Chocolate Coconut Pecan Cups
Yield: 12 muffin tin cups
Prep time: 15 minutes
Chill time: 15 minutes
Measurements
100 g dates, pitted
30 g pecans
25 g cocoa powder
90 g coconut, shredded
160 g coconut butter
60 g maple syrup
Directions
1. To a blender add dates, pecans, and cocoa powder. Pulse until crumbly and will stick together when packed.
2. To your small pot on the stove add coconut, coconut butter, and maple syrup. The longer you leave this mixture on heat, the more toasted flavor you’ll bring to the coconut.
3. Starting with a tablespoon, scoop an even amount of the chocolatey blended mixture into each lined muffin cup. Press date mixture with the back of your spoon to level the layer and get it to stick together.
4. Scoop two tablespoons of the coconut mixture into the muffin tins on top of the chocolate layer. Press down with the flat of your spoon to compress the mixture and get everything to stick together.
5. Chill muffin tin in the refrigerator for 15 minutes.
6. Remove liners from your chocolate coconut pecan cups and store in an airtight container in the refrigerator.
Enjoy whenever that sweet tooth hits!
