Ingredients
Scale
- 2/3 cup fresh or frozen raspberries
- 1 tablespoon chia seeds
- 1 tablespoon honey, or maple syrup
- 1/4 cup peanut butter
- 1 cup semisweet chocolate chips
- 2 teaspoons coconut oil
Instructions
- In a medium saucepan, combine raspberries and honey over medium heat. Bring to a simmer and cook for about 5 minutes, stirring continuously to prevent burning.
- Remove from heat and stir in chia seeds. Set aside to cool.
- In a microwave-safe bowl, combine chocolate chips and coconut oil. Microwave for 30 seconds, stir, then microwave in 20-second increments until fully melted (about 40-60 seconds total).
- In a separate microwave-safe bowl, soften peanut butter by microwaving for 15-20 seconds until smooth.
- Spoon 1/2 teaspoon of melted chocolate into each muffin cup, spreading it evenly over the bottom and up the sides to form a chocolate 'cup'.
- Add 1/2 teaspoon of peanut butter and about 1/2 teaspoon of raspberry jam to the center of each cup.
- Top each cup with 1 teaspoon of melted chocolate, smoothing the tops with a spoon.
- Refrigerate for at least 1-2 hours to allow the cups to set before serving.
Notes
You can substitute the raspberries with your favorite fruit jam.
Ensure the chocolate is completely melted for smooth application.
Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator.
