Organic Chocolate Peanut Butter Cups

There’s no debating the delicious taste of Reese’s peanut butter cups. But do you really want to risk the potential health effects by eating them, or feeding them to your children? If peanut butter cups happen to be one of your favorite treats, there are safer ways eat them without putting your health at risk! Look for organic peanut butter cups at health food stores, or make your own! Here’s how:

Ingredients

12 muffin tin liners
12 ounces of organic dark chocolate
1 cup of organic peanut butter
1/4 cup of raw honey
1/4 teaspoon of organic salt

Directions

Make the muffin cups more shallow by trimming them.
Using a small saucepan, melt the chocolate on low heat while stirring continually. Leave it on for 1-2 minutes and be careful not to overcook.
Using a teaspoon, put chocolate portions into the muffin cups.
Place the whole muffin tin into the fridge to solidify.
In a medium bowl, mix the organic peanut butter, raw honey and salt.
Once the chocolate in the fridge has hardened, heat the peanut butter in a small saucepan over low heat to soften it.
Put a small portion of peanut butter into each of the chocolate-coated cups leaving some room at the top for another layer of chocolate.
Store the cups in the fridge for 10 minutes, then spread and flatten the peanut butter.
Put the cups back in the fridge for 1 hour or until the peanut butter hardens.
When the peanut butter is ready, rewarm the remaining chocolate and add a layer to the top of each candy.
Cool it once again in your fridge until the chocolate hardens.
Enjoy!
