MINI CHOCOLATE-RASPBERRY NUT CUPS



Mini Chocolate-Raspberry Nut Cups image

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.

Time 15m

Yield 12 mini desserts, 12 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 5

6 tablespoons chocolate chips (dark chocolate and semi-sweet work best)
3 tablespoons raspberry preserves
2 tablespoons walnuts, finely chopped
12 raspberries (optional, for garnish)
chocolate shavings (optional, for garnish)

Steps:

  • 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.
  • Spoon about 1 teaspoon of the melted chocolate mixture into 12 foil-lined candy cups, filled about ¾ full. Refrigerate for 10 minutes to allow the individual desserts to "set".
  • Optional: Garnish each with a fresh raspberry or fresh chocolate shavings for added appeal.
