Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 150 grams Cocoa butter
- 60 grams Cocoa powder
- 120 ml Maple syrup
- 100 ml Coconut cream
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 1 pinch Sea salt
- 75 grams Natural almond butter
- 40 grams Powdered sugar
- 50 grams Chopped nuts (optional)
Instructions
Start by making the chocolate coating. Melt the cocoa butter in a heatproof bowl set over a pot of simmering water (double boiler), ensuring the bottom of the bowl doesn't touch the water.
Once melted, whisk in the cocoa powder and maple syrup until smooth. Remove from heat and stir in the vanilla extract and a pinch of sea salt.
Pour a small amount of the chocolate mixture into silicone candy molds, just enough to coat the bottom and sides evenly. Tap the molds gently to remove air bubbles.
Place the molds in the fridge or freezer to harden for about 10 minutes.
Meanwhile, prepare the filling by mixing the coconut cream, almond butter, and powdered sugar in a small bowl until you achieve a smooth consistency.
If using, fold in the chopped nuts for added texture.
Once the chocolate shells have set, fill each mold with the almond butter mixture, leaving a small gap at the top for sealing with more chocolate.
Cover the filling with the remaining chocolate mixture, ensuring it reaches the edges to encase the filling completely.
Return the filled molds to the fridge or freezer for another 20 minutes, or until fully set.
Carefully pop the bon bons out of the molds and store them in an airtight container in the refrigerator until ready to serve.
