Ingredients
Homemade Reese's Cups
- 1 1/2 cups creamy cashew butter
- 1/3 cup coconut flour
- 1/4 cup maple syrup
- 2 cups dark chocolate chips
- 3 tbsp coconut oil
Cookies
- 1 1/4 cups almond flour
- 1/4 cup coconut flour
- 2 eggs, room temperature
- 1/4 cup ghee or butter, room temperature
- 1/4 cup coconut oil, softened
- 1 tsp baking soda
- 1 tsp vanilla
- 1/2 cup coconut sugar
- 1 cup dark chocolate chips
Instructions
- First, make the homemade Reese's cups. Fill a muffin tray with paper liners.
- Melt dark chocolate chips with coconut oil in microwave safe dish in 30 second increments. Scoop 1 tablespoon of melted chocolate into each muffin liner. Then, set in freezer while making filling. Freeze for 15 minutes or until solid.
- To make filling, combine cashew butter, coconut flour and maple syrup. Stir to combine; batter will be thick.
- Once bottom layer is frozen, scoop 1 tablespoon of filling into each muffin liner on top of bottom chocolate layer. Top filling with 1 tablespoon of leftover melted chocolate. Freeze at least 20 minutes or until hardened.
- Next, make the cookie dough.
- Add ghee, coconut oil and coconut sugar to mixing bowl or KitchenAid. Once combined, all all remaining ingredients except chocolate chips.
- Once mixed, fold in chocolate chips.
- Add dough to an airtight container and refrigerate 1 hour up to overnight.
- When it's time to bake, preheat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Use a cookie scoop to scoop dough. Use hands to roll dough into small disc shapes that are 1.5 inches in diameter. Place a Reese's cup in the middle of half of the small discs. Place other half of dough on top of Reese's.
- Fold edges of cookie dough around Reese's, until completely covered.
- Place balls of dough at least 2 inches apart on baking sheet.
- Next, bake for 10 to 12 minutes or until middles are set.
- Finally, remove from oven and cool on pan for 5 minutes before removing to a wire rack.
Notes
- Do not try to bake these without refrigerating the dough. It helps them stay together while baking.
- Homemade Reese's or store bought Reese's can be used.
- Store leftovers covered at room temperature for up to 3 days.
