Reese Cups- Peanut Free! (no dairy, egg)

From the time I found out about my son's anaphylaxis to peanuts I had to stop eating Reese Cups. Oh my! It wasn't as devastating to me as it was my husband. It was the peanut butter sandwhiches that I missed. With much research and taste testing I found a Soy-Nut Butter that works just fine. I have made Reese Cups and peanut-butter cookies with it. And my son loves soy-nut butter and jelly sandwhiches.

Not every Soy-Nut Butters are appealing or tasty. I did find one that is creamy and tasty. It is l.M. Healthy- Honey Creamy SoyNut Butter. Check out their website at soynutbutter.com.

You can order this product on their website or check your local Whole Foods store. I have even found it at Kroger in the healthy section.

Now on to the recipe:

Peanut-Free Reese Cups

Mini-muffin cups (may also be called candy mold cups)

1- 12oz package chocolate chips (you can purchase safe chips at peanutfreeplanet.com)

1/2 cup powdered sugar

1 cup Soynut Butter (with honey makes it softer to work with)

1/4 teaspoon salt

Place the chocolate chips in a microwave-safe bowl. Melt them in the microwave on high at 30 second intervals. Meaning, every 30 seconds stop the microwave and stir then put back in. Do not overcook. Just cook until slightly melted then stir until all pieces are melted.

Using a basting brush, dip the brush into the melted chocolate and coat the inside of the muffin cup. Set aside and let harden.

While the cups are drying mix together the rest of the ingredients with a mixer until well blended. Then fill the muffin cups 3/4 of the way with the soynut butter mix.

Take the rest of the melted chocolate and spoon over the top of each cup. Fill it to the top of the muffin liner. Let dry completely. Then enjoy~
