Dark Chocolate Nutella Cups
Is there anything better than chocolate and Nutella? These dark chocolate Nutella cups are so easy to make, unbelievably delicious, and the perfect snack to satisfy your sweet craving. I love having them in the house because I am constantly craving something sweet, and it is the best way to satisfy my sweet tooth.
Ingredients
Filling
- ½ cup (140 grams) Nutella
- ½ cup (50 grams) almond flour
- 4-5 (60 grams) pitted dates If the dates are hard, soak them in warm water for 5 minutes to soften them up.
Chocolate
- 1 ½ cups (270 grams) dark chocolate (chocolate chips or chopped chocolate works!) semi-sweet chocolate works, too!
- 1 tablespoon vegetable oil or another neutral oil
Instructions
Filling
- Line a cupcake tin with baking cups. Set aside.
- In a food processor or blender, combine the Nutella, almond flour and dates until combined. The mixture will be crumbly.
- Scoop a tablespoon of mixture and roll it into a ball then flatten it in between your palms. Flatten them so that they are a hair smaller than the baking cup. Set aside.
Chocolate
- Melt together the chocolate and oil in the microwave in 15 second increments, stirring in between each increment until completely melted.
Assemble
- Spoon a bit of the melted chocolate into the bottom of each baking cup and gently tilt the pan so that the chocolate covers the entirety of the bottom of the baking cups. Place one disc of the Nutella filling on top of the chocolate, then spoon more chocolate on top.
- Gently give the pan a shake so the chocolate covers the entire Nutella filling disc. Place the pan in the fridge for 30 minutes to one hour until set.
- Top with flaky sea salt and enjoy!
- Store in an airtight container in the fridge, or for more of a Reese's texture, store in an airtight container at room temperature.
