Mini Salted Caramel Cups - Vegan

Vegan Chocolate

Hey guys! It's been a while since my last recipe and I apologize for that. Life has gotten in the way. I unexpectedly got a job teaching yoga this week. I was terrified to lead my first class but I did it and it was really great. I'm pretty excited about it! The time that I designated for making awesome foods went towards practicing leading a yoga class. But no worries because today I'm coming at ya with salted caramel cups. Oh yeah! I'm actually leaving in a hour to go to the Pirates game and I took a nice long bike ride with my sister this morning.

These salted caramel cups are a total of 5 ingredients! Beware though, they're pretty addicting. But that's okay because all of these ingredients will make  you glow as bright as the sun. Who doesn't want that?! I didn't want to share these with anyone, but I did because I needed other opinions on the taste. Thumbs up! You might want to make a double batch though, just to be safe!
