Ingredients

• 1 cup smooth nut butter or seed butter
• 3 tablespoons molasses
• 2 cups of my coconut oil chocolate chunks OR 2 cups of chocolate chips
• 2 tablespoon coconut oil

Instructions

1. Line a 12 cup muffin tin with paper cups.
2. Combine the nut butter and molasses in a bowl and stir until combined.
3. In a glass bowl, combine the chocolate with the coconut oil.
4. Place the glass bowl over a pot filled halfway with water. Make sure the bowl sits above and not in the water.
5. Over low heat, gently melt the chocolate with the coconut oil. Stir frequently. Remove from heat when melted.
6. Pour just enough of the coconut oil chocolate mixture into each cup so that the bottom is coated.
7. Place the muffin tin in your freezer for 5 minutes which allows the chocolate to solidify.
8. Remove from the freezer and place a spoon full of the nut butter mixture in each. Press the nut butter mixture a little so that it is even across the chocolate mixture.
9. Your melted coconut oil chocolate mixture should still be melted but if not, place it back over low heat until melted again. Once melted, pour a light coating over the nut butter layer. Tilt the pan to help spread it consistently across the top of each nut butter cup. Continue this process until all the chocolate is used.
10. Place the coconut oil chocolate nut butter cups in the freezer for 10 minutes.
11. Once solidified, these should be stored in an airtight container in the fridge.

A couple of important notes about coconut oil:

• Never microwave coconut oil to melt it! Microwaves destroy all of the beneficial properties. Instead, place the desired amount of coconut oil in a glass jar or measuring cup. Place the glass in a bowl of hot water. It will melt fairly quickly.
• Coconut oil can be kept in the refrigerator during warmer months if you prefer it in a solid state.
