Gluten Free Almond Butter Cups

These little chocolate cups are the kind of treat that disappears fast — rich dark chocolate on the outside, creamy almond butter filling on the inside, and a pinch of flaky sea salt on top if you're feeling fancy. Store-bought peanut butter cups are almost always made on shared lines with wheat-containing products, so having a homemade version you can trust is genuinely worth the effort. The ingredient list here is naturally free of gluten without any specialty swaps or hard-to-find flours — just dark chocolate, coconut oil, almond butter, and a few pantry staples. The double-freeze method is the real trick: chilling the chocolate shells before adding the filling keeps everything neat and structured, so you end up with clean, professional-looking cups every time. Each one gets a smooth almond butter layer pressed flat and then sealed under a final pour of melted chocolate, which means no messy filling peeking out. The recipe makes a full dozen, so they're perfect for sharing at a party, packing into a holiday tin, or stashing in the freezer for whenever a chocolate craving hits. Just peel back the liner and you're in business.
