Ingredients
Strawberry chia filling:
- 2 cups strawberries sliced
- 1 Tbsp maple syrup
- 1 Tbsp lemon juice
- 1 Tbsp chia seeds
Cashew butter filling:
- 1 cup cashew butter unsalted
- 1 Tbsp maple syrup
- pinch of salt
Chocolate mixture:
- 1 cup dark chocolate chips
- 2 tsp coconut oil
- pinch of salt
Instructions
- To make the strawberry chia filling, combine strawberries, maple syrup, and lemon juice in small saucepan over medium heat.
- Stir occasionally, and mash strawberries as they cook to help break them down.
- Once boiling, reduce heat to medium-low and cook for an additional 10-15 minutes until it becomes a thick mixture.
- Remove strawberry filling from heat and mix in chia seeds. Set aside to cool.
- Combine cashew butter, maple syrup, and salt in a small bowl. Mix well, then set aside.
- Add chocolate chips and coconut oil to a microwave-safe bowl. Heat in the microwave in 30 second increments and stir after each time until completely melted and combined. (Will take approximately 1 minute 30 seconds).
- Line a half dozen muffin tin with 6 muffin liners.
- Add 2 teaspoons of chocolate in each liner making sure to coat sides. Place in the freezer for 10 minutes, until solid.
- Remove muffin tin from freezer and add 2 teaspoons of cashew butter mixture in each liner on top of the solid chocolate.
- Add 1 teaspoon of strawberry chia filling on top of cashew butter.
- Add the remaining chocolate mixture on top of the chia filling.
- Freeze for 30 mins, or until completely hardened.
