Peanut Butter Cups

Today I came across a recipe on Pinterest for homemade peanut butter cups and surprisingly I had all the ingredients to at least try it out! They are so incredibly amazing even though mine didn't even come out like they were supposed to.

What you"ll need:


For the chocolate
1 1/2 cups of chopped semisweet chocolate
2 tbs of peanut butter
and a pinch of salt I used sea salt


Peanut Butter Filing
3/4 cup peanut butter
1/3 cup powdered sugar
Graham cracker crumbs(optional)
1 tsp of buttermilk (optional)


To start you would have to melt your chocolate in whatever way seems easiest, I used the stove top on medium low heat and added the rest of my ingredients.


While the chocolate is melting get your muffin tin and prepare it with paper liners.
Place 2 tsp of the chocolate sauce in each cupcake liner make sure to carefully spread some of it up the liner but not entirely to the top, stick it in the fridge for 30 mins.


Meanwhile prepare the peanut butter filling by mixing all the rest of the ingredients.
Your chocolate should be hard by now so spread 1 tbs of the filing on top make sure its nice and packed, once again place in fridge for about 20 mins.


Top with 2 tsp of your melted chocolate very carefully and make sure the filling isn't visible, pop it in the fridge for an hour and enjoy!


These were so good, the hardest part was the waiting in between! But trust me you'll never wanna buy em at the store ever again.
