Recipe type: candy
Serves: 1 dozen
Ingredients
  • 1 cup cacao butter
  • ½ c. cocoa powder
  • ½ c. + 2 T. maple syrup
  • pinch of sea salt
  • 2 tsp. vanilla
  • ¾ c. sunbutter
Instructions
  1. Line a muffin pan with cupcake liners.
  2. Put your cacao butter in a double boiler on your stove and heat it slowly over medium heat until just melted. Immediately remove from heat.
  3. Add the remaining ingredients EXCEPT the sunbutter to the cacao butter and whisk until smooth and shiny.
  4. Pour 1 T. of chocolate into each liner. Smooth out with your finger, trying to smooth it up the sides a bit. Set in the freezer for about ten minutes.
  5. Remove from the freezer and scoop 1 T. of sunbutter into the center of each cupcake liner. Put back in the freezer for about ten minutes.
  6. Re-warm your remaining chocolate on the stove while you wait for the sunbutter to harden.
  7. Remove the pan from the freezer and scoop chocolate over the sunbutter, working one cup at a time and smoothing the tops as needed.
  8. Put the whole pan back in the freezer for about ten more minutes.
  9. Remove the pan from the freezer and pop out the cups. At this point you can trim the paper down to the top of the candy if you'd like a nicer presentation.
  10. Enjoy some delicious, and really fairly healthy for you homemade sunbutter cups!
Notes
These aren't fructose-free, but they are fructose friendly. If you can't tolerate maple syrup, try a different sweetener that you can tolerate instead.
