For Valentine’s Day, why not give your loved ones a truly delicious and wholesome candy; one with ingredients that you love and can feel good about? Here’s what I make for my family on Valentine’s Day.
Homemade Chocolate Peanut Butter Cups
Chocolate Layer
In a food processor, mix all ingredients except peanut butter. Scrape out ½ of it and make a smooth layer of the mixture on a cookie sheet lined in parchment or waxed paper and place in the refrigerator for 30 minutes. Put the other half aside and keep at room temperature. While the first mixture is cooling begin the peanut butter layer.
Peanut Butter Layer
Add peanut butter and honey in a clean food processor. Smear the peanut butter topping in a uniform layer on top of the refrigerated chocolate.
Refrigerate. Once cooled, smear the last chocolate mixture on the top of the peanut butter layer. Place back in the refrigerator. When cooled, break up into individual bit-sized pieces and place in paper crinkle cups or fashion on a doily. They may remain at room temperature but a distance from the fireplace.(Yes, there’s a story behind this caution.) Usually, I keep them in a glass covered container in the fridge.
Minty Valentine Candy
Using the above recipe, omit the peanut butter layer and instead, add 10 drops of essential oil of mint. Oh heavenly day!
Orange Valentine Candy
Using the above recipe, omit the peanut butter layer and instead, add 10 drops of essential oil of orange. A little twist of orange peel on top is a lovely addition and denotes which candy is the orange one, if you decide to make a variety.
I am a homeopath with a worldwide practice working with families and individuals via Zoom. I'm also a teacher and most importantly, a mom who raised my now-adult children depending on homeopathy over the last 31 years. I lived decades of my life with food intolerances, allergies, and chemical sensitivities until I was cured with homeopathy, so I understand pain, anxiety, and suffering. You may feel that your issues are more severe or different than anyone else’s, but I have seen it all in my practice and in my work in India. My opinion is that nothing has come close to the reproducible, safe and effective results that my clients, students and I have achieved with homeopathy.

Oh these sound so delicious!! I especially like the sound of the Orange one… I use Green & Blacks Organic cocoa powder- is that similar, would you know, to the raw cocoa powder indicated in the recipe?
I just love reading your blog!!!!!
Thank you very much! Yes, the Green & Blacks Organic cocoa powder is similar to what I’ve used. Bon apppetit.
What other options would make good substitutes for the almond flour for those allergic to tree nuts?
I’ve made this candy without any nut flour, too and the results were just as delicious.
I made these yesterday for my family and they LUVed them! thank you <3
I’m going to make these with some coconut flour instead of almond to see what that’s like. Also, I LOVE cacao powder even more than raw cocoa powder.
Thanks, Joette. You are the best!
Oh! I wish I had read this before Valentine’s Day! Who doesn’t love a homemade present!! Thanks for sharing your recipes, they are my favorite posts!
These sound delicious!
