Let’s talk about the chocolate and butterscotch chips used in this recipe!
I was so excited when I walked down the baking aisle and saw that Lily’s came out with a keto option for butterscotch baking chips! I have used their semi-sweet and dark chocolate chips and love them! So, I knew their new flavor was going to be good. And I was right! The combination of semi-sweet chocolate chips and butterscotch chips makes for an awesome match that I’m sure you’ll enjoy. I have a kitchen scale and I measured my chips in ounces. But if you don’t, 5 ounces of chips measure out to be almost 1 cup. 4 ounces of chips are approximately ¾ cup.
Let’s talk about the other ingredients in these keto chocolate butterscotch peanut butter cups!
Peanut butter is a key ingredient in this recipe. It combines with the chocolate and butterscotch chips to create an awesome flavor for these treats. Read your nutrition labels carefully when choosing peanut butter. I choose peanut butter that contains only peanuts, or peanuts and salt. For the coconut oil, I like a little hint of coconut flavor to come through in this recipe. For that reason, I use unrefined coconut oil. It has a stronger coconut flavor than the refined oil. A little vanilla and salt round out this recipe and enhance the flavor of these sweets!
Do you have any tips for making these keto chocolate butterscotch peanut butter cups?
This is a quick and easy recipe; but there are a few things you can do to ensure its success. First, use liners in your mini muffin tins. The chocolates will pop right out of them when you’re ready to eat them! Second, I suggest using a measuring cup or pourable container to fill your muffin tins. This makes the process easier and less messy! Last, freeze your chocolates for about an hour to let them set completely. You can eat them right away or store them in the refrigerator until you’re ready to serve them.
