line a mini muffin tin with muffin liners [i use the ones with ridges]! – makes 18-24 nut butter cups.
melt 1/2 cup of the chocolate chips with 1 tbsp sun butter [base chocolate layer].
place a small drop of melted chocolate + sun butter into each cup of mini muffin pan.
place the pan in the refrigerator to harden [or freezer to go quicker]. allow the chocolatle to set for ~20 minutes in the refrigerator.
in a separate bowl, combine the sun butter, maple syrup, coconut flour, salt, + vanilla extract.
once mixed evenly and the base chocolate layer is set, take ~1tsp of the sunbutter filling & roll it in your hands — into a tiny ball, then flatten it — & put one round in each individual cup of the muffin tin.
melt the remaining 1/2 cup chocolate chips + 1 tbsp sun butter until smooth, & top each nut butter cup off until the chocolate covers the top AND sides of the sunbutter filling.
place back in the refrigerator until chocolate has set [~20min].
store in the refrigerator to keep fresh longer + enjoy!
