The Ultimate Keto Treat: Almond Butter Cups
These Keto Almond Butter Cups deliver a perfect balance of rich chocolate and creamy almond butter. They are sweetened with keto-friendly ingredients, making them a guilt-free indulgence that is both satisfying and delicious.
Ingredients
- 1 cup sugar-free dark chocolate chips
- 1/2 cup almond butter
- 2 tablespoons coconut oil
- 1 tablespoon powdered erythritol or your preferred keto sweetener
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
- Pinch of salt
Instructions
- Melt the Chocolate: In a microwave-safe bowl, combine the sugar-free dark chocolate chips and coconut oil. Heat in 30-second intervals, stirring until smooth.
- Prepare the Molds: Line a muffin tin with cupcake liners. Pour a small amount of melted chocolate into each liner, just enough to cover the bottom.
- Add Almond Butter: In a separate bowl, mix the almond butter, powdered erythritol, vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt until well combined. Spoon a dollop of the almond butter mixture into each chocolate-lined cup.
- Top with Chocolate: Pour the remaining melted chocolate over the almond butter layer, ensuring it’s completely covered. Tap the muffin tin gently to remove air bubbles.
- Chill: Place the muffin tin in the refrigerator for about 30 minutes, or until the chocolate has hardened.
- Serve: Once set, remove the Almond Butter Cups from the liners and enjoy your keto-friendly treat!
