Total Time

Servings: 25 chocolates
Course: Dessert
Cuisine: American

Ingredients

  • milk or dark chocolate chips such as THM, Bake Believe, Lily's or ChocZero*
  • white chocolate chips such as Bake Believe or ChocZero*
  • 1 teaspoon coconut oil (per 12 ounces chocolate chips) (optional) makes chocolate softer to chew
  • oil based food colorings (optional)
  • flavorings (optional)
  • strawberries (washed and dried) (optional)

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Pour the chocolate chips into microwave safe silicone or plastic measuring cups or bowls. I find measuring cups easier because it pours into the molds easier.
  2. Pop the cups or bowls in the microwave one at a time. Microwave for 30 seconds, stir, and repeat microwaving for 30 seconds and stirring until the chocolate is melted.
  3. If you’re going to color and/or flavor a portion of the chocolates, now is the time to do so.
  4. If you want to add a colored portion inside any of the molds, do this next using the paint brush.
  5. Fill the molds with chocolate.
  6. Freeze until solid (about 20 minutes give or take).
  7. Remove the chocolates carefully from the molds.
  8. Decorate the chocolates as desired by splattering or striping them with colored or non-colored melted chocolate, coconut flakes, colored sweetener, or whatever else you can find to do this.
  9. If desired, use some of the melted chocolate to dip strawberries. Make sure the strawberries are thoroughly dry before doing this.
  10. Put the chocolates and any dipped strawberries in the mini muffin liners in the gift box.

Notes

  • *ChocZero has an ingredients that is not THM approved, so it is considered a Personal Choice Item
  • NOTE: There are no nutrition facts on this recipe because it will totally depend on which chocolate chips and which molds you use.
