1 cup unsalted butter, melted
2 tablespoons avocado oil
1 ¼ cups granulated sugar
1 cup light brown sugar, packed
4 large eggs, room temperature, lightly beaten
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
1 cup all-purpose flour or gluten-free flour
1 cup unsweetened dark cocoa powder
½ teaspoon salt
6 ounces dark chocolate chips
4-5 JUSTIN’S® Peanut Butter Cups (we used Super Dark Chocolate Peanut Butter and White Chocolate Peanut Butter Cups)
¼ cup organic chocolate Easter eggs
Organic sprinkles (optional)
Preheat oven to 350°F. Grease a 9×9-inch baking pan, and line with parchment paper. Set aside.
In a medium bowl, mix together the melted butter, oil, and sugars. Mix in the eggs and vanilla.
In a separate medium bowl, sift together the flour, cocoa powder, and salt. Fold the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients until just combined. Stir in the chocolate chips. Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan and smooth into an even layer. Bake 25 to 30 minutes. Remove from oven and top with chopped peanut butter cups and Easter chocolates.
Cool in pan for 15 to 20 minutes. Lift the sides of the parchment paper to remove from the pan and allow them to cool completely before slicing into 16 squares.
I love to throw parties for friends and family. Sometimes they get a little crazy and we have to tell Grandma to stop dancing on the table. But, when she gets a hold of these almond coco-nutty buddies, it’s really hard to get her to stop. With JUSTIN’S® Classic Almond Butter packed into every bite, it’s hard to blame her. Get down from there, Grandma. You’re going to break something.
Charcuterie is a great word. It hits a lot of great sounds in one succinct word. Char-coo-ter-ee. Scientists still say they don’t know what it means, I’m pretty sure. When you’re making a charcuterie board for your guests, this Cranberry Almond Butter Baked Brie is a perfect fit and dip for spreads of all kinds. I make it with JUSTIN’S® Classic Almond Butter, cranberry sauce, and a sprig of rosemary for garnish.
This Paleo Almond Butter Crusted Chicken is anything but average. I’ve added JUSTIN’S® Classic Almond Butter in the marinade to complement the chicken. I also use almond meal instead of bread crumbs and I promise you, the taste isn’t compromised. My family loves this recipe for dinner, and I think yours will too!

Don’t be a meanie, eat a panini! My Cheesy Almond Butter, Apple + Bacon Panini has got everything it says in the title and maybe a little more if you add some extra love to the mix. It’s also got JUSTIN’S® Classic Almond Butter in it, which is basically love, anyways.
Spaghetti and meatballs. Peanut butter and jelly. Biscotti and coffee. These things just go together. My Chocolate Hazelnut Espresso Biscotti is made with JUSTIN’S® Chocolate Hazelnut and Almond Butter and dunks perfect with any cup of Joe…or in this case, a cup of Justin!
