Almond Joy Cups

With only three days until Valentine's days I thought I would give you another homemade chocolate treat recipe.  This time I gave a makeover to one of my favorite candy bars, Almond Joys. With only 5 ingredients that you can actually identify and less than 10 minutes of preparation time, you've got yourself a healthy homemade candy bar.  

This year, instead of purchasing a box of chocolates for your Valentine, impress them with these homemade Almond Joy Cups! Homemade sweets are just that much sweeter, I promise! 



Almond Joy Cups

Makes: 24, Servings: 12

Ingredients
  • 3 tablespoons coconut oil
  • 2 tablespoons honey
  • ½ cup almond butter
  • 3 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 1/3 cup coconut flakes
  • ⅓ cup roasted almonds (optional)

Directions
  1. In a small bowl, combine the coconut oil, honey and almond butter.
  2. Microwave ingredients for 30 seconds and stir.
  3. Add in cocoa powder and coconut flakes and mix until well combined.
  4. Divide mixture into 24 mini muffin tins and top each with a roasted almond. 
  5. Freeze for 30 minutes, use a knife to pop out of muffin tin then store in an airtight container in the freezer.
