Chocolate Peanut Butter Hearts

Do you ever want a treat that is so small you can pop it in your mouth at any time of day and not feel bad? I do! I absolutely LOVE to have bite sized desserts around, especially chocolates. Peanut butter and chocolate are both such wonderful comfort foods, the combination is a favorite of many worldwide. Growing up the Reese's Peanut Butter Cups were how I got my fix and at Christmas when my mom would make her special homemade version. Now I can enjoy a healthy version and you can too! These aren't quite the same as the original but they are made using few healthy ingredients, with a darker chocolate, are totally vegan, healthy and delicious! Plus, they are pretty, a plus. After a meal I love to have a little sweet, and this size is just enough to meet my craving and not hurt my body. These are wonderful to have in your freezer anytime!

Chocolate Peanut Butter Hearts
  • 1/4 Cup Coconut Oil - Melted 
  • 1/4 Cup Agave (or favorite syrup)
  • 1/4 Cup Cacao Powder
  • Opt: Pinch of Sea Salt
  • 3-4 Tbsp Peanut Butter

Loving Preparation:
  1. Mix together the melted coconut oil, agave and cacao powder. Opt to add a pinch of sea salt if desired, I like the salty and sweet combination.
  2. Pour 1/2 of the amount in the base of desired mold, I used a heart mold with 14 hearts. Freeze for 10 minutes until the chocolate firms.
  3. Place a dollop of peanut butter in each heart and spread on top of the chocolate. Top with remaining chocolate. Freeze until solid. Perfect when frozen overnight. 

Tip:
Melt the coconut oil by placing it in a hot water bath. Measure out 1/4 cup, place in a glass cup or dish, place that dish in a heatproof bowl and pour hot water in the heatproof bowl, ensuring it doesn't touch the coconut oil. It will melt from the heat. Replace water as needed until it is clear liquid.
