Easy Almond Butter Chocolate Cups recipe made with only 3 ingredients. Can be made vegan, this makes a quick snack to satisfy your sweet tooth.
I’ve been too busy relaxing and exploring Hawaii for my honeymoon that I have neglected to post on this blog. Forgive me just this once, will you 😉. How about if I bribe you with these Almond Butter Chocolate Cups? Will that work?
It is so hot in Hawaii, I would make these right about now if I had all of the right ingredients and the right equipment. I promise, if I end up in an Airbnb with a muffin pan, I will buy the 3 ingredients needed to make these Almond Butter Chocolate Cups and make them as soon as I get back. They are so good, and so easy to make!
All you need is:
- chocolate chips
- coconut oil
- almond butter (or any nut butter you like!)
And of course a muffin pan.
I made these more times than I can count in Toronto, but wanted to save the recipe for when it got SUPER hot, and everyone is looking for no bake desserts. This is the one for you.
And it is so versatile too! You can sub in any chocolate you want, that if you choose a dairy free chocolate you can make these vegan. Also, you can choose any nut butter you like, depending on your preferences and allergies. The possibilities are endless!
I actually have some of these waiting for me in the freezer in Toronto, which I am so excited to eat upon my return.
But since this honeymooning and relaxing is basically my full time job right now, I may not post for a while. Or until I return to Toronto in a couple of weeks. But if you are missing me at all (hah!), follow along with my Hawaii adventures on my Instagram. I will try to post more while away, but I am not promising anything. But you can always make these Almond Butter Chocolate Cups a couple of times while you wait!

Almond Butter Chocolate Cups
Ingredients
- 1 cup chocolate chips

I would eat so many of those.
Amazing how easy it is to make.

I do eat a lot of it when I make it at home. So that’s why I usually make the batch small (like this recipe) to avoid too much temptation!
Jeff the Chef
If you’re going to be blogging while on your honeymoon, I’m glad it’s about something sweet!

Oh goodness, I love every bit of this recipe. Chocolate cups can be tricky to get soft but these look delicious.
atasteofmadness
True. But keeping them at room temperature would help!
Marisa Franca
I tearing up just looking at the chocolate cups. I absolutely love Reeses cups and to think I can make something similar on my own. I don’t know whether I should thank you or not. I try not to eat sweets and something like this around the house would be such a temptation. BTW — enjoy your honeymoon.
atasteofmadness
Me too!! Thanks Marisa 🙂
