Healthy Peanut Butter Cups

Sweets

24 Apr










I originally discovered this recipe while on my “no processed sugar, no white flour, no potatoes” challenge. I was desperate for a tasty treat and the challenge forced me to be creative when it came to treats. Even though it was extremely hard, I’m glad I did it because my mind has been opened to healthier treats! When I was going through the challenge I could see some changes in my body, but I didn’t think that it had an effect on my mood or the way I felt. When I could finally eat sugar again I noticed a huge difference! Eating sugar and white flour make me feel horrible. I wish it wasn’t true, but it is. Of course I still eat those things occasionally because who can pass up that favorite chocolate cake? It is true that your body really is effected by what you eat. When I eat clean treats like these peanut butter cups, I really don’t feel bad after eating them. Win-win!





My sister who doesn’t really love “healthy food” asked me for these the other night. That’s saying a lot!





These cups have a strong chocolate, honey and peanut butter flavor so they are just what I need to satisfy my sweet tooth. They are sweetened with honey so they are also guilt free! They have a fudge-like texture. How can you say no to fudge?

Sweetened with honey, these cups will satisfy your peanut butter and chocolate cravings guilt-free!

Printable recipe

Ingredients
1/2 cup coconut oil
1/2 cup high quality cocoa powder
1/2 cup natural peanut butter
1/4 cup honey
1/2 teaspoon vanilla
Directions
1. Melt coconut oil, then blend all ingredients in a food processor or blender. 
2. Pour evenly into 12 paper-lined muffin cups, then shake the muffin pan a bit so the batter is evenly distributed in each cup. Put in the refrigerator for about 30 minutes. 
3. When firm, remove from muffin cups and store in a sealed container in the fridge. Don’t leave them at room temperature too long or they will get melty. 
4. Enjoy!
Note: This recipe was adapted from practicalpaleo.blogspot.com’s Primal Fudge recipe

    Do you ever publish low fat recipes? I have lost over 200 lbs and still have more to go. I think your blog is very interesting!

      That's amazing Dianne, keep up the great work! I have been focusing more on finding deals and less on posting recipes, but I think I'll post more in the summer. I get off work in the winter and it's practically dark already so it's hard to photograph my recipes! I do love posting healthy recipes though so stay tuned because I do like to focus on that when I post recipes 🙂

    Could I replace the honey with maple syrup? Or would the texture be off, since it's usually thinner than honey? Thanks!

      Hi Melanie – I have never tried to replace the honey with maple syrup so I'm not sure. I would think the texture would be off because you're right, the maple syrup is much thinner so it probably wouldn't be thick enough. You could always try to do it then add more peanut butter to compensate. Let me know if you try it!
