Equipment

  • Muffin Pan
  • Paper baking cups

Ingredients

  • 1 1/2 cups food-grade cocoa butter (190g)
  • 3/4 cup macadamia nut butter (or substitute almond butter)
  • zest of 1 lemon
  • 2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
  • 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
  • 1 teaspoon pure liquid monk fruit sweetener (or substitute your preferred sugar-free liquid sweetener, to taste)
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt

Instructions

  • Add 1 1/2 cups food-grade cocoa butter to a pot on the stove set to low heat.
  • Cook, stirring constantly until melted, then immediately remove the pot from the heat.
  • Add 3/4 cup macadamia nut butter to the pot, then whisk until incorporated.
  • Add the zest of 1 lemon, 2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice, 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract, 1 teaspoon pure liquid monk fruit sweetener, and 1/4 teaspoon salt to the pot, then whisk well.
  • Divide the mixture evenly into 12 portions in a muffin pan lined with paper baking cups. For easier pouring, first transfer the mixture to a pitcher or container with a spout.
  • Refrigerate the muffin pan for at least 1 hour before serving.

Notes

  • Make sure that the cocoa butter is labeled food-grade, not cosmetic or for external use only.
  • Store in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 10 days or in the freezer for up to three months. Thaw in the fridge before serving.
