Easy Tahini Date Caramel Cup Freezer Treats
Making chocolates is a meditative process for me. The tahini date caramel can be eaten on its own and stored in a jar in the fridge if you aren't up for melting the chocolate or making the cups. These are best as freezer treats, as the coconut oil will melt. They have a beautiful chocolate snap with a creamy center. This recipe was originally featured on justBobbi.com.

Instructions:
Melt the chocolate, coconut oil, and salt together. You can do this in a small saucepan (be careful to not burn). You can also heat in the microwave. If you choose this method, cook for 30-seconds and then stir and heat at 10-second increments until melted, stirring each time until melted.
Pour melted the melted chocolate mixture into a liquid measuring cup with a spout (it’s easier to pour).
Line a mini muffin tray with mini cupcake liners.
Add a small drop of the melted chocolate mixture on the bottom of the liner about 1/4 tsp. and then add 1 tsp. of tahini date caramel on top of the melted chocolate mixture.
Top the cup with the remaining melted chocolate mixture and fill it 3/4 of the way full.
Place in the freezer 2–4 hours. Store in an airtight container up to one month.
Chef Carla Notes:
- Not in the mood the make the chocolates? just make the sauce!
Feliz Latinè Heritage Month! It’s celebrated September 15th through October 15th. I am a proud Latinè, my father is from Chile. I am excited to share my heritage through a paid partnership with Pinterest this month. One of the deepest ways I’ve connected with my Latinè heritage is by drinking ceremonial cacao daily. It’s a plant medicine that has been drunk for thousands of years by the Olmecs, the Mayans, the Toltecs, the Aztecs, the Incas, and other cultures. It’s known as a heart opener and it’s cracked mine wide open to opportunities and the potential of my life.
