We all need something sweet once in a while. Unless, of course, you are one of those people who doesn’t like sweets (you are clearly not a friend of mine…I kid, I kid). When I look for a sweet treat, I am always looking for things that are easy to make and don’t require a million ingredients and bowls.
Enter these 4 ingredients strawberry almond butter cups. They are dairy-free, paleo-friendly, vegan, require only one bowl. They are guaranteed to satisfy any sweet tooth.
Note from the picture below, the chocolate to almond butter ratio is pretty much 5:1. When I make these again (like after I hit publish on this post!), I’m going to use a little less chocolate and a little more almond butter. The beauty of this recipe is that you can totally customize to your taste, and add any filling you like. This time I used freeze dried strawberries, but next time I will use my homemade strawberry chia jam, for a chocolate AB&J cup. Yummy, right?
Ingredients
- 2 tbsp coconut oil
- 1 package Enjoy Life Foods dairy-free chocolate chips
- 4 tbsp almond butter (I like Georgia Grinders or nut butter of choice)
- small handful of freeze dried strawberries (you can even add strawberry jam or other fruit)
- sea salt to sprinkle on top
Instructions
- Line a muffin pan with 8 liner cups.
- Melt the half of the package of chocolate chips in the microwave, with 1 tb of coconut oil. Microwave in 30 second increments and stir until nice and smooth.
- Spoon about 1 tb of the chocolate mixture into the bottom of the liner cups.
- Place in the freezer for 20 minutes.
- Remove from the freezer.
- Spoon about 1/2-1 teaspoon almond butter into each cup, followed by the freeze dried strawberries.
- Melt the remaining 1/2 package of the chocolate chips with remaining 1 tb coconut oil in the microwave, using the same process as before.
- Once nice and smooth, pour mixture on top to cover the almond butter and strawberries completely.
- Freeze for at least 30 minutes. Enjoy!
