Provided by Crystal Hatch

Categories     Snacks

Yield 24 cups

Number Of Ingredients 7

12 oz dark chocolate
7 tablespoons coconut oil, divided
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 cup peanut butter, or nut butter of choice
¼ cup honey
hemp heart, for garnish, optional
muffin tin

Steps:

  • In a microwave-safe bowl, combine the dark chocolate and 5 tablespoons of coconut oil. Microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring in between, until melted. Add the vanilla and stir until combined. The mixture should be smooth and pourable.
  • Pour ½ of the chocolate mixture into the molds, enough to cover the bottom of the mold and come about ⅓ of the way up the sides. Freeze for 15 minutes.
  • In another microwave safe bowl, mix together the peanut butter, honey, and remaining 2 tablespoons of coconut oil. Microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring in between, until smooth and pourable.
  • Pour the peanut butter mixture evenly over the chocolate layers in the molds. Make sure to leave enough room for the second layer of chocolate. Freeze for 10 minutes.
  • Pour the remaining chocolate on top of the peanut butter layer, up to the rims of the molds. Wipe off any excess that spills over the edges. If desired, sprinkle the cups with hemp hearts for added crunch. Freeze for 1 hour, until set, then pop out of the molds.
  • The cups will keep in the refrigerator for up to 1 month.
  • Enjoy!

Tips:

  • Use high-quality chocolate: The quality of the chocolate you use will greatly impact the taste of your truffles. Look for chocolate with a cocoa content of at least 70% for a rich, dark flavor.
  • Make sure your chocolate is finely chopped: This will help it melt smoothly and evenly. You can chop your chocolate by hand with a sharp knife or use a food processor.
  • Use heavy cream instead of milk: Heavy cream will give your truffles a richer, creamier texture.
  • Don't over-mix the ganache: Over-mixing will make the ganache grainy. Stir the ganache just until it is smooth and combined.
  • Chill the ganache before forming the truffles: This will help the ganache set properly and make it easier to work with.
  • Use a variety of coatings: You can coat your truffles in cocoa powder, chopped nuts, sprinkles, or even melted chocolate. Get creative and have fun with it!
  • Store the truffles in the refrigerator: Truffles can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks. Bring them to room temperature for about 30 minutes before serving.
