*Notes, Peanut Butter Cup Options:
We love Lakanto peanut butter cups for a great sugar-free option! Lakanto also has a peanut-free option that uses sunflower butter! Lily’s is another excellent choice for sugar-free and is easy to find in both dark and milk chocolate. If sugar is an option for you, Justin’s is an excellent brand. Need another peanut-free option? SunCups are delicious, made with sunflower butter, and available in both milk and dark chocolate variations as well!
