Ingredients

• 2 ounces Unsweetened baking chocolate
• 2 tablespoons Unsweetened cocoa powder
• 4 tablespoons Erythritol sweetener
• 4 tablespoons Coconut oil
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
• 4 tablespoons Natural peanut butter
• 2 tablespoons Powdered erythritol
• 1 pinch Sea salt

Directions

Step 1

In a small saucepan over low heat, melt the unsweetened baking chocolate and coconut oil together. Stir continuously to prevent burning.

Step 2

Once melted, remove from heat and whisk in the unsweetened cocoa powder and erythritol sweetener until dissolved.

Step 3

Add in the vanilla extract, stirring well to incorporate.

Step 4

In a small bowl, mix the natural peanut butter with powdered erythritol and a pinch of sea salt until smooth.

Step 5

Prepare a mini muffin tin with 12 liners. Spoon a small amount of the chocolate mixture into each liner, just enough to cover the bottom.

Step 6

Place the tin in the freezer for about 5 minutes to slightly solidify the chocolate layer.

Step 7

Remove the tin from the freezer and add a dollop of the peanut butter mixture onto each chocolate base. Gently flatten with the back of a spoon.

Step 8

Cover the peanut butter layer in each cup with the remaining chocolate mixture.

Step 9

Return the tin to the freezer for another 15 minutes, or until the peanut butter cups are completely set.

Step 10

Once set, remove the peanut butter cups from the liners and enjoy your low-carb treat!

Step 11

Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator.
