Bloody Cups for Halloween!

These Bloody Cups are filled with a raspberry sauce – making it the perfect treat for Halloween! They are vegan, gluten-free and only need 3 ingredients!

They are vegan and gluten-free and only need 3 ingredients. They are pretty much like usual Peanut Butter Cups, but filled with a simple raspberry sauce. I love the combination of the sweet chocolate and tart raspberries – if you want to make this dessert for children, feel free to add a bit more sweetener to the raspberry filling.

Recipe

Ingredients

1 cup frozen raspberries
1 tablespoon rice syrup or maple syrup or agave syrup
1 cup + 3/4 cup (150g + 100g) vegan baking chocolate (or chocolate chips)

Instructions

Heat the frozen raspberries in a small pot on medium-high heat until soft, mash the raspberries until there are no large chunks anymore & add the rice syrup. Give it a mix and set aside to cool.
In a double boiler, melt 1 cup of the chocolate. Meanwhile place 8 muffin liners in a muffin pan.
Place about 1 1/2 teaspoon of melted chocolate in the muffin liners and tilt them, so the chocolate spreads to the sides. Repeat for all the muffin liners and place it into the fridge for a few minutes (until the chocolate hardens).
Melt 3/4 cup of vegan chocolate in the double boiler. Meanwhile add about a teaspoon of the raspberry filling into the chocolate coated muffin liners (place it in the middle). Once the chocolate has melted, pour it over the raspberry filling. Tilt it a bit so the top is covered with the chocolate completely. Let it harden in the fridge for about 5 minutes.
Once the chocolate is hard, carefully remove the cupcake liners and enjoy.
