Chocolate caramel cups are a delightful treat that combines the rich flavors of dark chocolate and sweet caramel. These bite-sized desserts are perfect for satisfying your sweet tooth and are surprisingly easy to make with just a few simple ingredients.
Ingredients:
Instructions:
1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a mini muffin tin with paper liners.
2. In a medium-sized bowl, cream together the butter and sugar until light and fluffy.
3. Gradually mix in the all-purpose flour and dried coconut meat until a dough forms.
1. Divide the dough evenly among the mini muffin cups, pressing it down to form a small cup shape at the bottom of each liner.
2. Bake the crust in the preheated oven for about 10-12 minutes, or until they are lightly golden. Remove from the oven and allow to cool completely.
1. In a saucepan over medium heat, combine the condensed milk and maple syrup.
2. Stir constantly until the mixture thickens and turns a light caramel color. This should take about 10-15 minutes. Be sure to keep stirring to prevent the mixture from burning.
1. Once the crusts are cool, fill each cup with the caramel mixture, evenly distributing it among all the cups.
1. Melt the dark chocolate in a microwave-safe bowl in 30-second intervals, stirring in between, until completely melted and smooth.
1. Spoon the melted dark chocolate over the caramel layer in each cup, making sure to cover the caramel completely.
2. Allow the chocolate to set at room temperature or pop the muffin tin in the refrigerator to speed up the process.
1. Once the chocolate is set, remove the cups from the liners and serve.
2. Store any leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature or in the refrigerator for up to a week.
Tips:
- Ensure the caramel mixture is thick enough before pouring it into the cups; this ensures it sets properly.
- Use good-quality dark chocolate to enhance the overall flavor of the dessert.
- Let the cups cool at room temperature before transferring them to the refrigerator to prevent condensation.
- You can toast the dried coconut meat for a few minutes for an added layer of flavor and texture.
- Store the chocolate caramel cups in an airtight container in the refrigerator to keep them fresh for longer.
With these simple steps and basic ingredients, you can easily create delicious Chocolate caramel cups that are sure to impress. Whether you're enjoying them as a treat for yourself or sharing with friends and family, these sweet, savory, and decadent cups are a surefire hit.
