With summer fast approaching, I'm on a mission for snacks that keep me cool, and are easy on my waistline, and my wallet. Tall order, I know. But these chocolate strawberry cups hit it out of the park. They taste sort of like a healthy chocolate covered peanut butter and jelly!
The best part is that you can try experimenting with different filling, making these a super versatile dessert you can make all summer long.
Ingredients for the chocolate coating:
- 2 Tbsp. cocoa powder
- 1.5 Tbsp. melted coconut oil
- 1.5 Tbsp. raw creamy peanut butter
- 1 Tbsp. agave
Ingredients for the filling:
- 3 mashed strawberries
- 1 Tbsp. melted coconut oil
Directions
Mix first 4 ingredients together. Place tsp. of chocolate mixture in the bottom of a muffin cup and freeze 15 minutes.
While waiting, mix strawberries and coconut oil.
Layer strawberry filling on top of frozen chocolate mixture. Freeze 15 minutes.
Add the rest of the chocolate to the top. Freeze for 15 minutes.
Do away with processed peanut butter cups forever.
