Ingredients

  • 1 Cup Dark chocolate Chocolate chips dairy-free for vegan
  • 2 Tbsp All-Natural Peanut Butter Almond butter for paleo
  • 2 Tbsp Raspberry Jam refined sugar-free

Instructions

  • Gently melt the chocolate chips in a double boiler or in a microwave safe bowl in 15-second increments as to not burn the chocolate. 
  • Place six mini cupcake liners onto a baking sheet.
  • Drop roughly one tablespoon of chocolate into the center of each liner.
  • Then drop roughly one teaspoon of almond butter and one teaspoon of jam into the center of the chocolate.
  • Cover with remaining chocolate and freeze for 1 hour before serving.

Notes

  • If completely frozen, let defrost for 15 minutes at room temperature before serving
  • For a vegan option, use dairy-free dark chocolate chips.
  • For Paleo-friendly use almond butter instead of peanut butter.
  • If melting the chocolate in the microwave, melt it in 15-second increments, to avoid burning the chocolate.
  • I used dark chocolate chips, but you can use milk chocolate if you prefer.
  • For the jelly, use any of your favorite sugar-free jelly flavors.
  •  If the peanut butter cups are completely frozen, let defrost for 15 minutes at room temperature before serving.
  • Sprinkle a bit of sea salt on the top of each peanut butter jelly cups, it balances out the sweetness perfectly, especially if your peanut butter is unsalted.
