Gluten-free, dairy-free and vegan, these peanut butter cups taste just like (if not better than!) the commercial peanut butter cups and I am about to show you how to make them with only three ingredients. Let’s go!
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.
