Chocolate-covered prunes, also known as plums in chocolate or prunes in chocolate (Polish: śliwka w czekoladzie, Russian: чернослив в шоколаде, romanized: chernosliv v shokolade), are a kind of sweet: a chocolate candy with an entire dried plum as a filling.
A chocolate-covered prune or plum is a typical Polish delicacy.[1][2] Along with similarly prepared dried apricots, chocolate-covered prunes are a traditional confectionery in Russia and Ukraine.[3]
Variations
editChocolate-covered or chocolate-cream-covered cooked plums are another available,[4] sometimes with toasted almonds or walnuts at the center of the confection.[3][5] Crushed nuts can be used as a topping.[5]
