Almond Butter Cups

I absolutely love Reese Cups, but they are highly processed and likely not made out of 'real' peanut butter (this is purely my opinion with no credible facts to this), nonetheless they are awesome! I made my own peanut butter a few months ago and it was great, I wasn't able to make it creamy like the PB you purchase at the store but it was very good with some jam and on biscuits.

So this weekend I figured I'd try to make almond butter and see if it was the same or similar process as with peanuts! Also, as my palette matured I am now able to eat and enjoy dark chocolate. Please don't say that dark chocolate is 'healthy' it's still chocolate guys! On the good side dark chocolate does contain antioxidants that help fight free radicals, it is also a much deeper and rich flavor so you are able to eat less! But once you taste these almond butter cups you may need to eat more than a few!!
