Servings 8 PEANUT BUTTER CUPS
Ingredients
Chocolate Layer:
- 1 cup dark chocolate
- 1 tbsp coconut oil
- 2 tbsp peanut butter
- 3 tbsp quinoa crisps
Peanut Butter Filling:
- 1/3 cup peanut butter
- 1 tbsp maple syrup
- 1 tbsp coconut flour
Instructions
- Begin by melting chocolate chips and coconut oil in a medium bowl in the microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring well after each round until the chocolate is smooth and creamy.
- Mix in 2 tbsp of peanut butter and 3 tbsp of quinoa crisps. Set aside.
- In a small bowl, combine peanut butter and maple syrup. Gently fold in the coconut flour until the peanut butter thickens.
- Add about 1/2 tbsp of the chocolate mixture to each silicon cupcake liner.
- Roll 1 tsp of the peanut butter mixture into a ball, then flatten slightly. Place it in the center of each silicon liner without touching the sides.
- Top with more chocolate and freeze until fully firm.
- Once firm, remove from the liners and enjoy!
Notes
- Remember to melt your chocolate with 1 tbsp of oil in the microwave for best results.
- Silicon cupcake liners are recommended for easy removal and cleanup.
- Using a cookie scoop for adding the chocolate ensures a quick and mess-free process, with approximately 1/2 scoop per liner.
