Valentine's Day Mini White Chocolate Cups
Super easy to make Valentine's Day Mini White Chocolate Cups recipe. The perfect dessert to make for your loved one, for your friends or as a treat for yourself.
One of my students asked me the other day what I would like more: roses or chocolate.
I am sure you can guess what I said.
Chocolate on Valentine's Day is 100% a requirement for me. So now I made a chocolate specifically for Valentine's Day. So that instead of going out and buying overpriced chocolate, you can make some personal "handmade" chocolates. Way more thoughtful, and probably a lot more delicious.
Seriously not joking about how overpriced Valentine's Day chocolate is. I went in to my local grocery store the other day to see whether or not I wanted to buy some chocolate for John on Valentine's Day.. only to find that the cheapest box of chocolate is around $20.
$20!!! I could buy lunch for that. On 3 separate days! They are scamming all of those suckers in love.
This is why my favourite day is the day after Valentine's Day. It is called 75% off chocolate day, and I am a full supporter of it.
But in the meanwhile, I will be making these Valentine's Day heart chocolates for John, waiting for February 15th where I can buy a cart load of chocolate, that will probably last us for.. around a week.
Yeah, we like chocolate around here.
And this chocolate satisfies all our needs. All you need is 3 ingredients:
- white chocolate chips
- coconut oil
- red food coloring
That is it!!
I am almost sure you have all of those ingredients at home. And if you don't,well. I am sure they will cost less than $20 all together.
Make them for your Valentine. Make them for your best friend. Or, make them for yourself. Because we all deserve a little chocolate in our life now and again.
Even though now and again means everyday to me.

Valentine's Day Mini White Chocolate Cups
Ingredients
- 1 cup white chocolate chips
- ¼ cup coconut oil
- 1 drop red food colouring gel
Instructions
- Line a mini muffin pan with 16 paper liners. Set aside.
- Place all of the ingredients except the food colouring in a microwave safe medium bowl. Heat in the microwave for 30 seconds and mix until smooth. If not fully melted, repeat the process until a smooth consistency forms.
- Divide evenly in the paper liners. Add a drop of red food colouring to the small remaining amount of chocolate in your bowl. Add drops of the coloured chocolate to your chocolate cups, and create hearts with a toothpick.
- Transfer to the freezer until hardened. Place in an airtight container, and store in the fridge or freezer.

OOOh I can get down with this recipe!! Way better than overpriced chocolate at the store! I live for the sale chocolate afterwards though and have no shame about that either!

We don't celebrate Valentine's Day here, but certain things (like, uuhmm.. chocolate) make me reconsider that XD
