Categories     Snack, dessert

Time 10m

Number Of Ingredients 5

2 1/2 cups of semi-sweet chocolate chips
Cooking spray
2 cups (16 ounces) of smooth peanut butter
1 stick of butter (unsalted)
2 1/2 cups powder sugar

Steps:

  • Melt the chocolate in a large microwave-safe bowl for 30 seconds at a time until the chocolate melts, stirring after each 30-second increment.
  • Spray a tart pan with cooking spray.
  • Pour half the melted chocolate into the pan and make sure the chocolate covers the bottom sides evenly.
  • Put the pan in the refrigerator for about 30 minutes, until the chocolate hardens.
  • While the chocolate is chilling, in a large bowl, mix the peanut butter, butter, and powdered sugar.
  • Once the chocolate has chilled enough to set, take the tart pan out of the refrigerator. Add the peanut butter mixture to the chocolate-lined tart pan and spread in an even layer over the hardened chocolate.
  • Pour the remaining melted chocolate on top of the peanut butter and smooth into a thin layer, so that there are no gaps.
  • Place the tart pan back in the refrigerator for another 30 minutes, until the peanut butter cup hardens.
  • Once it has hardened, slice the peanut butter cup into 10 slices and serve!

Categories     dessert

Time 2h55m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 6

One 15.25-ounce box chocolate or devil's food cake mix (plus required ingredients)
3/4 cup natural peanut butter
1/4 cup butter, softened
1 cup confectioners' sugar
Pinch salt
1 1/2 cups store-bought hardening chocolate sauce

Steps:

  • For the cake: Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F. Prepare the cake batter according to the package instructions. Pour into the bottom of a jumbo silicone cupcake mold and bake until a tester comes out clean, about 1 hour. Let cool completely, then unmold the cake onto a cooling rack set in a baking sheet.
  • For the filling: Meanwhile, beat together the peanut butter and butter with an electric mixer until completely combined. Slowly add in the confectioners' sugar about a 1/4 cup at a time, beating in between additions, until completely incorporated. Beat in the salt. Set aside until ready to use.
  • Cut off the domed top of the cake if one has formed, and save for another use (or eat!). Cut the cake horizontally into 3 layers and put them on a work surface Use a paring knife to cut out a 3 1/2-inch hole from the middle layer; set the cake layer aside (save the cutout for another use).
  • Stack the bottom and middle cake layers on the prepared cooling rack. Fill the hole in the center with the peanut butter filling. Place the last cake layer on top. Invert the cake onto a plate and chill in the freezer for 10 minutes.
  • Pour some of the hardening chocolate sauce over the top of the cake and use a rubber spatula to gently smooth and level it. Using a silicone brush, apply more of the chocolate sauce on the sides of the cake. Chill in the refrigerator for 10 minutes, then invert the cake onto a serving platter. Spread the remaining chocolate sauce on top of the cake in an even layer and chill in the refrigerator until set.
  • Cut the cake into slices, exposing the peanut butter center.
