Ingredients:  
BOTTOM LAYER (CHOCOLATE)
1/3 cup all-natural peanut butter
2.5 tablespoons melted coconut oil
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
3 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder
2 tablespoons maple syrup

TOP LAYER (PEANUT BUTTER)
1/3 cup all natural peanut butter, creamy

Himalayan sea salt (optional)
Directions:
Directions:
Line a muffin tin with 9-12 muffin liners. Spray with coconut oil cooking spray and set aside.

In a medium bowl, stir all ingredients for the bottom layer (chocolate) together until smooth. Set aside.
In another medium bowl, stir all ingredients for the top layer (peanut butter) together until smooth. Set aside.
Scoop a heaping 1/2 tablespoon of the chocolate layer into each muffin cup. Repeat until you’ve filled around 9-12 cups. Then, pick up the entire muffin tin and shake and tap until the layer is set evenly.

Repeat the same thing with the peanut butter layer, plopping around 1/2 tablespoon on top of the chocolate layer. Pick up the entire muffin tin one last time and shake and tap until your cups are even.
Finally, sprinkle each cup with some Himalayan sea salt if desired.

Place muffin tin in the freezer for 30 minutes or until firm. Enjoy! Store peanut butter cups in an airtight freezer bag to enjoy for later.
