Savory Chocolate Napoleon

• Bittersweet chocolate, tempered
• 1 pound cream cheese, softened
• 3 tablespoons chopped fresh chives
• 1 teaspoon paprika
• Pinch salt
• Pinch pepper

1. Use an offset spatula to spread a 1/8-inch-thick layer of tempered chocolate over a sheet of acetate.
2. When the chocolate begins to set but is not yet hard, use a sharp paring knife or rolling cutter to cut 1-inch squares.
3. When the chocolate is set, peel off the acetate and break apart the chocolate squares.
4. Place the softened cream cheese in the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with a paddle.
5. Add the chives, paprika, salt and pepper and turn the mixer on medium speed.
6. Mix just until combined.
7. Place the cream cheese mixture in a pastry bag fitted with a star tip.
8. Pipe a dollop of the cream cheese onto a chocolate square.
9. Top with a square of chocolate.
10. Pipe another dollop of cream cheese and cover with another square of chocolate.
11. Viola!
