Step 1 Combine the peanut butter, maple syrup and liquid coconut oil (melt if needed) in a medium size bowl and stir until well combined.

Put them into the freezer for at least 15 minutes or until hardened.

For the topping
Step 2 Combine the raw cacao, maple syrup and liquid coconut oil (melt if needed) in a medium size bowl and stir until well combined.

Drop a spoonful at a time on top of the frozen/hardened peanut butter in the silicone muffin cups.
Put them into the freezer for at least 15 minutes or until hardened.

Step 3 Keep in the freezer until served because they will melt and lose their shape at room temperature if the coconut oil begins to melt.
