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.

LITTLE NUT CUPS
I learned this recipe from a childhood friend whose mother made these for family parties and get-togethers. They are a great Christmas or special occasion cookie. My Mother makes hers with walnuts, I prefer pecans for a mini pecan pie taste.

Steps:
- In a medium bowl, mix together the butter, cream cheese and sugar until smooth. Stir in the flour and mix thoroughly. The dough should be somewhat firm. Roll into 36 small balls, place them on a plate and refrigerate for one hour.
- Make the filling in a medium bowl. Beat the eggs, melted butter, vanilla and brown sugar until smooth and well blended. Stir in the nuts. Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Press the chilled dough balls into the bottom and up the sides of tart pans or mini muffin cups. Fill each shell with filling almost to the top. Use a squeeze top honey container if you have one, to drip about 1/2 teaspoon of honey onto the top of each cup.
- Bake for 15 to 20 minutes in the preheated oven, until crust is lightly browned. Allow to cool in the tins completely before removing.

NUT CUPS
This Nut Cups recipe is from my Great Aunt Millie. Alot of my families recipes were passed down from generation to generation. Several years ago, I revised my grandmothers recipes and added more of my own and my families and put them into a cookbook for safe keeping. This is just one of the many dessert recipes that has been handed down. I hope you enjoy them.

MINI CHOCOLATE-RASPBERRY NUT CUPS
A rich and decadent chocolate-raspberry mini dessert with a touch of walnuts that would be perfect for any special occasion. These mini desserts are individual size, so they'll satisfy your sweet tooth on those days when you just want a sampling of something sweet. The only special equipment you'll need for this recipe is 12 foil-lined candy cups that you can find in the baking aisle of most larger grocery stores or a bakery supply shop. UPDATE -- this recipe started as an entry in a cooking contest, which required the use of certain ingredients in order to qualify. Based on reviews, I have eliminated the rich cream cheese-based topping, which leaves the truffle-like individual desserts that really are the focal point of these Mini Chocolate Raspberry Nut Cups anyway.

Tips:
- Use high-quality chocolate for the best flavor. A good semisweet or bittersweet chocolate will work well.
- If you don't have a candy mold, you can use a mini muffin tin instead. Just be sure to grease the cups well before filling them.
- Don't overfill the cups. The chocolate should come about halfway up the sides.
- Be patient when melting the chocolate. It takes a little time to get it smooth and creamy.
- If you're using fresh raspberries, be sure to pat them dry before adding them to the cups. This will help prevent the chocolate from seizing.
- If you don't have any nuts on hand, you can omit them from the recipe. The cups will still be delicious.
- Store the cups in a cool, dry place. They will keep for up to 2 weeks.
Conclusion:
These mini chocolate raspberry nut cups are a delicious and easy-to-make treat that is perfect for any occasion. They are also a great way to use up any leftover chocolate or nuts you may have on hand. So next time you're looking for a sweet and satisfying snack, give these cups a try!
