Tips and variations:
- I recommend using silicone muffin cups to make these - they ensure the chocolate doesn't stick and pops out easily.
- You can use either honey or maple syrup to sweeten these.
- If you don't have cacao powder, use cocoa powder instead.
- Coconut butter, coconut manna and coconut cream concentrate are all the same thing, so use whichever one you have on hand.
- To make this recipe vegan: use maple syrup instead of honey.
How to store:
I recommend storing these chocolate raspberry cups in the freezer. If you leave them out too long they will start to melt.
Frequently asked questions:
I do not recommend gifting these chocolates. If they are out of the freezer for too long they will start to melt which would make for a very messy gift.Â
I do not recommend using frozen raspberries for this recipe. They have too much liquid in them and will make the raspberry filling too runny.Â
