Ingredients
  

  • 2 bars dark chocolate
  • 3-4 tablespoons peanut butter
  • 1 teaspoon maple syrup
  • 20 drops CBD oil
  • flaky salt

Instructions
 

  • First, gather all your ingredients and prepare them in the right amounts. That makes it so much easier and more fun and you're less likely to forget anything. 
  • Line a muffin pan with 6 liners.
  • Combine peanut butter, maple syrup and CBD oil and mix well.
  • Now you're tempering the dark chocolate for the shiny and crisp cake glaze using the seeding method. Don’t worry—it’s not as complicated as it might seem at first glance.
    Finely chop the chocolate to make melting easier and ensure even heat distribution. Prepare a saucepan with a little water and heat it gently so that the water simmers without boiling. Place a melting pot over the saucepan, ensuring the bottom doesn’t touch the water, or use a heatproof bowl set on top. Melt about 2/3 of the chopped chocolate in the pot, stirring regularly until it is completely melted. Monitor the temperature carefully; the chocolate should reach a range of about 113 to 120°F (45 to 49°C).
    Remove the pot from the heat and stir in nearly all of the remaining chocolate pieces. This cools the mixture and helps it crystallize properly. Leave a few pieces aside for adjustments if needed. The chocolate should now reach a temperature of around 89°F (32°C), feeling cooler and slightly thicker but still workable.
    To check if the tempering is successful, spread a little chocolate on parchment paper. After a few minutes, it should appear shiny, firm, and smooth when set.
  • Distribute half of the melted chocolate in the liners and pull the chocolate on the sides up a bit with the spoon. Then add the peanut mixture in the middle of the cups. Spoon the other half of the melted chocolate on top of the peanut butter mix and sprinkle with fleur de sel. Put in the fridge for a few minutes to set.
  • Store in the fridge in an airtight container.
