Description

These Chocolate Raspberry Peanut Butter Cups are a delicious twist on the classic treat, featuring layers of rich chocolate, creamy peanut butter, and a fruity raspberry surprise.


Ingredients

Units Scale
  • 1 cup dark chocolate chips
  • 1/2 cup creamy peanut butter
  • 2 tbsp coconut oil
  • 1/4 cup raspberry jam
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • Pinch of salt

Instructions

  1. Line a mini muffin tin with paper liners.
  2. In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the chocolate chips with 1 tablespoon of coconut oil in 30-second intervals, stirring in between until smooth.
  3. Spoon about 1 teaspoon of melted chocolate into the bottom of each liner and spread to coat the bottom. Freeze for 10 minutes.
  4. In another bowl, mix the peanut butter, vanilla extract, remaining coconut oil, and salt until smooth.
  5. Remove the tin from the freezer and add about 1 teaspoon of the peanut butter mixture on top of the chocolate layer. Flatten gently with the back of a spoon. Add 1/2 teaspoon of raspberry jam on top of the peanut butter layer.
  6. Top each cup with another teaspoon of melted chocolate to cover the filling completely. Tap the tin gently to even the surface.
  7. Freeze or refrigerate the cups for at least 20 minutes, or until set.
  8. Store in the refrigerator until ready to eat.

Notes

  • You can use almond butter instead of peanut butter for a variation.
  • Ensure the jam is thick to avoid too much spreading or leaking.
  • Use silicone mini muffin molds for easier removal.
