Recipe from The Kind Diet by Alicia Silverstone
Back in the day, I was obsessed with Reese's Peanut Butter Cups. Now I make this healthier version and they are way better. In fact, I think they are the most ridiculously delicious things in the entire world. Look for graham crackers that are naturally sweetened or low in sugar (Health Valley makes a good one), and store the leftover crackers or crumbs in an airtight container for future use.Watch a cooking demonstration of this video

IngredientsChocolate Peanut Butter Cups
1/2 cup Earth Balance butter substitute
