These little Gluten-Free No-Bake Chocolate and Peanut Butter Cupcakes fit the bill just perfectly. The cupcake liner is actually made from melted chocolate. they were so tasty, and a nice little bite size too. The finalists for the first Desserts week is being announced on Wednesday, I have my fingers, toes & eyes crossed that it will be ‘my’ round. After going through the 4 rounds, I just felt so much more passionate about the desserts and baking than I did about any of the cooking rounds. Baking is where my heart truly is. Here’s hoping!! 🙂

These look sooo good, but my son is allergic to peanuts… you think subing sunbutter would work? They are pretty much the same consistency.

These are heavenly. So light and moreish.
But can anyone suggest a substitute for the chocolate cases as in the summer the chocolate cases will melt so quickly!

Need to try these, this summer! And gotta try that curl technique!

made these for Thanksgiving. Hubby – who doesn’t eat much for sweets or baking – LOVES them. So tasty. They take effort to make, but once you get used to the different steps, it’s pretty easy. Must be fool proof too. I’ve never done anything like this before, and only lost one chocolate cup in the process – let it get too warm and soft before I tried to peel the paper cup off.
Jeanine Friesen says
They are easy, aren’t they? Such a simple thing, yet they look so fancy. 🙂 Glad to hear they were a hit!

I have a question for you. I made these for Thanksgiving and they turned out great. I made them again tonight, but I had a problem. The chocolate did not curl. I’m not sure what I did differently this time. Rather than curling, it flaked and crumbled. I put the thin chocolate shavings on the cups, but I wish I knew what I did wrong that the chocolate didn’t curl. Any ideas?

Love, love your videos. I never would have tried making these but now that I have seen the video and how easy they are, they are officially on the Christmas dessert list. Thank you.
