Almond Butter Awesome Cups

ALMOND BUTTER CUPS

Reese Peanut Butter Cups are overrated, try these little morsels of awesomeness!! You can RX these cups by coating the bottom of the muffin cups with chocolate as well to completely surround the nut butter filling (Thanks Carm for that little tidbit!). These taste best when taken right from the fridge.

Ingredients
For the Filling:
3/4 Cups Ground Almonds
1/4 Cup Gluten-free Oats, ground
2 Tbsp Almond Butter
1-1/2 Tbsp Coconut Oil
1.5 Tbsp Maple Syrup
1/2 Tsp Pure Vanilla
Pinch Sea Salt (I use Maldon Sea Salt)

For the Topping:
3 Tbsp Coconut Oil
3 Tbsp Maple Syrup
2 Tbsp Cocoa Powder
Pinch Sea Salt

Method
Use paper or silicone muffin cups to make these. I use the smaller sized muffin cups to make 2 bite awesome cups.

1. In a bowl, combine all the filling ingredients thoroughly, it should resemble the consistency of cookie dough.
2. Once filling is mixed, place a tablespoon of the filling into each muffin cup. Set aside.
3. For the topping, melt together the coconut oil, maple syrup and cocoa powder until completely combined and smooth. Spoon chocolate over each cup.
4. Finish off the awesomeness with sprinkling a pinch of sea salt over the middle of each cup and pop in the fridge to harden before scoffing them down!
