Do I even need to say a single word? Do we not all love and die for chocolate peanut butter cups? I am happy to have found a way to still consume this fabulous candies, only converted to a far superior version that is more flavorful and actually healthy.
Heavenly Chocolate Peanut Butter Cups 
2 cups organic dark chocolate (or milk chocolate if you prefer, and preferably non-gmo, soy free)
2 tablespoons coconut oil
1/2 cup cultured butter
1/2 cup organic natural peanut butter – I use a brand with palm oil (creamy
or crunchy)
1 tablespoon honey
1. Melt chocolate and oil in a small mug in the toaster oven on low heat for 4 minutes, additionally in another mug add the butter, peanut butter and honey. Or in 2 small saucepans over low heat on the stove top.
2. Line a mini muffin tin with paper cup liners. Once the chocolate is melted add a small spoonful and tilt the cup to coat it with the chocolate, but don’t let it get to the top of the paper cup. Repeat with all the liners then place in the freezer for 5 minutes.
3. Remove from freezer, and to each cup add a dollop of the peanut mixture. Place back in the freezer for another 5 minutes.
4. Remove from freezer and top each cup with remaining chocolate. Freeze again for 5 minutes. Then place in a container in the refrigerator. Let the chocolates sit out for a few minutes before eating. These chocolates will need to remain refrigerated.
Depending on the size of your mini muffin pan, this recipe should make around 32 cups.

I’ve made a similar version before. But now Justin’s makes Dark Chocolate pbutter cups which are AMAZING. I eat those when I don’t have time to make these.
Hey lydia! Thanks for this recipe. Me and my 5 year old make these for my husband for all the holidays and tomorrow is his birthday, so guess what we are doing?! Yummy! We also made your chocolate chip banana muffins but with pumpkin yesterday and they were delicious! Thanks!
