Ingredients
  

  • 180 g Vego Melts or other vegan chocolate
  • 3 tablespoons brown almond butter
  • 2 teaspoons maple syrup
  • 1 teaspoon fleur de Sel

Instructions
 

  • First, prepare all ingredients and equipment. This makes cooking much more relaxed and you won't forget anything 🙂
  • Place six paper muffin cups into a muffin tin.
  • Mix the almond butter with maple syrup and a pinch of fleur de sel.

  • Now temper the chocolate using the seeding method. It's not as complicated as it looks at first glance: Finely chop 1/3 of the chocolate. This makes it easier to melt and ensures even heat distribution. Then set aside.
    Fill a saucepan with a little water and heat it on low. The water should not boil, just gently simmer.
    Hang a melting pot over the saucepan so that the bottom of the melting pot does not touch the water. You can also use a heatproof bowl placed on top of the saucepan.
    Add the other 2/3 of the chocolate to the melting pot. Stir regularly until the chocolate is completely melted. Keep an eye on the temperature: the chocolate should not get hotter than necessary for melting (40–45°C).
    Remove the melting pot from the double boiler and quickly stir in almost all of the remaining chopped chocolate. Press larger pieces against the sides with the spoon, this helps the chocolate melt evenly. This lowers the temperature to approx. 30°C and crystallises the chocolate.
  • Distribute half of the melted chocolate among the muffin cups and use the spoon to push the chocolate slightly up the sides. Then add the almond butter mixture to the centre. Spoon the other half of the melted chocolate over the almond butter and spread it in a spiral. Sprinkle the remaining fleur de sel on top.
