Chocolate SunButter Cups

It's that time of the year again when it's okay to eat, and perhaps even encouraged, to eat those sweet treats.  What we LOVED about these SunButter Chocolate Cups is that not only are they super easy to make with children (no oven needed), but once they are made, they can also be decorated as you wish.  Add some Halloween allergy friendly candy on top (think orange and black sprinkles) and voila, now you look like a pasty chef!   Children with peanut, tree nut or dairy allergies will be oh so pleased.

Okay so let's get baking, er we mean making...
