Magic (Because They'll Disappear ) Vegan Chocolate Peanut Butter Cups

Hello Baby, how you doin? 

Howdy Penguins!

Today I have such a glorious treat for ya'll chocolate and peanut butter lovers. Think Reeses Cups, but better because they are vegan and sort of healthier.

I always have me some virgin coconut oil in my house, so all I had to do was get some 100% cocoa powder. I used Hersheys. You will also need a muffin tray and some liners. This treat is super as a after dinner bliss-out or just whenever you need a major hit of antioxidants, because puppies that's what pure chocolate is all about, without all the nasty dairy and hydrogenated oils.


What do I need?

1/2 cup of pure coca powder (unsweetened)
1/2 cup of pure coconut oil
1/2-3/4th cup (depending if you like it sweeter) brown sugar - you can us regular white too
1 teaspoon vanilla
3/4th teaspoon sea salt
3 tablespoons water or almond milk
6 tablespoons of peanut butter (one for each cup)

What do I do?

Prepare by lining your muffin pan with paper liners and keep aside.You can also use foil if you have no liners.

In a small pan (on very low flame) heat up your coconut oil. Now in a cup mix your sugar with your 3 tablespoons of water/almond milk till it's pasty and add to your coconut oil, dissolve by stirring continuously on low heat. Then add your vanilla essence, sea salt, and cocoa powder and keep STIRRING, until it's super smooth. Make sure there are no lumps. As it heats up it will began to thicken just a little, before it start to really boil, turn off the heat.

Now spoon in a layer of your chocolate sauce on each muffin liner. Then add one spoon of peanut butter in the middle of each muffin section.

One layer of chocolate, one layer of peanut butter. Only one more layer to go!

After that just top on another spoon of chocolate over each one so it covers the peanut butter. You should have enough for 6 medium muffin sections. Now pop that pan into the freezer for an hour. TAH-DAH you have bomb ass chocolate peanut butter cups and none of them cows had to MOO for it!

This is how it should look before you pop it into the freezer. Add a nut for garnish, or just go rouge! 

Pro-tip- sea salt really pop the flavour of chocolate, don't ever leave it out. Salt for the most part always brings out the flavour in sweet so 1/2 -3/4 teaspoon can make many bakes delicious.

Now groove to a trendy beat, eat your peanut butter cup, pray for more world peace and less bull shit!

Till next time.
