Mini Dark Chocolate Tahini Cups
These Mini Dark Chocolate Tahini Cups are the best 6 ingredient treat to keep on hand for when that sweet craving strikes! They're made with dark chocolate, tahini, honey, a little bit of powdered sugar, vanilla extract, and salt, so they're on the healthier side! The combination of flavors is absolutely delicious, and they make for a great gift too!
Ingredients
- 5 ounces chopped dark chocolate
- 1/4 cup tahini*
- 1 tablespoon honey
- 1 tablespoon powdered sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- flaky sea salt for finishing*
- mini muffin liners
Instructions
-
Place chocolate in a microwave safe bowl and microwave in 30 second increments until melted. (Mine usually takes 1 1/2 minutes total.) Alternately, you can melt your chocolate over a double boiler. Just be careful not to overheat, or else your chocolate will seize up!
-
Line a mini muffin tin with liners. Spoon about a teaspoon of chocolate into each liner, and using a spoon, push the chocolate up about halfway on all sides. Repeat on all liners. Place muffin tin in the freezer for 5-10 minutes or until the chocolate hardens.
-
While chocolate cups are in the freezer, make the filling. In a medium bowl, combine the tahini, honey, powdered sugar, vanilla, and salt. Stir together until mixture thickens and all ingredients are incorporated.
-
Once chocolate has hardened, fill each cup with about 2-3 teaspoons of filling (depending on how much you want). Cover each cup with melted chocolate until the filling is completely covered. Finish with a sprinkle of flaky sea salt and place in the freezer again until set. Cups will keep in the fridge for up to 1 month!
is my end-all-be-all favorite tahini. It's incredible, and I haven't found any brand that comes close in terms of flavor and texture.
is the flaky sea salt I use and love!
