Description
These chocolate peanut butter cups are nothing but pure perfection. Not only do they taste heavenly but they are a vegan, paleo, gluten free, and dairy free dessert.
Ingredients
- ½ cup dark chocolate of your choice

Instructions
- Add dark chocolate, walnut oil, and only 2 tablespoon of the peanut butter to a small saucepan.
- Heat over medium heat while stirring constantly.
- After ingredients are melted and mixed to a smooth texture, remove from heat.
- Add a small layer of your chocolate mixture to each mold.
- Next, drizzle some peanut butter on top (as much as you like) and add more of the chocolate mixture to the top.
- Make as many as you wish. If you have big molds it will only make about 4-5 chocolate cups. Smaller molds will make 10-15.
- Place in the freezer in an air tight container overnight.
Notes
You can use any size or type of silicone baking mold that you like. You can also use paper muffin cups if you don’t have molds.
