2 large marshmallows, cut in half and sides trimmed
Cooking spray
Pastry brush
Ice Cube Tray
Instructions
Place the chocolate chips and coconut oil in a microwave safe measuring cup or bowl. Microwave the chocolate in 30 second intervals until melted (stir between each interval) should take about 90 seconds depending on your microwave. Spray the ice cube tray lightly with cooking spray, and use the pastry brush to coat all sides up to the top of the tray. Also, use the brush to remove any excess cooking spray so there is not a pool in the bottom of the trays. fill the ice cube tray about 1/3 full with your choice of chocolate. Allow the chocolate to sit in the ice cubes tray for 2-3 minutes. Tilt the trays and rotate to make sure that the melted chocolate coats all of the sides of the tray. Put your chocolate shells into the freezer for 1-2 minutes until the chocolate has slightly thickened, but is still liquid. Tilt the trays and rotate again to make sure that the melted chocolate coats all of the sides of the tray with a thicker coat of chocolate this time. Allow the chocolate to
sit in the ice cube tray for 2-3 minutes until it is mostly set. While the chocolate is setting prepare the fillings. Take each caramel and mash in 1 teaspoon of peanuts so that it is well combined. Cut the marshmallows in half lengthwise and trim the sides to fir in the ice cube tray. Fill the chocoaltes with soft caramel chews and chopped peanuts, peanut butter, or marshmallows. Try to make sure that the filling stays in the center and does not touch the sides of the tray too much or the chocolate may stick in those spot when they are unmolded. If needed, refresh the melted chocolate by heating in the microwave for 20 second intervals, stirring between each, until the chocolate is melted again. Pour the melted chocolate over the filling until it is covered by a layer of chocolate. Tap the ice cube tray on the table to allow the air bubbles to escape and the chocolate to settle. Push down the marshmallows if they start to float to the top of the tray and show through the
chocolate. Pour more melted chocolate over the filling if needed until it is covered by a layer of chocolate again. Clean the top of the ice cube tray so that you can see the partitions that separate the cubes. This will help prevent your chocolate from sticking together and help them to release from the tray when it is time to unmold them. Place the trays on a flat surface in the freezer for about an hour until the chocolate has hardened. Remove the trays on a flat surface and allow to temper for about 5-10 minutes. Unmold the chocolates by lightly twisting the ice cube tray as if you were trying to release ice. Turn the tray upside down over a sheet tray lined with waxed paper or parchment paper to catch the chocolates. You may beed to lightly tap the bottom of the tray to coax the chocolate to release or you may need to twist the ice cube tray a few more times.
