What’s better than Chocolate & Peanut butter together? DARK Chocolate and peanut butter, of course, both of which have huge resveratrol health benefits. Luckily, these dark chocolate peanut butter cups have just the right amount of rich & sweet from the dark chocolate, and the sprinkled sea salt on top gives the morsels a perfect subtle brightness.
Because this recipe is so simple, with very few ingredients, it’s very important that you use the best quality organic ingredients you can find. If you’re feeling adventurous, you can make your own organic peanut butter. It’s not hard (as long as you have a food processor to do all the word for you).
