Almond Butter Cups (Low Carb and Gluten Free)

September 3, 2012 By Karen Sorenson

This content will be shown before all post
I used the following ingredients for Low Carb Almond Butter (or any nut butter) Cups:
1/2 cup coconut oil, melted
1/2 cup cocoa powder
1/2 cup powdered sweetener (I used Swerve Confectioners’ Style)
1/2 cup almond butter, divided

Line a mini muffin tin with cupcake liners and poor enough chocolate into each liner to cover the bottom (1/2 – 1 tsp).  Place the muffin tin in the refrigerator until it hardens (30-40 mins).  Next add 1 tsp of almond butter into each muffin cup and smooth out the top.  Cover the almond butter with the chocolate mixture (about 1 tsp) and allow the almond butter cup to harden.

Net Carb Count*:
Almond Butter Cups:  24 net carbs (for the entire recipe as listed above–makes about 20 Almond Butter Cups)*Note carb counts are estimated based on the products I used. Check nutrition labels for accurate carb counts

 Enjoy!~Karen
