Introduction

Quick and easy low-carb peanut butter chocolate cups. Quick and easy low-carb peanut butter chocolate cups.
Number of Servings: 18

Ingredients

    1 stick butter (the recipe called for unsalted, but I used salted)
    1 oz Baker's Unsweetened Chocolate (4 pieces of the easy break bar)
    2 tbsp Peanut Butter (you can adjust to taste)
    4 tbsp Splenda (adjust to taste)
    2 tbsp Heavy Whipping Cream

    18-20 mini-cupcake liners

Tips

You can add nuts to this (almonds, walnuts, etc), just make sure they're on the bottom of the cupcake liners.


Directions

1. Melt butter and chocolate in the microwave. I placed the butter on the bottom of the bowl with the chocolate on top, so it wouldn't burn.

2. Melt for about a minute in the microwave, then mix until completely melted. If it's not completely melted, place back in the microwave and heat in 10 second intervals. Add Splenda and stir.

3. Stir in cream and peanut butter and taste. You could adjust to taste by adding more sugar, peanut butter, etc..

4. Line muffin tins with cupcake papers, or use the stand-alone ones (I did).

5. Divide chocolate mixture between the tins.

6. Freeze until firm (doesn’t take that long, maybe 30 minutes to an hour). I kept them in the freezer for 25 minutes, then placed in the fridge.
