Homemade dark chocolate peanut butter cups

Chocolate is great, but chocolate mixed with peanut butter is even better! Reese's peanut butter cups are made with a lot of added sugars and junk. Try these raw guilt free peanut butter cups for a dessert this holiday season! 

Chocolate layer ingredients: 
Coconut oil
Dark chocolate unsweetened cocoa powder 
Unsweetened almond milk 
Raw honey 

Peanut butter layer: 
PB2 regular 

Directions: 
In a small sauce pan add in coconut oil (about 1/2 cup)  and melt on low heat. (Sorry for no exact measurements, I kept adding as I needed to for taste and quantity). Add in almond milk (about 1/2 cup). Stir and add in cocoa powder (1 to 2 tbsp depending on taste). Last add in enough honey to sweeten to your preference. Keep stirring. 
One all ingredients are combined fill a cupcake pan with tinfoil holders and pour in a thin layer of the chocolate mixture. Freeze this for 20 minutes. Keep remaining mixture warm and keep stirring occasionally. 
Peanut butter layer: 
Add PB2 and water together and pour on top of the chocolate. Freeze this for 20 minutes. 
Last step!!
Pour a thin layer of the remaining chocolate on top of the peanut butter layer. Freeze this for 1 hour. 
Enjoy frozen or chilled in the refrigerator
