Frozen Chaga Coconut Peanut Butter Chocolate Cups
treat yourself and make these peanut butter cups.
Frozen Peanut Butter cups are my go-to dessert cause they are beyond easy to make and satisfy my sweet tooth! It's easy to modify this recipe to add in whatever you want, so this time around I added in Root and Bones Chaga. Chaga is known as the "King of Plants" and has one of the highest antioxidant concentrations of any plant, is loaded with digestive enzymes and also helps to reduce inflammation, cleanse the liver, and promote endurance. Try them for yourself and you will be hooked!
