Pro Tips
• For easy removal, use silicone candy molds or mini paper/silicone muffin liners. A mini muffin tin works perfectly to hold the liners.
• Adjust the sweetener to your personal taste. Liquid sweeteners like stevia or monk fruit drops incorporate more easily than granulated versions.

• For a smoother, fudgier texture, ensure your nut butter is creamy and at room temperature before mixing.
