Ounce Cream cheese; room temperature  
/2 Cup Semi−sweet chocolate; melted  
Dash Grand Marnier  
Cup Heavy cream  
8 Fresh strawberries; washed, patted dry  
Cup Melted semisweet chocolate; tempered  
Dozen Shortbread cookies  
Using an electric standing mixer, fitted with wire attachment, add the heavy  
cream. Whip the cream to soft peaks. Set the cream aside. Change the wire  
attachment to a paddle attachment. In another bowl, cream the cheese and  
chocolate. Mix thoroughly, scraping down the sides of the bowl,  
occasionally. Fold the whipped cream into the chocolate mixture. Line 6  
small heart−shaped ceramic molds with dampened cheesecloth, allow the  
cheesecloth over the sides of the mold. Fill each mold with the chocolate  
filling. Fold the overlapping cheesecloth over the filling, covering  
tightly. Place the molds on a baking sheet and refrigerate over night, at  
least 12 hours. Remove the hearts from the molds and discard the  
cheesecloth. Line baking sheet with parchment paper. Dip each strawberry in  
the melted chocolate, about 3/4 of the strawberry. Place the strawberries on  
the baking sheet and chill the berries until the chocolate is set, about 4  
to 6 hours. Serve the hearts on individual plates with the strawberries and  
cookies. This recipe yields 6 servings.
