Shakeology Peanut Butter Cups
Those bunnies, eggs and peeps are STILL around! But the reality is that candy and junk will ALWAYS be everywhere…especially if you work in just about any office setting or have kids. Reese’s are just so darn good. The longer I’ve stayed away from them, however, the more fake and plastic-y they taste to me. Oh, maybe because they are fake? Well, never mind - try these healthy, full of nutrients, no guilt candies instead! For this recipe, I used Vegan Chocolate, but really any flavor can be used.
Ingredients
2 tbsp Nutiva Organic Extra Virgin Coconut Oil
5 tbsp Vegan Chocolate Shakeology
3 tbsp PB2 or all natural peanut or almond butter
2 tbsp water (may need to adjust if you're using natural PB or almond butter)
small cupcake liners or silicone ice cube tray
In a microwave safe bowl add the Nutiva coconut oil and nuke until melted. Remove and add Shakeology to the bowl, stir. Add just barely enough of the Shakeology and coconut oil mix to to cover the bottom of your cupcake liners or tray. Once filled, put them in the freezer for 1-2 minutes. In the meantime, in a bowl combine the PB2 with the water. Pull the liners/tray out of the freezer. Add about 1/2-1 tsp of the PB2 mix on top of the Shakeology layer. Finally, top off the PB2 layer with enough of the remaining Shakeology/coconut mix to cover the PB2. Pop in the freezer for about 5-10 minutes. ENJOY! Keep in the freezer so they stay solid!
I will admit that I was in a mad rush to make these and wanted a sample - fast! So instead of waiting for the layers, I just mixed all up in one batch and guess what? Came out just as good. :)
