Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

For the base
  • 1 cup graham cracker crumbs
  • 1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 1/4 cup powdered sugar
  • 1/2 cup butter, melted Can be substituted with coconut oil
For the filling and topping
  • 1 cup marshmallow fluff
  • 1 cup chocolate chips Use for melting and topping

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Grease a muffin tin lightly to ensure Mallo Cups come out easily later.
  2. In a mixing bowl, combine the graham cracker crumbs, cocoa powder, and powdered sugar. Pour in the melted butter and stir until the mixture resembles wet sand.
  3. Firmly press the mixture into the muffin tin, creating a small cup shape with sides about 1/4 inch thick.
  4. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and bake the crumb crusts for about 8-10 minutes. Let them cool completely afterward.
  5. Carefully spoon a generous amount of marshmallow fluff into each cup.
  6. Melt the chocolate chips in the microwave, stirring every 30 seconds until smooth.
  7. Pour the melted chocolate over the marshmallow fluff, spreading it evenly to create a nice chocolate coating.
  8. Pop the muffin tin into the fridge for about 30 minutes to allow the chocolate to set.

Notes

Store Mallo Cups in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to a week, or freeze for up to three months. To reheat, let sit at room temperature or microwave for about 10 seconds.
