Note

Storage: Store finished cups in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks. Allow to sit at room temperature for 5 minutes before eating for best texture.

Variations: You can use smooth or crunchy peanut butter depending on your preference. For a nut-free version, substitute with sunflower seed butter, but note that the flavor profile will change slightly.

Tips: If the chocolate mixture becomes too thick before adding the marshmallows, microwave for an additional 10-15 seconds. Ensure the foil cups are placed snugly in the muffin pan to prevent them from tipping over when filled.
