Toasted Almond Cup Ingredients

Method

Toasted Almond Cup Directions

  1. 1

    Toast the Almonds

    Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Spread the almonds on a baking sheet and toast them in the oven for about 10 minutes, or until golden brown and fragrant. Let them cool.

  2. 2

    Prepare the Chocolate Mixture

    In a saucepan over low heat, melt the butter. Stir in the granulated sugar, cocoa powder, and pinch of salt until well combined. Remove from heat and mix in the vanilla extract.

  3. 3

    Combine Ingredients

    In a mixing bowl, combine the toasted almonds (reserve some for topping), milk chocolate chips, and the chocolate mixture. Stir until the chocolate chips are melted and everything is well incorporated.

  4. 4

    Prepare the Cream Topping

    In a separate bowl, whisk the heavy cream and powdered sugar until soft peaks form.

  5. 5

    Assemble the Cups

    Spoon the almond-chocolate mixture into dessert cups. Top with whipped cream and sprinkle with reserved toasted almonds.

  6. 6

    Chill and Serve

    Refrigerate the cups for at least 30 minutes to set before serving. Enjoy your Toasted Almond Cups!
