Chocolate Lego Figures

Jump to Recipe

I just love these tasty chocolate lego figures. They are not just for kids either, they are a perfect treat for any lego fan out there.

Everything is awesome when you are eating chocolate legos! Seriously how can you go wrong with these? It is the perfect way to eat chocolate. And they are so incredibly easy to make. If I can do it, you can do it. Let’s get started!

Step 1: Gather the ingredients and tool

In order to make these creative chocolate lego figures you will need the following ingredients and tools:

• Chocolate – You can use whatever kind of chocolate that you want, I like to use candy melts because they come in all different colors.
• Nuts – Add some almonds, peanuts, or walnuts to make them “healthy” haha. They are optional of course.

Tools

• Chocolate Lego Figures Molds – There really isn’t a substitute for this, thankfully the molds are pretty cheap. Some bundles even come with lego brick molds as well.
• Toothpick or bamboo skewer – Used to paint on the face.
• Parchment paper – Used to make dividers so you can make the head a different color.
• Spoons
• Bowls

Step 2: How to make chocolate lego figures

Begin by cutting up little strips of parchment paper. They need to be small enough to be able to fit in the lego figure mold so it can be a divider between the head and the body. Of course if you don’t care if the head and the body are the same color then it doesn’t matter you can skip this part.

Also melt the chocolate that you want to use for the bodies. You can melt it in the microwave in a microwave-safe bowl, using bursts of 25 seconds and stirring, until melted. Or you can use the double boiler method on the stovetop.

Step 3: Filling the lego figure molds with chocolate

Now use a spoon or piping bag and add chocolate to the body of the lego mold. You can add chopped nuts too if you like. Isn’t it cool how the parchment paper keeps the body separate from the head?

Now just fill the rest of the body up with chocolate until it reaches the top and is level. Give it a gentle tap to allow the chocolate to settle.

Next, place the Lego mold with the melted chocolate into the fridge and allow the chocolate to set for 25 to 30 minutes.

Once the mold comes out of the fridge, gently remove the parchment paper dividers. Then melt a different color of candy melt or chocolate and spoon or pipe it in for the head. Yellow is a classic yellow head color, but again you can do whatever color or kind that you want.

Once you are done adding all the heads, back into the fridge they go so the head can set.

Step 4: Paint on the Lego faces

Once the chocolate has set, you can remove the molds from the fridge and carefully remove the chocolate lego figures from the molds.

Then take a toothpick or bamboo skewer and dip it into some melted chocolate and paint on some eyes and a mouth to all the figures. Place them back in the fridge so the face can set and then they are ready to go! Pretty simple right?

These little treats are the perfect dessert to serve at a lego themed birthday party. You could even have them along side of this Lego Man Cake. Kids love these things!

How long do chocolate lego figures last?

If you keep them stored in the fridge they will last several weeks. But they normally get eaten by then.
