Chocolate Sunflower Butter Cups
These chocolate sunflower butter cups are a scrumptious, nut-free treat! They are creamy in the middle, covered in rich, dark chocolate, and only 4 ingredients are needed!
Ingredients
- ½ cup creamy sunflower seed butter, unsweetened (salt added is preferable) (127ml)
- ⅓ cup organic powdered sugar (40g)
- ⅛ teaspoon fine sea salt
- 9 ounces dairy-free dark chocolate chips, 70% (about 1½ cups) - I used Hu Baking Dark Chocolate Gems 70%
Instructions
- First, line a mini muffin tin with paper cups.
- Then take a small bowl and add the sunflower seed butter, powdered sugar, and salt. Stir well until all clumps are gone. Set the bowl aside.
- Next, pour the chocolate chips into a non-stick pan and heat over the stove on medium-high. Use a spoon or spatula to constantly stir the chocolate until it is completely melted, about 3 minutes. Remove the pan from the heat.
- Use a measuring teaspoon to scoop out the melted chocolate and coat the bottom of each muffin cup. Then use a ½ teaspoon to scoop out the sunflower seed butter mixture. It will be a bit sticky, so use your hands to place each scoop in the middle of the cups on top of the chocolate. Finally, top each cup with another teaspoon of melted chocolate.
- Loosely cover the tin with foil and chill in the refrigerator for 1 hour. Keep refrigerated until serving.
