    Why make the vegan chocolate peanut butter cups?

    Honestly, you could feed me a combo of chocolate and peanut butter in any form and I'll be happy. But these little bites are extra special because:

    • They are super easy to put together
    • You just need 15 minutes of prep time
    • They are made with simple and healthy ingredients
    • A perfect make ahead snack or dessert

    Switching out sugar for...

    I switched the sweetener used in the recipe from stevia to powdered jaggery. Jaggery is unrefined sugar made from raw, concentrated cane juice.

    Even though it contains the same amount of calories as white sugar, it does provide various health benefits. Its digested slowly and so the energy release is also slow.

    It aids digestive health and is wonderful for liver detox as well. It is packed with antioxidants and minerals that improve resistance against infections. But no matter how healthy an ingredient is, it's wise to portion control.
