Ingredients

• mini muffin pan
• mini muffin papers
• chocolate

Preparation

Step 1

I used my mini muffin tin and lined it with papers.

Melt your chocolate. I used the Guittard apeels, but you can use any good melting chocolate. If you have a condiment bottle it works wonders for putting the chocolate into the bottom of the cups. I just keep the chocolate in this bottle and reuse it over and over.

To melt your chocolate, put it in the microwave for 1 minute on 50% power. Stir and repeat for 30 seconds at 50% power. Stir and repeat if necessary. It is better to go slow and stir the chocolate to melt it and not let the chocolate burn!

Squirt or spoon into the bottom of the cups.

Using the back of a spoon spread the chocolate all the way up the side of the cups. The one thing I learned is that you want the sides to be thick enough that they won’t break when you remove the paper, so be sure to get plenty of chocolate up the sides.

Let them cool and set up

After they have set up, remove the paper. Don’t they look cute already?
