Ingredients
  

  • 2 cups chocolate
  • 6 dates with the pit removed
  • 3 tsp almond butter
  • 6 almonds
  • 1 tsp flakey sea salt optional
  • 6 paper muffin cups

Instructions
 

  •  Line your standard muffin tin with 6 paper cupcake liners.
  • Combine your chocolate in a microwave safe bowl. Microwave in 30 second intervals stirring in between each one until the chocolate has melted. You can add one teaspoon of coconut oil towards the end, but this is optional.
  • Pour 1 tablespoon of the melted chocolate in 6 of the paper cups.
  • Add 1 date (with the pit removed) in the middle of each cup. Next, add one almond in the middle of the date. Drizzle 1/2 teaspoon of almond butter on top of the date.
  • Lastly, drizzle 1 tablespoon of chocolate on top of the date or until it's completely covered with chocolate. Sprinkle with flakey sea salt (optional).
  • Pop the muffin tin in the refrigerator until the chocolate has completely hardened. Remove the chocolate cups from the liners and enjoy!

Notes

  • I recommend storing these cups in the refrigerator. If left out for too long, they will melt. 
  • Substitute the almond butter for peanut butter and the almond for peanuts.
  • I highly encourage you to use the paper cups when making these. Otherwise the chocolate will stick to the muffin tins.
