Vegan 3 Ingredient Peanut Butter Cups

Prep Time 1 hour
Total Time 1 hour
Servings 10 peanut butter cups

Ingredients
  

  • 2 cups vegan chocolate chips - I used PASCHA 100% unsweetened chocolate chips
  • 1/4 cup oil-free unsweetened peanut butter
  • 8 medjool dates
  • Optional: stevia to sweeten the melted chocolate, if you'd like! You probably only need 1-2 tbsp if you want it sweetened, just mix it in once the chocolate is melted.

Instructions
 

  • Line a cupcake tin with 10 paper liners.
  • Melt 3/4 c of the chocolate chips in the microwave until totally smooth.
  • Put about 1 tbsp of the melted chocolate into the bottom of each cup, and freeze for 15 minutes to set.
  • To make the filling, blend the peanut butter and dates. Scrape down the sides a couple times until the dates seem to be chopped and incorporated into the peanut butter. Chill the bowl in the refrigerator for 15 minutes.
  • Melt the remaining 1 1/4 c chocolate chips.
  • Take out the filling and the pan with the already set chocolate, and measure out 1 tsp of the peanut butter filling into each cup, pressing slightly to spread toward the edges.
  • Use the melted chocolate to cover the filling of each cup completely - you'll probably need a little over 1 tbsp for each cup. If there's extra, just put some more on each one until you're out of chocolate.
  • Freeze the peanut butter cups for 30 minutes to set.
  • Store leftovers in the fridge or freezer.
