Ingredients

  • 4 oz sugar-free chocolate chips (or 90% dark chocolate)
  • 1 tablespoon Coconut Oil for added creaminess
  • 1 cup smooth peanut butter
  • 1 teaspoon Allulose (optional)
  • 1/2 teaspoon Salt (only if peanut butter is unsalted)

Instructions

  • Step 1: Prepare Your Muffin Cups - Place your silicone muffin cups on a baking sheet.
  • Step 2: Melt the Chocolate - In a microwave-safe bowl, combine the chocolate and coconut oil. Heat in 30-second intervals, stirring until melted and smooth.

  • Step 4: Make the Peanut Butter Filling - In a mixing bowl, combine peanut butter and optional allulose. Add salt if needed, and mix until creamy.
  • Step 5: Add the Peanut Butter Layer - Spoon the peanut butter mixture on top of the set chocolate base, filling each cup about 3/4 full.
  • Step 6: Seal with More Chocolate - Pour remaining melted chocolate over the peanut butter layer and spread evenly.
  • Step 7: Final Chill - Return to the freezer for another 10-15 minutes until firm. Pop out of silicone cups when set.
