Quick chocolate treats, are no-bake delights with a heart of peanut butter and mixed nuts and a sprinkle of coconut. To prepare these protein-rich fit sweets, I melted the chocolate in a double boiler. Alternatively, you can melt it in the microwave, taking care not to overcook it, or it will become lumpy instead of creamy. You can prepare these quick chocolate treats well in advance and store them for up to 1 week in the refrigerator in a box or plastic bag; you can alternatively wrap each quick chocolate treat individually in a single portion bag or a piece of plastic wrap or foil. Try them also in the version with white chocolate and a nutella heart. Now let’s see how to prepare some delicious quick chocolate treats, and if you try the recipe, let me know. Barbara

Procedure to prepare Quick Chocolate Treats
Begin preparing the Quick Chocolate Treats by finely chopping the dark chocolate.
Place it in a jug with a handle that can be attached to the pot with hot water to melt it in a bain-marie. If you don’t have a jug, you can place it in a smaller pot than the one containing the water.
Place paper liners on the muffin tray, pour a first layer of melted chocolate into the muffin liners.
Chop the mixed nuts with a knife
Pour the peanut butter and powdered sugar into a bowl and mix well.
Once the powdered sugar is well incorporated, add the nuts and combine them with the peanut butter
Spoon a tablespoon of peanut butter and nuts into the center of each liner.
Cover with melted chocolate and smooth it out
Sprinkle with coconut and place in the refrigerator to rest for 2 hours.
Once they have rested and the chocolate is solid, take the Quick Chocolate Treats out, remove the paper liners, and enjoy them.
How to store Quick Chocolate Treats
They can be stored for 7 days in the refrigerator inside a bag or container
