars together in double boiler. Set aside to cool.
- In the meantime, whip heavy whipping cream, adding ½ tablespoon sugar, until soft peaks form.
- Gently fold this mixture into the chocolate mixture after the chocolate has cooled for 5 to 6 minutes. Stir in 1/8 cup Diamond Wine (or Noiret Wine). Spoon or pipe mixture into cooled phyllo shells. Place in freezer to harden.
