Reese's (Almond) Butter Cups.

September 23, 2014

It's Tuesday, so what does that mean? If you guessed another dessert recipe, you're correct! (Okay, I don't know what one has to do with the other, but desserts rock). This dessert is perfect when you're craving something chocolate and cold. I really really miss peanut butter. I honestly think my next cheat meal might just be multiple spoonfuls of peanut butter. Okay, maybe not, but these little devils are perfect for my craving. They're so good, enjoy peeps!

Ingredients: 
  • 1 cup smooth almond butter 
  • 1/2 cup shredded coconut 
  • 1 tablespoon coconut oil
  • 1 tablespoon honey (if I made them again, I'd add one more tablespoon) 
  • 1 cup dark chocolate unsweetened chips (If again, I'd use 1 cups cocoa powder mixed with about a tablespoon of melted coconut oil)
How to Make: 
  1. Mix almond butter, coconut oil and honey in a bowl and microwave them until melted (about 45 seconds)
  2. Stir in shredded coconut
  3. Grease a muffin tin. 
  4. Add a spoonful of the mixture into the 12 muffin tins. 
  5. [Optional] If I made this again, I would freeze this part (the almond butter mixture) and then add the chocolate. 
  6. Place the chocolate chips (or cocoa powder/oil) in a bowl and microwave for about 1 minute. 
  7. Pour the melted chocolate over the almond butter. 
  8. The reason I would freeze the almond butter before pouring the chocolate over is to help the chocolate spread. When they were both melted and warm, it was just one big gooey mess, but they still turned out delish! 
  9. Its up to you people, I hope you love them!
the almond butter/honey/coconut oil mixture
 ....i might have put in some extra coconut
 see what I mean about the gooey (but yummy) mess?
all frozen and good! (Again, why I'd use cocoa powder, it would be thinner) 

Coti, you will LOVE these! 
Please disregard the peach in the back.

  3. 3 Researches REVEAL Why Coconut Oil Kills Fat.

    The meaning of this is that you actually get rid of fat by eating Coconut Fat (including coconut milk, coconut cream and coconut oil).

    These 3 researches from big medical journals are sure to turn the conventional nutrition world around!
