Vegan ‘Reese’s’ peanut butter cups
So easy to make and they taste just like Reese’s!
Ingredients
For the chocolate:
- 1 cup good quality dar chocolate
- 2 tbsp coconut oil
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
For the peanut butter filling:
- 1/2 cup peanut butter
- 2 tbsp coconut oil
- pinch of salt
Instructions
- Line a muffin tin with cupcake cases. Place the dark chocolate chunks and coconut oil into a microwave safe bowl and microwave for 30 second intervals until melted, stirring each time. Stir in the vanilla extract.
- Pour half of the chocolate mixture into the cupcake cases and place in the freezer for around 5 minutes. Meanwhile, place the peanut butter, salt and coconut oil into a bowl/mug and microwave for around 15-20 seconds and stir well.
- Take the cupcake cases out of the freezer and pour the peanut butter mixture evenly into the cupcake cases. Once again, put them in the freezer for 5 more minutes to set.
- Pour the remaining chocolate mixture on top of the peanut layer and place in the fridge for 10-15 minutes.
