Pork Free Peppermint Cocoa Fruit & Nut Cups

These little chocolate cups are the kind of treat that looks like it came from a fancy confectionery, but they come together with a handful of wholesome ingredients and a silicone muffin pan. A base of rich dark chocolate — over 70% cacao — gets a cool hit of peppermint extract, then gets molded into bite-sized shells that cradle a jewel-bright filling of fresh strawberries, blueberries, walnuts, and almonds. A drizzle of maple syrup and a pinch of sea salt tie everything together with just the right balance of sweet, fruity, and nutty. Every single ingredient here is naturally free from pork and pork-derived products, so there's no label-scanning or substitution stress involved — just clean, straightforward components you can feel good about. The technique of brushing the chocolate up the sides of each cavity and then sealing the top creates a satisfying snap when you bite in, revealing that colorful fruit-and-nut center. A finishing scatter of flaky sea salt is optional, but honestly, don't skip it — it makes the chocolate flavor pop. These keep well in the fridge for a few days, which means you can make a full batch and have an impressive, fuss-free dessert ready whenever you need it.
