these addictive treats are sure to be anyone’s favorite. the hint of salt in the chocolate makes a savory treat that will keep you coming back for more.
yields 20 mini cups
½ c. unsweetened cocoa powder ½ c. coconut oil, melted 2 tbsp. maple syrup ¼ tsp. salt ½ c. unsalted, smooth almond butter
to enjoy:
line a mini-cupcake pan with 20 liners. set aside.
combine the cocoa powder, coconut oil, maple syrup and salt in a small bowl. pour about a teaspoon of chocolate into each of the bottom of the cups, or until the bottom of the paper liner is completely covered. place in the freezer for 5 minutes, until hardened.
place a teaspoon of almond butter into each cup cavity and place in the freezer for an hour until firm. almond butter takes longer to firm than the chocolate.
finish off the cups by pouring a teaspoon of chocolate onto each cup. place in the freezer again until hardened. store in the fridge or freezer to keep from melting.
