Chocolate Shot Cups


Make your own chocolate shot cups

Items Needed:

Shot cup chocolate mold  www.citychocolates.com
1 bag chocolate wafers
1 basic kitchen knife
1 pair of scissors

Step 1:
Cut the shot cups out of the chocolate mold individually. This will make the process easier.









Step 2:
Melt a portion of the chocolate in the microwave for 30 second intervals, stirring the chocolate occasionally. Once the chocolate is smooth and creamy, fill the chocolate cups individually. With the cup full, tap it onto a firm surface to ensure that the chocolate is filling the entire cup.

 
Step 3: Tip the shot cup filled with chocolate over the melted bowl of chocolate, allowing the chocolate to pour out of the cup. Use a basic kitchen knife to tap the chocolate out of the cup. This will create a thin layer of chocolate on the inside of the cup. Make sure the chocolate remaining inside the cup isn't too thin because this will determine the sturdiness of the cup.
 

 
Step 4: Once you've created a hollow chocolate shot cup, use the straight edge of the knife to scrape the excess chocolate off the top.
 

 
Step 5: With all the cups finished, place them in the refrigerator on a flat surface for about 30 minutes, or until the cups feel cold and hard.
 
 
Step 6: Remove the cups from the refrigerator once they feel secure enough to pop out of the plastic chocolate mold. Individually flip the cups one by one, using your thumbs to carefully push on the flat surface of the cup. This will separate the chocolate from the chocolate mold.
 
Step 7: Choose one of your favorite holiday drinks to fill each of the chocolate shot cups. A cold beverage will keep your chocolate shot cups from melting. Feel free to top it off with some delicious whipped cream or something decorative, such as cinnamon, confetti, or candy cane shavings.
 
Enjoy!!
