Ingredients

  • 200 grams dark chocolate, melted
  • 2 teaspoons coconut oil
  • 1/2 cup all-natural peanut butter unsweetened

Optional add-ons

  • chia seeds
  • sea salt

Instructions

  • 1. Melt the dark chocolate with the coconut oil.  I usually melt in 20 second intervals in a heat-proof bowl in the microwave.  You can also use a double-boiler. 
  • 2. Pour about a tablespoon of the chocolate into your mould.  I used silicone muffin liners or you can also use regular paper muffin liners. Pop them into the freezer for 5 minutes to set.
  • 3. Take it out of the freezer once set.  Scoop about a teaspoon of peanut-butter in each cup then sprinkle chia seeds on top.  And pop again into the freezer to set.
  • 4. Lastly pour the remaining melted dark chocolate into each mould.  And pop into the freezer one last time to set.  Sprinkle with some sea salt as you wish. Store in an airtight container.

Notes

VARIATIONS TO THIS RECIPE: Instead of chia seeds, you can add chopped walnuts, pistachios, or dried fruits like cranberries or apricots.
