Caramel Delite Oat Cups
Servings 12
Ingredients
**Oat Layer:**
- – 1 1/2 cups quick-cooking oats
- – 1/2 tablespoon maple syrup
- – 1/3 cup cookie butter melted
- – 1-2 tablespoons water as needed
**Chocolate Layer:**
- – 3/4 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
- – 2 tablespoons coconut oil
**Coconut Layer:**
- – 1/3 cup creamy cashew butter
- – 1/3 cup cookie butter melted
- – 1 cup unsweetened shredded coconut
**Top Layer:**
- – Remaining chocolate from the chocolate layer
Instructions
- Line a metal muffin pan with paper liners or use a silicone muffin pan (no need to line a silicone pan).
- **Make the chocolate layer:** Combine the chocolate chips and coconut oil in a microwave-safe bowl. Heat on high for 20-second increments, stirring between each, until melted.
- Scoop 1 teaspoon of the melted chocolate into the bottom of each muffin cup. Spread it evenly across the bottom using the back of a spoon or your finger.
- **Make the oat layer:** Mix the quick-cooking oats, maple syrup, and melted cookie butter in a bowl. If the mixture is dry, add 1-2 teaspoons of water. Scoop about 2 tablespoons of the oat mixture over the chocolate layer and press firmly. Freeze the muffin pan for 5 minutes.
- **Make the coconut layer:** Combine the cashew butter, melted cookie butter, and shredded coconut in a bowl. Scoop 1 tablespoon of the coconut mixture onto the oat layer and spread evenly.
- Transfer the remaining melted chocolate to a piping bag or plastic bag. Snip the tip and drizzle the chocolate over the coconut layer in a zigzag pattern.
- Place the muffin pan in the freezer for at least 30 minutes to an hour to set.
- Once set, remove the oat cups from the muffin pan and transfer them to a freezer bag. Store in the freezer.
Notes
– If you don’t like semi-sweet chocolate, you can use milk chocolate instead.
– We don’t recommend using rolled oats; they would be too tough.
– Make sure to let the oat cups set and firm up before storing them in the freezer.
– Let the cups thaw at room temperature for 20 minutes before serving, or store them in the fridge.
