Ingredients
- 1/2 cup cacao (paste finely chopped)
- 1/4 cup coconut oil
- 1 teaspoon vanilla powder
- 1/4 teaspoon ceylon cinnamon (paste finely chopped)
- 3 drops almond extract (paste finely chopped)
- 1/2 cup almond butter (paste finely chopped)
- 1/4 cup coconut oil
- 1/4 teaspoon ceylon cinnamon (paste finely chopped)
- 1/4 cup coconut oil
- 1/2 cup coconut butter (paste finely chopped)
- raw almonds (paste finely chopped)
- toasted shredded coconut
Instructions
- Line a muffin pan with large parchment paper cups or better yet, silicone cups.
- Melt ¾ cup coconut oil using your preferred method.
- In a small mixing bowl (preferably one that’s equipped with a spout) melt the cacao paste in the microwave in 20-30 second intervals and stir well for an equal amount of time between each melting session, until there are no lumps left.
- Stir in ¼ cup of the melted coconut oil, as well as the cinnamon, vanilla powder and almond extract.
- Mix delicately until completely combined.
- Divide the melted chocolate equally between the 12 muffin cups and place in the fridge to set, for about 5 minutes.
- Meanwhile, in another mixing bowl, add the almond butter (or any other all natural nut butter that you like), ground cinnamon and ¼ cup of the melted coconut oil.
- Stir to combine, then pour that heavenly mixture over the set chocolate.
- Send the cups back to the fridge until that new layer has set, about 5 to 10 minutes again.
- While the cups are busy firmin' up, add ½ cup of creamy coconut butter to the bowl that you melted your coconut oil in (there should be ¼ cup of oil left in it) and stir until well incorporated.
- Delicately spoon that mixture over the almond butter layer, then garnish each cup with a whole almond or a pinch of toasted coconut flakes.
- Send back to the refrigerator to finish setting, at least an hour.
- These will keep for several weeks if stored in the refrigerator in an airtight container.
