- Number of Servings: 24
Ingredients
˝ cup cooked chickpeas, rinsed and drained well˝ cup peanut butter (not natural)3 tbsp maple syrup or honey (if not vegan)1˝ cups dairy-free chocolate chips 1 tsp. coconut oil
Melt chocolate chips and coconut oil either on the stovetop or in the microwave until pourable.
Pour ˝ teaspoon of melted chocolate into each paper-lined mini muffin cup and spread it across the bottom and up the sides. Place in freezer to set.
Pulse chickpeas in food processor until crumbly, but not pureed.
Add the peanut butter and maple syrup and pulse until the mixture "seizes up", or suddenly thickens.
Measure out 1 teaspoon of filling and roll into a ball. Set aside on a piece of parchment paper or a plate. Repeat with the remaining filling - there should be enough for at least 24 balls.
Remove muffin cups from the freezer. Place one ball of filling into each cup and pat down into a flat circle, leaving a small amount of space between the edge of the filling and the muffin cup.
Pour 1 teaspoon of melted chocolate mixture over the top of the filling and jiggle slightly to let the chocolate settle down over the filling.
Set aside until completely set.
