Flatten each ball into a thin disc.

Add chocolate and Scotch chips as filling, being careful not to overstuff.

Close the disc around the filling and shape it into an egg shape.

Flatten it back out into a disc.

Heat a skillet on medium low and add a little oil.

Cook each pupusa for about two minutes on each side until golden brown.

Prepare a sauce by mixing Greek yogurt and maple syrup to taste.

Serve the pupusas topped with the sauce.
