- In a separate bowl, combine peanut butter, honey, coconut oil, and sea salt (if using). Microwave for 15-20 seconds, or until softened and pourable. Stir to mix well.

-
Make the chocolate layer:
- Melt the chocolate chips and coconut oil in the microwave for 1 minute. Stir, then continue heating in 30-second intervals until smooth.
- Pour just enough melted chocolate over each cup to cover the peanut butter layer. If desired, sprinkle flaked sea salt on top for added flavor and texture.
- Set the cups: Place the muffin tin back in the freezer for 30 minutes to 1 hour, or until fully set. Remove the cups from the freezer and store in the refrigerator until ready to serve.
Storage Tips:
- Keep the peanut butter cups refrigerated or frozen, as the coconut oil makes them prone to melting at room temperature.
- For longer storage, freeze the cups for up to 2 months. Let them sit at room temperature for 5-10 minutes before serving if stored in the freezer.
