Categories     Chocolate

Time 20m

Number Of Ingredients 6

6 Tbsp chocolate chips (dark chocolate and semi-sweet work best)
3 Tbsp raspberry preserves
2 Tbsp finely chopped walnuts
12 fresh raspberries, for garnish (optional)
chocolate shavings, for garnish (optional)
* 12-15 small foil-lined paper candy cups

Steps:

  • 1. Place chocolate chips in a glass bowl (I used a 1-cup glass measuring cup) for 45 seconds on High power in microwave oven. Add raspberry preserves and chopped nuts, and stir well. If chocolate is not completely melted, return bowl to microwave and continue to heat on High at 15-second intervals, stirring each time, until chocolate is completely melted.
  • 2. Spoon about 1 teaspoon of the melted chocolate mixture into 12 foil-lined candy cups, filled about 3/4 full. Refrigerate for 10 minutes to allow the individual desserts to "set".
  • 3. Optional: Garnish each with a fresh raspberry or fresh chocolate shavings for added appeal.

Tips:

  • To make the chocolate cups, use a high-quality chocolate that contains at least 70% cacao. This will ensure that the cups are rich and flavorful.
  • When melting the chocolate, be careful not to overheat it. If the chocolate is too hot, it will seize up and become unusable.
  • To make the filling, use a variety of your favorite ingredients. Some popular options include peanut butter, Nutella, and caramel.
  • If you are making the cups ahead of time, store them in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks. When you are ready to serve, let them come to room temperature for about 30 minutes before filling.

Conclusion:

Mini chocolate cups are a delicious and easy-to-make treat that is perfect for any occasion. With a variety of fillings to choose from, there is sure to be a combination that everyone will enjoy. So next time you are looking for a sweet snack, give these mini chocolate cups a try!
