Taste the difference! Make this classic with your own milk chocolate and fine quality peanut butter.
Ingredients
- 4 (3.5 ounce) good quality milk chocolate bars, broken into pieces shopping list
- 1/2 - 1 cup good quality (preferably all-natural) peanut butter, creamy, chunky or a combination* shopping list
- 1/4 to 1/2 cup powdered sugar* shopping list
- Pinch salt shopping list
How to make it
- Using an electric mixer, beat the peanut butter with the powdered sugar and salt until well blended and firm.
- Slowly melt the chocolate in a double boiler set over hot, not boiling water.
- Lightly butter the cups of a muffin tin; spoon some chocolate into the bottom (about 1 1/2 teaspoons); using the spoon draw some of the chocolate up the side so there is a slight indentation. Place the tin into the refrigerator to set.
- Take about a teaspoon of peanut butter, place in the center of the chocolate, then using your fingers flatten it into a disk (do not go all the way to the edges of the chocolate).
- Reheat the chocolate then spoon over the top to cover completely, allowing the chocolate to run around the outside edge of the cup to fully enclose the peanut butter filling. Place in refrigerator to firm.
- When ready to unmold, run a knife carefully around the edge of the cup and gently remove.
- *Cook's Note: The amount of peanut butter you need depends on how much filling you want in each cup. Just be sure to keep the ratio the same 1/2 part sugar to 1 part peanut butter.
