Peanut Butter Filled Raw Chocolate Hearts
Claire Dinan
It doesn’t get much better than peanut butter and chocolate in our eyes. These beauties are perfect to keep in the fridge and pop in the mouth when the sweet cravings hit. For all you peanut butter lovers out there, this one is for you.
What you need:
1 Heart mould tray
1 Bain Marie
Ingredients:

Chocolate:
1 cup/200g cacao butter (finely chopped/grated)
3-5 tbsp maple syrup
1/2 cup cacao powder
1 tsp vanilla extract
Pinch sea salt
Peanut butter filling:
3/4 cup natural smooth peanut butter

Method:
1. Melt the cacao butter in a Bain Marie over a medium heat until completely melted (if you don't have a Bain Marie don't worry, a bowl over a saucepan does the same job!)
2. Take off the heat and whisk in the cacao powder, maple syrup, vanilla extract & salt
3. Pour a small amount into each of the moulds (about half a centimetre) then place in the freezer for 5-10 mins to set
4. Take the tray out of the freezer and spoon in about half a teaspoon of peanut butter into each mould
5. Carefully pour the rest of the chocolate over the peanut butter until each mould is flat and smooth
6. Place back in the freezer for 20 minutes until completely set, then gently pop each one out! Store them in a container in the fridge/freezer and enjoy!
