Zero sugar-Chocolate-Coconut-Nut Butter Bites


When I found this recipe I never imagined they would be so DE-licious!! They are heaven sent with their silky truffle like texture... YUMM-O! 

1/2 cup coconut oil
1/2 cup almond butter or any nut butter
1/2 cup good quality cocoa powder
1/4 cup honey
1/2 tsp vanilla

Combine all ingredients in a medium saucepan and melt together until smooth (can also be done in microwave) Just heat and stir till nice and creamy. Pour about 1 tbsp size dollups in paper lined mini muffin tins. Set in freezer about 10 minutes till hardened. Store in a airtight container in fridge. This made 24 mini bites but could also be made in a regular sized muffin tin. Just add a little more to each tin (you wont get as many though.) Here's to healthy SWEET eating!!

  2. I'm soooo sharing this recipe! I just used it to make the cups and then used hazelnut butter in it and let it sit at room temperature. When it was set, it was aaaaamazing homemade vegan nutella!!! Thank you!
