Ingredients

  • 42 grams Baking Chocolate (unsweetened) (6 squares)
  • 4 teaspoons coconut oil
  • 2 tablespoons peanut butter (natural, unsweetened)
  • 4 tablespoons Swerve sweetener, powdered

Instructions

  1. Mix 1 tablespoon of Swerve powdered sweetener with 2 tablespoons of peanut butter in a small bowl and then place in the refrigerator.

  2. In a small sauce pan, melt the chocolate squares, coconut oil and remaining Swerve sweeteenr (3 tablespoons). As soon as the chcoolate is almost melted take off the stove and mix until everything is melted. You don't want to burn the chocolate.

  3. Lay out 8 silicone muffin cups or cupcake papers and pour just enough chocolate to cover the bottom of the cups. Place the cups in the freezer for about 5 minutes until they have solidified.

  4. Take out the peanut butter and divide it into 8 balls. Quickly and lightly roll them and place 1 on each chocolate cup. Use your finger to gently push flatten the balls as much as you can.

  5. Take the rest of the chocolate and pour over the tops. If the chocolate has hardened, place back on stove until liquid.

  6. Place back into the freezer for 1 hour or until hardened. Store in the refrigerator or freezer.

  7. NOTE: If you don't like the taste of coconut oil you an use ghee instead. Regular butter will separate but ghee will not.
