INGREDIENTS

• 1 cup 70% dark chocolate chips or chunks

• 4 tablespoons natural peanut butter (or you can use almond butter)
• Pinch of sea salt

DIRECTIONS

1. Line 12 muffin tins with liners.
2. Melt the chocolate chips/chunks over low heat until melted. (You don't want to go any high than low, or your chocolate will burn). Evenly distribute half the melted chocolate into lined muffin cups. Set in freezer for 15 minutes.
3. While in freezer, melt the coconut oil in microwave or over stove top. Once melted, combine with peanut (or almond) butter.
4. Remove cups from freezer and evenly distribute the peanut butter filling into each cup. Put back into freezer for another 5 minutes.
5. Finally, remove from freezer and add the remaining half of chocolate chips onto each cup. Sprinkle with sea salt and place back into freezer for 1-2 hours.
