Main Ingredients
- 4 oz chocolate, melted
- 1/2 cup pomegranate seeds
Instructions
- Prepare the muffin tin: Line a 24-cup mini muffin tin with paper liners to prevent sticking and for easy removal.
- Add melted chocolate: Spoon 2 teaspoons of melted chocolate into the bottom of each lined muffin cup, spreading it evenly.
- Top with pomegranate seeds: Sprinkle a generous amount of pomegranate seeds over the melted chocolate in each cup, ensuring good coverage.
- Drizzle more chocolate: Carefully drizzle additional melted chocolate over the pomegranate seeds to secure them in place.
- Chill until firm: Place the muffin tin in the refrigerator and chill for at least 20 minutes, or up to 2 days, until the chocolate is completely set and firm.
- Serve: Once firm, remove the chocolate pom poms from the liners and serve immediately or keep refrigerated until ready to enjoy.
Notes
- Use high-quality chocolate for the best flavor and smooth melting.
- Make sure the melted chocolate is slightly cooled before drizzling to avoid melting the pomegranate seeds.
- These treats can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days.
- You can use either dark, milk, or white chocolate depending on your preference.
- For a festive twist, sprinkle a pinch of sea salt over the top before chilling.
