Ingredients

  • 2 cups of shredded coconut
  • 2 cups of semi-sweet chocolate chips
  • Handful of chocolate eggs

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Pour the chocolate chips into a glass bowl. Place into the microwave and cook for 30 seconds. Carefully stir the chips with a wooden spoon. Place back into the microwave and cook for 10 seconds; remove and stir again. Place back into the microwave and cook for 10 more seconds, then remove and stir. Side Note: They should be melted by now. Be very careful not to overcook the chocolate because it will be ruined.
  2. Coat a muffin pan with cooking spray.
  3. Place a spoonful of the coconut mixture into each muffin cup–I only filled 9 in my pan.
  4. I used my pestle (from my mortar and pestle set) to push an indent into the center of each filled muffin cup, making sure not to go all the way to the bottom.
  5. Place the muffin pan into the refrigerator for 30 minutes or until set.
  6. Remove them from the refrigerator and place the chocolate eggs into the center.
  7. Serve immediately. Enjoy!
