Method
 

Instructions
  1. Prepare the pan by lining an 8x6 quarter sheet pan with parchment paper.
  2. In a mixing bowl, beat the softened unsalted butter until smooth and creamy, about 2-3 minutes.
  3. Gradually add the powdered sugar, mixing on low speed until fully combined and creamy, about 4-5 minutes.
  4. Mix in the blueberry flavor paste and a pinch of salt. Taste and adjust flavor if necessary.
  5. Add whole milk one tablespoon at a time, mixing until the buttercream reaches a pipeable consistency.
  6. Transfer the buttercream into the prepared pan, pressing down evenly, and chill for 15-20 minutes.
  7. Remove the buttercream from the pan once chilled and cut into 1-inch squares.
  8. Place the cut squares on a wire rack and let them dry at room temperature for 12-24 hours.
  9. Melt the dark chocolate in a microwave-safe bowl in 30-second intervals, stirring in between.
  10. Carefully dip each buttercream square into the melted chocolate using a fork, allowing excess to drip off.
  11. Set the dipped chocolates at room temperature until the chocolate has set.
  12. Store the chocolates in an airtight container at room temperature for up to a week.
