It’s hard to stir since there’s no heat, but push it, it’s worth it!

Almond butter filling

Melt the coconut oil and mix it with the almond butter. Good combination.
Add the powdered sugar in two parts, stirring well after each and trying to remove any lumps that may have gathered.
Fill the bottoms and sides of the candy molds with chocolate using a butter knife (the consistency will be very thick). I used silicone cupcake molds for larger chocolates, but you can really use any size as long as you have enough room in the molds to fill with the almond butter as well.
