How to Make It
Step 1
Melt the chocolate chips in a microwave-safe dish until melted. Mix using a spatula and allow the chocolate to finish melting as you mix. Then add 1/8 tsp. vanilla extract and any sweetener of your choice (a few drops of stevia extract works best) and mix.
Step 2
Line the muffin tray with mini muffin liners and carefully add a small amount of the melted chocolate to each muffin hole while spooning the chocolate up the sides about ¾ of the height of the muffin liners. Transfer the pan to the freezer for 10 minutes to allow the chocolate to firm up.
Step 3
Meanwhile, melt the coconut butter by placing the coconut butter jar in a hot water bath. Do not melt the coconut butter in the microwave since It will burn the coconut butter. Once melted, measure out 1/5 tbsp. coconut butter in a small bowl and mix in 1/8 tsp. vanilla extract.
Step 4
Remove the muffin tray from the freezer and add a dollop of coconut butter to each muffin hole. Transfer the muffin tray back to the freezer to allow the coconut butter to set for a couple of minutes.
Step 5
Once the coconut butter is set, take the muffin tray out of the freezer and cover the coconut butter layer with the remaining melted chocolate. Evenly spread out the chocolate over the coconut butter to ensure all the coconut butter is fully covered. Sprinkle unsweetened coconut flakes on top of the chocolate layer.
Step 6
Transfer the muffin tray back to the freezer for about 20 minutes to allow the chocolate to fully set and firm up. Enjoy right away. Leftover chocolate coconut butter cups can be left in the fridge to remain chilled or in the freezer.
