Happy Earth Day! In addition to being adorable, Spabettie's "Earths" put a great (gluten free & vegan!) twist on traditional peanut butter cups!
Earth Day Chocolate Peanut Butter Cups
Yields 1 Dozen
1 bag dairy free chocolate chips (recommended: Trader Joe's)
1 bag white chocolate chips (recommended: Vegansweets)
1/2 cup peanut butter
food color (seelect is vegan + gluten free)
Melt chocolate in double boiler or microwave. Fill candy cups 1/3 full, coating the insides of the wrapper to the top. Cool in fridge until set. Spread a spoonful of peanut butter almost to the edge of the wrapper. Melt white chocolate ad reserve 1/3 for final step. Pour white chocolate over peanut butter layer, smoothing and covering completely. Return to fridge to cool. Separate remaining white chocolate into two bowls, coloring one green and one blue. For the last layer, swirl greens and blues to make earth shapes.
