Halloween is right aroung the corner and I am an absolute sucker for Reeses Peanut Butter Cups. With this homemade peanut butter cup recipe, I’ve created a copycat version that will satisfy your sweet tooth without the sugar coma. What is even better is that these peanut butter cups only take about 10 minutes to make and each peanut butter cup is less than 50 calories a piece!

Instructions
Step 1
Start by melting the 3 tbsp coconut oil (I put it in the microwave for 20 seconds). Add the 3 tbsp cocoa powder and mix. Add 1 1/2 tablespoon monk fruit sweetener and salt to taste and mix.
Step 2
Pour a bit of chocolate into each of the mold spaces (about 1 tsp) and put in the freezer for about 5 minutes or until the chocolate solidifies.
Step 3
Remove the mold from the freezer. Add 1/4 tsp of peanut butter into each mold. Top with the remaining chocolate and put in the freezer for about 5 minutes. Take out the chocolate pieces from the mold and enjoy!
Full disclosure, I write these blogs in my spare time. I do not have an editor and am the only one who reviews the content. As a result, it is likely I’ll have the occasional typo or grammar mistake. If you find anything, feel free to let me know.
Lastly, I’ll admit food photography is not my forte. If you make the recipe and have a better picture, please share and I will happily post it and give you photo cred!
