No-Sugar Peanut Butter Cups

How to use Moon Magic's Planet Milk bar to make chocolatey, no-sugar, calorie-conscious peanut butter cups. Warning: you might not want to share.

Ingredients

  • 6–8 Moon Magic Planet Milk chocolate bars
  • 1/3 cup peanut butter (or any nut butter)
  • 2 tbsp no-cal Walden Farms maple syrup (or other no/low-sugar versions)
  • Fresh strawberries (or raspberries)
  • Brown rice crisps cereal (or Rice Krispies)
  • Chopped nuts for garnish

Directions

  1. Break up the bars and gently melt in the microwave for about 40 seconds until soft — stir to fully melt smooth. Keep the temperature low to keep the chocolate in temper.
  2. Line a cupcake tin with liners. Add about 1/4 inch of chocolate to each one. Rush to cool in the freezer.
  3. Meanwhile, mix the nut butter and maple syrup together.
  4. Once the bottoms are somewhat firm, add a heaping tsp of the nut butter mix to each cup.
  5. Add a slice of strawberry or a tsp of raspberry halves.
  6. Add a tsp of rice cereal for a crunchy textural element.
  7. Use the remaining chocolate to fully cover the centres of each.
  8. Top with garnish.
  9. Cool for about 1 hour until fully firm in the refrigerator.
