These delicious dark chocolate peanut butter cups feature a double dose of one of the world’s most popular crops – peanuts. A versatile superfood, peanuts are actually legumes although they share many characteristics with nuts. They make for a tasty and beneficial superfood because they contain:
Oleic acid:
a monounsaturated fatty acid which may lower bad cholesterol levels.
Dietary fiber:
normalizes bowel movements and regulates blood sugar levels.
Resveratrol:
an antioxidant which has been found to have a protective function against cancers, heart disease, degenerative nerve disease, Alzheimer’s disease, and viral/fungal infections.
These cups are dairy-free, gluten-free, soy-free and 100% delicious!
