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!
This is the perfect drink for a hot summer day. If you are in the north east, like me you know these days are numbered, the leaves are already falling! It’s inspired by the Venezuelan drink, Tizana, which is made with chopped fruit and grenadine and can be spiked.
