Homemade Organic Peanut Butter Cups: A Simple and Delicious Treat
Peanut butter cups are a classic treat that can be enjoyed by people of all ages. They're also relatively easy to make at home, with just a few simple ingredients. In this blog post, we'll show you how to make your own organic peanut butter cups using simple ingredients that you may already have in your pantry.
Ingredients:
- 1 cup organic peanut butter
- 1/2 cup organic honey
- 1/4 cup organic cacao powder
- 1/4 cup organic coconut oil
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 12 silicone baking cups
Instructions:
- In a medium bowl, combine the peanut butter, honey, cacao powder, coconut oil, vanilla extract, and salt. Stir until well combined.
- Line a baking sheet with the silicone baking cups.
- Spoon the peanut butter mixture into the baking cups, filling each cup about 3/4 full.
- Place the baking sheet in the freezer and freeze for at least 2 hours, or until the peanut butter cups are firm.
- Once the peanut butter cups are frozen, remove them from the freezer and let them sit at room temperature for a few minutes before serving.
Tips:
- If you don't have any silicone baking cups, you can also use paper cupcake liners. Just be sure to grease the liners with a little coconut oil before spooning in the peanut butter mixture.
- You can also add other ingredients to your peanut butter cups, such as chopped nuts, dried fruit, or chocolate chips.
- If you want to make a larger batch of peanut butter cups, you can double or triple the recipe.
- Peanut butter cups are a great make-ahead snack. You can store them in the freezer for up to 2 months.
