These Pumpkin Caramel Chocolate Cups are a simple no-bake Fall dessert recipe! Dark chocolate envelopes silky smooth pumpkin caramel.

Oh my Fall.

What more can I say?

Pumpkin + caramel + Fall spice enveloped in a chocolate cup.

I’m in for this Pumpkin Week recipe!

I love how simple these Pumpkin Caramel Chocolate Cups are. They are the perfect two-bite sweet treat and pretty guilt free, if you ask me. We use 85% dark chocolate in this recipe. It's practically a vitamin when you get it that potent. Right?

Okay, maybe that’s wishful thinking, but a girl can dream. Regardless, the dark chocolate is the perfect slightly bitter complement to the silky and sweet caramel filling.

The caramel is not only over the moon delicious, it's also fuss-free. It is a no-cook recipe made with a few basic ingredients that give these Caramel Pumpkin Chocolate Cups their Fall flavor.

• Dates: caramel flavor and sweetness.
• Pumpkin puree: what would these Pumpkin Caramel Chocolate Cups be without a little pumpkin?
• Coconut milk: we add a splash of the full-fat kind to get the mixture to blend. Bonus: the fat from the coconut milk gives our filling a luxurious creamy texture.
• Coconut butter: this helps our filling to thicken up to a spoonable texture. Don't worry, these Pumpkin Caramel Chocolate Cups won't taste like coconut.
• A splash of vanilla: a little gourmet sweetness.
• Pumpkin pie spice: make that pumpkin taste extra pumpkin-y.
• Salt: minor ingredient with major importance. It makes all the flavors shine.

Get your daily vitamin C(hocolate) with a side of caramel.
