Ingredients

3/4 cup melted coconut oil
1/2 cup cocoa powder (more or less to taste)
2-4 tablespoons natural sweetener (I like agave or maple syrup – more or less to taste)
pinch of salt
roughly 3/4 cup of almond butter (or any nut butter)

Steps

1
Whisk the coconut oil, cocoa powder, sweetener, and a pinch of salt.
2
Fill a regular size muffin tin with paper liners. Pour a small amount of the cocoa mixture (1-2 tablespoons) into the paper cups. Drop a small spoonful of the almond butter (2-3 teaspoons) into the center of each cup. Divide remaining chocolate amongst the cups.

If almond butter is sticking up, just gently press it down so each cup has a smooth top layer. Sprinkle each almond butter cup with a pinch of coarse sea salt. Freeze for one hour or until solid. YUM TOWN.
