Raw PB Cup with Espresso Chocolate

This Raw PB Cup recipe has a little backstory. My midwife asked me for it and I happily obliged to measure and write it up especially for her. When we first started looking for a midwife for our first born, Val was the first we met with, she was bright, cheerful and kind- we knew it was her. But what really hit it home was when she got a little emotional after we explained that Dave had no records of family history because he was left at a doorstep. She immediately asked if this baby would be his first and only known blood relative. We nodded. She looked at him with tears in her eyes and said, “This is going to be a powerful and intense experience for you as well.” That’s when we decided to look no further.

This recipe has held tried and true in those moments when a cup of tea and biscuit just won’t cut it. Its simple, quick and can be easily adaptable to make 1 single cup or a batch and most likely you have all of the ingredients on hand so be forewarned its good, really good.
