Ingredients
  

For the chocolate

  • 1 cup Dark Chocolate Chips
  • 2 tsp Instant Coffee

For the almond butter filling

  • ¼ cup Almond Butter
  • 4 tsp Powdered sugar
  • 4 tsp milk

Instructions
 

  • Prepare a cupcake pan by lining with cupcake liners
  • Melt chocolate chips either in the microwave or on the stove by using a saucepan of boiling water with a glass bowl resting on top.
  • When the chocolate is completely melted add instant coffee and stir to combine
  • Divide 1/2 of the melted chocolate between 12 muffin cups. Chocolate should just cover the bottom of each muffin cup
  • Put muffin pan with chocolate in the freezer while making the almond butter filling to allow for the chocolate to harden before adding the filling.
  • Combine the almond butter, powdered sugar and milk until well incorporated
  • Scoop 1 tsp of the almond butter fulling into each cup. Using a spoon gently press filling so it is evenly spread over the chocolate on the bottom.
  • Divide the remaining melted chocolate between the 12 almond butter cups. The chocolate should just cover the almond butter filling.

Notes

I used almond butter, but you can use any nut butter or nut butter alternatives such as wow butter.
