Choco Fruit Cup

I made this over the weekend. Actually, I made the cups for the chat. But I also have a 21 month old kiddo who doesn't fancy chaat yet. But that doesn't stop her from trying to eat from our plates. So for her benefit, I made this choco fruit filing for the cups. She had a great time munching on it. She ate up all the fruit happily, esp that it was coated with chocolate. And then she munched separately on the cups. So its a hit with my kiddo. Lemme know if your kid likes it ...

The favourable reaction from my kiddo inspires me to send this to the event "Kids Delight" by Srivalli of Spicing your life.

Ingredients :
For the Cup
Semolina : 1 Cup
Oil : 2-3 tbsp
Water

For the Choco Fruit Filing
(You can choose the fruit of your choice.)
Apple : 1 Chopped
Pineapple : 4 tbsp chopped
Grapes : 10-12 Cut into Halves
Strawberry : 3-4 Chopped
Cream : 100 grams
Dark Chocolate : 100 grams
Sugar : 2 tsp



Recipe :
For Making the Cups
Take a bowl. Gather semolina, oil and salt. Mix it well. Add just about 2-3 tbsp of water and make a dough. Add more water if necessary but just a spoon at a time. Make a stiff dough. Cover with a wet cloth and keep aside for 15-20 minutes.

Preheat oven for 15 minutes.

Now take a small portion of that dough. Grease it mildly. Roll it like a poori. Make it very thin. Smooth the edges if necessary.

Grease the muffin moulds. Put that poori in a muffin mould and make sure to press it properly on the bottom and the sides. Bake it in that preheated oven at 180C for 20-25 mintues or till they turn golden brown in colour. Let them cool completely before using them. You can also store them in an airtight container for further use.



For Making The Choco Fruit Filing
Break the chocolate into pieces and keep in a bowl. Heat cream in a pan. Add the sugar. When the cream is beginning to boil, remove it from the flame and pour on the chocolate. Whisk it well till all the chocolate melts. Cool it for 5 minutes.

Add the fruits in the chocolate. Stir well so that all the fruits are covered well with chocolate. Refrigerate it for half hour.

Now take the cups and fill them with the fruits filing. Serve.
