Alright people, brace yourselves for what could possible be the shortest (and arguably most delicious and highly anticipated) recipe posts in the history of this little blog of mine.

You see, sometimes in life, there are moments when there really are no need for words.

And I firmly believe that this, my friends, might be one of them.

Plus, after sharing a couple of sneaky snaps (see → here and → here) of this recipe on Instagram over the weekend, you guys were pretttyyyy vocal about how much you wanted the recipe, and quickly! So . . .

Allow me to present, without further ado, my highly anticipated, deliciously simple, 3 ingredient dark chocolate matcha coconut butter cups.

In all honesty, I have been wanting to make this recipe for quite sometime now but, for some reason or another I just hadn’t quite got around to it. But, I figured with St Patrick’s Day coming up this weekend (you know, because they’re green?! #anyexcuse) plus, I somehow managed to have a spare 5 minutes AND everything I needed within arms reach, now was the perfect time!

And let me tell you, these dark chocolate matcha coconut butter are everything I hoped they would be, and more!

Decadent, rich, deliciously indulgent, cool crisp dark chocolate cups encasing a subtly sweet, silky smooth, creamy, dreamy, matcha infused, coconut butter center . . .

Yep, definitely one of those occasions where words are not required!

I mean, really . . .

3 ingredients, 5 minutes in the making = deliciously winning on so many levels!

They are rich in antioxidants, will help boost immunity, increase energy, rev your metabolism, aids digestion, concentration, focus and mental clarity as well as helping to regulate blood sugar!!!!

3 Ingredient Dark Chocolate Matcha Coconut Butter Cups
{Vegan, Gluten Free, Dairy Free, Sugar Free, Keto & Paleo Friendly}

Makes 8-10 Deliciously simple, subtly sweet, buttery smooth, seriously indulgent, matcha infused, dark chocolate, coconut butter cups that are as nutritious as they are delicious! Something you’ll really want to sink your teeth into

Ingredients –

1/2 cup of your fave dark chocolate (or you can make your own)

3 Tablespoons of coconut butter , melted and cooled

1 teaspoon of matcha green tea powder

1 teaspoon of vanilla (or 4-6 drops of vanilla cream stevia – I like to use Sweet Leaf Stevia )

A pinch of salt

1 scoop of  Vital proteins unflavored collagen peptides – optional for an extra dose of protein and gut healing goodness

Method –

1 – Melt the chocolate by your preferred method. I like to place my chocolate onto a small plate or bowl and sit it over a pot of gently simmering water, stirring occasionally until nice and melted.

2 – Once melted, use a teaspoon to drizzle some melted chocolate into a chocolate mold (or can use mini paper or silicone cupcake/muffin cases if you prefer) and spread to coat evenly. Don’t use all your chocolate, remember you want to save about 1/4 of it to spread on top once your chocolate cups are filled.

3 – Place your chocolate cups in the fridge or freezer to set.

4 – While your chocolate cups are setting, place your malted coconut butter in to  a small bowl add the matcha and vanilla and stir to combine.

Once that’s done your chocolate cups should be set, ready to be filled.

5 – Fill each chocolate cup with about a teaspoon of your matcha coconut butter, use the back of your spoon carefully press down and smooth it out – gently but firmly  pressing down as you go.

Repeat until all your chocolate cups have been filled.

6 – Once filled, drizzle each cup with a little of your left over chocolate, then pop them back into the fridge (or freezer) to set.

7 – To serve, sprinkle with a touch of flakey, pink Himalayan sea salt and enjoy.

These delicious little cups are best stored in the fridge or freezer will keep well in a sealed, airtight container the fridge for several weeks (if they last that long, mine never do!)  but, they can also be stored in the freezer for at least 3-6 months!

Enjoy xo
