Peanut butter cups

Oh. My. Goodness. I've just made these and they are awesome! Raw, and with only 4 ingredients, they are super simple to make and won't last long...

I got the recipe from rawified.blogspot.com.au - check it out for some amazing raw food recipes.









Ingredients:

1/2 cup coconut oil or cacao butter
1/4 cup raw cacao powder
1/4 cup raw nut butter 
1 tbsp raw honey or agave

Directions:


Put the coconut oil in a bowl, and place that bowl inside another bowl filled with warm water.  This will allow the coconut oil to heat up just enough to melt, without killing the enzymes.  Add the cacao powder and honey, and mix well.  Place 12 mini muffin tin liners in a baking pan, and put about 1/2 tbsp of chocolate in the bottom of each.  Place in the freezer to set for about 10 minutes, or until hard.


Next you're going to put about 1/2 tbsp of nut butter in the bottom of each cup - you can also use peanut or cashew butter.  Be careful not to let the nut butter touch the sides of the cup, or the finished product will look messy.

Divide the rest of the chocolate equally between the tops of the cups, covering the nut butter completely.  Place back in the freezer for another 10 minutes, or until hard.

Store in the fridge.
