Step-by-Step Instructions for Blueberry Buttercream Chocolates
  1. Prepare the pan by lining an 8 x 6 quarter sheet pan with parchment paper.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, beat softened unsalted butter for 2-3 minutes until smooth and creamy.
  3. Gradually sift in powdered sugar, mixing well after each addition until fully combined.
  4. Add blueberry flavor paste and salt, stirring until thoroughly combined.
  5. Add whole milk one tablespoon at a time until the buttercream is smooth and spreadable.
  6. Spread the buttercream into the prepared pan and chill for 15-20 minutes.
  7. Once firm, cut the buttercream into 1-inch squares and dry at room temperature for 12-24 hours.
  8. Melt dark chocolate in a heatproof bowl until smooth and glossy.
  9. Dip each buttercream square into the melted chocolate and place back on the parchment-lined baking sheet.
  10. Let dipped chocolates sit at room temperature until chocolate hardens, about 30-60 minutes.
