Jump to RecipeThese easy to make no bake Dark Chocolate Almond Butter Cups use only 4 ingredients, and are pure snacking perfection! They’re made without refined sugars and are absolutely delicious! This healthier dark chocolate dessert is better than the store bought peanut butter cups, hands down!

Easy dark chocolate almond butter cups are a delicious no bake dessert or snack that everyone loves! Dark Chocolate Almond Butter Cups Recipe These tasty dark chocolate almond butter cups are paleo-friendly and gluten-free but you’d never know it! My family loves them more than the commercially available Reese’s peanut butter cups! They’re super easy to make and require just a few ingredients that you are likely to have on hand already! I love using Justin’s brand peanut butter or almond butter when I make these, but use your choice of nut butters to really enjoy these! How To Make Dark Chocolate Almond Butter Cups To start your almond butter ( or your favorite nut butter ) cups, grab a small to medium size mixing bowl. Combine the smooth or chunky no-stir almond butter with honey until smooth. Note that you can also heat the almond butter and honey mixture in a short 30 second microwave heating to make the mixture pourable. Spoon into the mini muffin pan, with liners or not, filling each muffin cup about half way. Depending on how much I fill my muffin liners, I have made anywhere between 20 - 24 dark chocolate almond butter cups. Melt the chocolate chips or broken chocolate bar ( I recommend 65%+ cacao content ) in a microwave safe bowl. Heat the dark chocolate chips in thirty second intervals, stirring in between heating until all of the dark chocolate is melted and smooth. Stir in the tablespoon of cacao powder, or use cocoa powder, if desired. Spoon on top of the almond butter mixture in the mini muffin pan cups until all of the chocolate topping is used. Top with a finishing touch of freshly ground sea salt, which is also optional but highly recommended! Place mini muffin pan tray into the freezer for about at least 30 minutes and serve after they have chilled. The almond butter cups will pop right out of the tray when you slide a butter knife down one side and lift them out, if you aren’t using liners.

Storage of Dark Chocolate Almond Butter Cups These easy no bake dessert or snack cups are frozen to set them up, and are best served straight from the freezer. Store in an air tight container in the refrigerator or freezer for up to one week.
