Instructions
- Place chocolate and cocoa butter in a microwave-safe container. Heat in 30-second bursts, stirring after each burst of heat, until completely melted.
- Coat the inside edges of a 12-hole silicone mini muffin tray with melted chocolate. Reserve remaining chocolate for use in Step 10.
- Refrigerate chocolate cups.
- Prepare the raspberry jam by combining the gelatin and water in a small bowl. Allow gelatin to bloom.
- Add the remaining raspberry-jam ingredients to a small saucepan. Heat over medium-low heat. Stir continuously, mashing the raspberries as your stir.
- Cook for 3-4 minutes, then add the gelatin. Stir the mixture to dissolve gelatin.
- Remove from heat and allow to come to room temperature.
- Add almond butter and powdered erythritol to a medium mixing bowl. Mix well. If your almond butter is more firm, you may want to heat the mixture in the microwave for a few seconds.
- Remove chocolate cups from the fridge. Cover the base of each chocolate cup with a teaspoon of almond filling and top with a teaspoon of raspberry jam.
- Cover filled chocolate cups with remaining chocolate. Refrigerate for 1 hour.
- Remove chocolates from the tray. Enjoy!
