Homemade Peanut Butter Cups

Prep Time10 minutes
Freeze Time12 hours
Total Time12 hours 10 minutes
Servings: 12 cups

Equipment

  • 1 12-cup muffin tin

Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup peanut butter, well-stirred
  • 1/2 cup hazelnut butter, well-stirred (any combo of 2 nut butters works great)
  • 1/4 cup + 1 Tbsp melted coconut oil
  • 2 Tbsp maple syrup, agave, or honey
  • 2 scoops collagen powder (I like Vital Proteins)
  • 1/2 cup Enjoy Life chocolate chips, melted (1/2 cup will be enough for a layer on top. Use 3/4 cup is you would like the chocolate to coat the entire nut butter cup.)

Instructions

  • Combine the peanut butter, hazelnut butter, 1/4 cup of melted coconut oil, maple syrup, and collagen powder in a medium-size bowl and mix well.
  • In a small, microwave-safe bowl, combine the chocolate chips and the remaining tablespoon of coconut oil and microwave for 20 second. Remove the bowl form the microwave, stir, and heat for another 20 or so seconds. (The exact heating time will vary depending on the microwave.)
  • Line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper muffin liners and divide the nut butter mixture evenly among them. Each muffin liner should be about 1/3 full.
  • Drizzle the melted chocolate over each nut butter cup.
  • Freeze overnight or until the nut butter cups are firm. Enjoy!
