Our White Chocolate Matcha Almond Butter Cups were inspired by a trip last year to one of the oldest artisanal chocolate factories in Italy. Everything was handcrafted and smelt like Heaven on Earth. Subtle, sweet, nutty, divine... the list could go on!
How can I substitute some ingredients?
This recipe has two main, very simple, ingredients:
1. Chocolate
2. Nut Butter
With that said, you absolutely can alternate the white chocolate for your favorite cacao. Similarly, choose the nut butter of your preference so that this recipe is satisfying in every bite!
However, the key is to ‘invest’ in high quality chocolate and nut butter. That’s where the best flavors shine through!
... But if you are looking for something unique or a matcha lover, then fair warning - these little guys are ADDICTING !!
Other Seasonal Inspiration
Simply follow this recipe’s same instructions and ingredients, with the following easy changes:
Pumpkin Cashew Butter Cups
- Replace the matcha powder with pumpkin spice and try using cashew butter or almond butter
Red Velvet Almond Butter Cups
- Add 1-2 drops of red food coloring to the white chocolate. In a piping bag, fill one side with cream cheese and the other side with almond butter to pipe into the filling.
Dark Chocolate Blueberry Peanut Butter Cups
- Replace the matcha and white chocolate with dark chocolate. Fill each with peanut butter, then press a fresh blueberry into the center.
I love anything "miniature-sized," so I opted for these, super easy to work with, silicone mini chocolate molds from Amazon... linked below...
I truly hope you all enjoy this sneaky little treat that is oh! so! delicious! 'till next time... xxL
