Ack! I’m such a delinquent! I tweeted and instagrammed this all over the place the other night and then left you all hanging!Â

Yeah, that would be a homemade dark chocolate almond butter cup. Did I mention it’s rich and decadent?
And low cal?Â
I wouldn’t toy with you about something like this . . . 
Dark Chocolate Almond Butter Cup
Serves one
For the chocolate shell:
2 T. Hershey’s Special Dark cocoa powder
1 T. unsweetened vanilla almond milk (any milk would probably work)
1 T. sugar free maple syrup (or agave or regular syrup would probably work, too!)
Mix all ingredients in a small bowl until very smooth–no cocoa lumps allowed!!!
Spray a small ramekin with non-stick cooking spray and spoon about half of the chocolate mixture on top. Top with a tablespoon of almond butter, then the rest of the chocolate mixture. Freeze for at least one hour until set. <–I get that this instruction is incredibly challenging and unfair. Do yourself a favor and make this when you’re cooking dinner so it’s ready for you when that 8:30 PM sweet tooth kicks in. Don’t look at me like that. You know exactly what I mean.Â
That’ll set you back about 120 calories.Â
Go forth and make almond butter cups, my friends!!!

What is the fat content in this recipe. I have to really watch my fat because of Pancreas problems. Thank you for your input…
Hi Bev! I’m not sure–it would be just the fat from your almond butter, so if you look at the nutritional stats on the jar, you should be able to find it.

WOW this looks amazing and so not low cal, but I’ll take your word for it!! xoxo
Sweet Jesus. I’m going to eat one of these every day once I’m off work for the summer. Why do you not have your own cooking show yet?
This could get me in trouble! I’m always looking for dessert recipes for 1 person so the temptation to eat more isn’t staring at me! Thanks!
That’s the idea!
Enjoy!!!
