Chocolate-Sunflower Seed Butter Cups
Makes 24

Ingredients:
1 cup gluten-free crispy rice cereal
1/2 cup sunflower seed butter
2 cups allergen-free chocolate chips

Directions:
Line a mini muffin pan with paper liners. In a food processor, combine rice cereal and sunflower seed butter. Blend together until cereal is completely broken down. In a small saucepan, heat chocolate chips over medium heat, stirring continuously, until chocolate is half-way melted. Remove from heat and continue stirring until completely melted. Spread 1 1/2 teaspoons melted chocolate into each muffin paper. Top chocolate with 1 teaspoon sunflower seed butter mixture. Top each candy with 1 1/2 teaspoons melted chocolate. Refrigerate for at least 1 hour before serving. Keep candies in the refrigerator before serving, as the chocolate will begin to melt in a warmer room.
Makes 6 servings (or 4 more-generous servings)
