How To Make
Step #1: Prepare the cupcake tray and line it with muffin liners.
Step #2: Melt dark chocolate and 1 tablespoon coconut oil together.
Step #3: Pour in 1 1/2 tablespoons of melted chocolate into each muffin form [2/3 high]. Make sure the bottom is well covered. Place the tray in the fridge for 10 min.
Step #4: In a mixing bowl, combine the peanut butter and remaining coconut oil. Stir well until incorporated and smooth.
Step #5: Using a teaspoon or a piping bag, transfer the peanut butter batter into the muffin trays.
Step #6: Once that step is completed, use the rest of the chocolate to complete the cupcakes. Refrigerate for another 15 minutes.
Step #7: It is advisable, but not necessary, to store the cupcakes in the refrigerator for the whole day to allow the layers to harden properly.
