Healthy Raspberry Cups

Going somewhere and need to "take a plate" but want to take something a bit healthy and that tastes great.  This is your recipe!

You can substitute any nut butter for the peanut butter, and if you don't have enough add a little real butter. I left out the coconut oil in the topping as I had run out and it worked perfectly, but you could use a bit of butter instead.  You can make these the day before, just store them in the fridge.
