Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 12 pieces Frozen phyllo cups
- 1 cup Butterscotch chips
- 0.33 cup Semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 0.25 cup Heavy cream
- 0.33 cup Pecans
- 1 tablespoon Unsalted butter
- 0.125 teaspoon Sea salt (optional)
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).
Place the frozen phyllo cups on a baking sheet and bake for 3-5 minutes, or until slightly golden and crisp. Remove and cool completely.
Toast the pecans in a small dry skillet over medium heat for 2-3 minutes until fragrant. Remove from heat and roughly chop. Set aside.
In a small saucepan over low heat, melt the butterscotch chips and butter together, stirring continuously until smooth. Remove from heat.
In a microwave-safe bowl, combine the semi-sweet chocolate chips and heavy cream. Microwave in 15-second intervals, stirring in between, until the chocolate is melted and the mixture is glossy.
Carefully spoon 1 teaspoon of the melted butterscotch mixture into the base of each phyllo cup.
Top the butterscotch layer with a small spoonful of the melted chocolate mixture.
Sprinkle the chopped toasted pecans evenly over the chocolate and butterscotch layers.
Optionally, sprinkle a tiny pinch of sea salt on top of each cup for a salty-sweet finish.
Chill the filled phyllo cups in the refrigerator for 20 minutes to set the layers, then serve and enjoy!
