Notes
For the candida or sugar-free style chocolate cup use 80% dark chocolate or gluten-free carob. // Allergies to sunflower seeds? No sweat! Use any of the following: walnut butter, almond butter, cashew butter, hemp seed butter, pumpkin seed butter, tahini, and any other nut or seed butter of choice. // If you do not use salted sunflower seed butter you will have to add salt to each cup. I would do a drizzle of salt on top before you put it in the freezer. //
