Homemade Peanut Butter Cups image

I tried a peanut butter cup recipe already posted, but I didn't like the graham cracker addition. I feel that it made it too gritty. I found this posted on another site.

Time 1h5m

Yield 30 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 1/2 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips (dark chocolate or white chocolate, whatever you prefer. I used a little bit of each kind)
1/2 cup creamy peanut butter
1/2 cup crunchy peanut butter
1/2 cup confectioners' sugar
1/2 teaspoon vanilla
1 pinch salt

Steps:

  • Set 2 dozen mini muffins wrappers on a baking sheet. Melt half of the chocolate, using a microwave-safe bowl and cooking it in short 30 second intervals until smooth.
  • Using a spoon, pour a little bit of chocolate in each muffin wrapper and using a small clean brush to paint the chocolate up the sides of each wrapper. Chill candy for 20-30 minutes.
  • In a small bowl, whisk together peanut butters, sugar, vanilla and salt. When mixture has come together, microwave until very, very soft. About 30 seconds.
  • Once candy has chilled, spoon generous amounts of peanut butter mixture into each candy cup. Chill for another 30 minutes.
  • Melt the rest of the chocolate and fill each muffin cup once they have chilled. Chill until set.
