Valentines is a big deal at our house !  The kids get excited and make creative valentines for all their friends. We cut out pink and white hearts to decorate the house, and I even put personal “love” notes of encouragement on their bedroom doors.  Its a fun day and we make the best of it!

If you have been following me for a while now you all know I am a huge advocate of healthy fats and getting them in your daily diet while reducing carbohydrate content from grains, legumes, & sugars. With that said I still like a little healthy sweet treat here or there and these hit the spot. Even my hubby has been gobbling them up with plenty of compliments! The kids love em to! So I knew this recipe was a keeper and I’m sharing it with you!

Enjoy!

Enjoy right from the freezer or refrigerator. Do not store at room temperature, they will be too melty.

NOTE**Any nut or seed butter will work. Peanut, almond, cashew, pecan or sunflower seed butter, etc. I used a combo of pb and almond butter.
If you want to avoid the maple syrup or honey, you can also use just stevia, monk fruit sweetener, or suerve sweetener.

Be Well! 🙂
