Almond Butter Cups (Healthy)


 These are a fun healthy snack. They can be enjoyed all day long. They are loaded with protein and low sugar. They taste great too.  A great little pick me up for your day. Have a great weekend. Spring is coming up quick. Love it.


Ingredients

Bottom layer

1/3 Cup almond butter (no sugar added) (Or nut butter of your choosing)
3 Tablespoon coconut oil
2 Tablespoons honey
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
3 Tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder

Top layer

1 Cup almond butter (no sugar added)
1/3 Tablespoon coconut oil
2 Tablespoons honey
1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Makes about 9 regular or 16 mini cups

1. In a small bowl mix together the first 3 ingredients with a spoon. If needed put in microwave for 15 seconds to soften. It should be a nice smooth consistency.

2. Then stir in the vanilla and cocoa powder until all combined and smooth.

3. Put a spoonful into each cup greased muffin pan, mini or regular size. You can also use muffin cups. (I have a picture of making them with cups and without)  It should just be enough to cover the bottom.

4. Mix together the first 3 ingredients for the top layer. If needed put in microwave for 15 seconds to soften and get a smooth consistency. Then stir in the vanilla until smooth.

5. Pour the top layer by spoonful on top of the bottom layer. Smooth with spoon to completely cover the bottom layer.

6. Place muffin pan in the freezer for. Should harden in 30 min. Take out of muffin pan and store in air tight container in freezer or fridge for easy access for a healthy snack. Enjoy!!
