INGREDIENTS
8 oz. (226g) room temperature cream cheese
1/2 cup (50g) graham cracker crumbs
1/4 cup (32g) powdered sugar
1/4 tsp. red food coloring
2 Tbsp. of unsweetened cocoa powder
1.5 cups (270g) of chocolate
SUPPLIES
A mixer
A silicone mold
A cooling rack
A spatula
A cutting board
A sheet of SilPat
DIRECTIONS
Temper the chocolate, put the mold on a rack, and fill the cavities with chocolate.
Flip the mold over and let the chocolate drain out onto the SilPat.
Tap the bottom of the mold to help the chocolate find its way out.
Tidy up the rack and the mold, then leave the chocolate in the mold and on the SilPat to set.
Whisk the cream cheese until it’s nice and smooth.
Add the graham cracker crumbs, sugar, food coloring, and cocoa powder.
Mix until it’s fully combined.
Once the chocolate in the mold has set, add some filling to the chocolate cups, leaving room at the top for more chocolate.
Dip a spoon (or a clean finger) in water and use it to smooth out the filling.
Remelt the chocolate that was drained on to the SilPat.
Pour the chocolate over the filling, making sure it gets to the edges of the cavities, and let it set.
