    5. Assemble the cups:
      Pour the chocolate ganache into each hollow. Place one strawberry into the center. If needed, top off with a little more ganache to level with the crust.
    6. Chill & serve:
      Freeze for at least 30 minutes, then gently remove from the paper liners. Serve chilled on a dessert plate or in a serving bowl.
