Chocolate Strawberry Cups

These Chocolate Strawberry Cups are like peanut butter cups, only they pack a fruity punch. A cinch to throw together, these no-bake delights come with super easy instructions and deliver a gorgeous presentation. The stunning dessert calls for lighter alternatives to heavier, traditional ingredients, like  fat-free cream cheese, sparing you (and your waistline!) a bunch of excess calories.
Preparing these delicious cups is easy: simply combine ingredients, allow to cool and set, prepare the chocolate, throw it all together, and enjoy! They're perfect for big events or a casual treat.

Ingredients
  • 1/2 cup strawberries, hulled
  • 1 tablespoon honey
  • 1 teaspoon lemon juice
  • 1/2 cup canned coconut milk
  • 1/3 cup fat-free cream cheese, softened
  • 5 ounces milk chocolate, coarsely chopped
  • Garnish:
  • 7 strawberries, quartered
  • Fresh mint leaves
Directions

Blend the strawberries with the honey and lemon juice until smooth.

In a medium bowl, whisk the coconut milk with the cream cheese until smooth. Add it to the strawberry puree, cover and refrigerate for 2 hours.

Put the chocolate in a small microwave proof bowl and microwave, stirring every 10 seconds at time, until melted. Be careful not to overcook.

Line a mini muffin tin with paper liners and pour a spoonful of melted chocolate in each. Rotate to coat all sides, and let harden, and peel off paper the paper liners.

Fill the chocolate cups with the strawberry cream, and top with the extra strawberries and mint leaves.
