Keto Nut Butter Cups Recipe
Ketosis Cups Ingredients (Makes about 10-12 cups):
Chocolate Layer:
- half of a cup of unsweetened keto-friendly chocolate chips
- 1 tablespoon coconut oil
Nut Butter Layer:
- half of a cup of creamy almond butter (or your favorite nut butter like peanut butter or cashew butter)
- quarter cup powdered Swerve or other keto-friendly sweeteners
- 1 tablespoon melted coconut oil
- Pinch of salt (optional)
Equipment:
- Silicone muffin mold
- Mixing bowls (2)
- Spoons (2)
- Microwave (optional)
Instructions:
- Craft the Chocolate Base: In a medium bowl, melt the keto-friendly chocolate chips and coconut oil together. You can do this using a double boiler or by placing the bowl in short bursts in the microwave, stirring in between, until smooth and melted. This will be the decadent foundation of your keto nut butter cups!
- Prepare the Nut Butter Filling: In another bowl, combine the nut butter, sweetener, melted coconut oil, and a pinch of salt (if using). Mix everything until well combined and creamy. This is your rich and nutty filling, ready to join the chocolate party!
- Assemble Your Ketosis Cups: Pour a small amount of melted chocolate into each silicone muffin mold cup, just enough to coat the bottom. Swirl the chocolate slightly to ensure an even coating.
- Freeze for 10 Minutes: Place the muffin mold in the freezer for 10 minutes to allow the chocolate layer to harden.
- Add the Nut Butter Layer: Once the chocolate has hardened, remove the mold from the freezer. Using a spoon, add a dollop of the nut butter filling to each cup.
- Top it Off with Chocolate: Carefully pour the remaining melted chocolate over the nut butter filling, creating a complete chocolate coating.
- Freeze for Final Set: Place the muffin mold back in the freezer for at least 30 minutes, or until the chocolate is completely set and firm.
