Not only are they dairy-free, soy-free, egg-free, peanut-free, tree nut-free, wheat-free, gluten-free (and of course shellfish-free and fish-free!), but they are also made without high fructose corn syrup or artificial flavors or colors, making them healthy whole foods options for this holiday season.

Chocolate Sunflower Butter Cups

These are as easy to make as it gets. I make them with my 5 year old food allergic son Lennon, who likes the process as much as the product.

Ingredients

1 10 oz bag plus 1/ 2 cup Enjoy Life Semi Sweet Chocolate Chips (dairy-free, soy-free, gluten-free, and made in a dedicated peanut-free, tree nut-free facility)
1/4 cup sunflower butter (SunButter is made in a dedicated peanut-free, tree nut free facility)
mini cupcake pan
12 mini muffin liners

Put 12 mini muffin liners in mini cupcake pan. Melt chocolate chips in microwave safe bowl, for 30 second increments. Stir. Keep heating until chocolate chips are melted and smooth when stirred. Do not overcook, as chocolate burns easily.

Spoon 1 1/2 tsp. melted chocolate into the bottom of each mini muffin liner, top with 1 tsp. sunflower butter, then 1 1/2 tsp. chocolate. Refrigerate until set. These are great chilled but even better when you let them come to room temperature. Makes 12 cups.
