Homemade Football Peanut Butter Cups

Preparation

1. Make the Filling Line a small baking sheet with parchment paper. In a medium bowl, combine the peanut butter, honey, and almond flour. Mix thoroughly until a uniform dough forms. Scoop out approximately 2 tablespoons of the mixture, roll it into a ball, and place it on the prepared baking sheet. Repeat with the remaining mixture.
2. Shape the Footballs & Chill Gently press down on each peanut butter ball with your fingers, shaping the sides to form an oval or football-like shape. Repeat the shaping process for all balls. Transfer the baking sheet to the freezer and chill for at least 20 minutes, or until firm.
3. Melt the Chocolate In a medium microwave-safe bowl, combine the chocolate and coconut oil. Microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring well after each interval, until the chocolate is fully melted and smooth. Allow the mixture to cool slightly if it is very hot.
4. Coat the Footballs with Chocolate Place one chilled peanut butter oval on a fork. Using a spoon, scoop melted chocolate over the oval, allowing excess chocolate to drip off through the tines of the fork. Return the coated oval to the lined baking sheet. Repeat the process with the remaining ovals. Let the chocolate-coated shapes harden at room temperature for at least 20 minutes.
5. Make the White Chocolate Stitches Melt the white chocolate in a small microwave-safe bowl using short intervals and stirring frequently until smooth. Dip a toothpick into the melted white chocolate and carefully draw short lines across the center of each chocolate-coated oval to resemble the laces of a football. Return the shapes to the freezer or refrigerator and chill for an additional 10–20 minutes to set completely before serving.
