Healthy Peanut Butter Cups
Recipe by Marisa Arizpe
Ingredients
- ½ cup unsweetened almond butter
- ¼ cup coconut oil
- 2 CULTO Chocolate bars 60% Cacao of 80g
- 2 tablespoons of sweetener of your choice
- Pinch of fleur de sel or coarse salt
- Mini cupcake mold
Process
- Put in a water bath to heat the chocolate and move it slowly
- While it is heating, grease the mini cupcake mold with the coconut oil
- Once the chocolate is melted, check the texture and add oil to taste until you get a homogeneous mixture
- Pour a chocolate base into the mold and leave it in your freezer for about 10 minutes. Leave that leftover chocolate base in a water bath because you will use it again.
- While the chocolate base is hardening, take the peanut butter and mix the sweetener to taste. It should be sweet to make a nice contrast with the chocolate.
- Take the bases out of the freezer and add the almond paste. Place in your freezer for 10 min.
- Take the mold back from the freezer and pour the final part of the chocolate until the mold is full. Add a nice topping that contrasts colors, it could be the fleur de sel or a little dried lavender.
- Put it back in the freezer for 20 minutes and you're done!
It's a good idea to transfer them to a resealable bag and keep them in the freezer for when you have a craving. Remember the quality of the chocolate you use is the basis for the success of the recipe so be sure to do it with Culto Cacao.
