INGREDIENTS
- 2 cups (350g) chocolate (milk, dark, or semi-sweet), coarsely chopped
- 1/2 cup (125g) smooth peanut butter
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/4 cup (30g) icing/powdered sugar
- 2 tablespoons (28g) unsalted butter, melted
INSTRUCTIONS
- Add the chocolate to a microwave-safe bowl and heat in 30 second intervals, stirring after each one, until melted and smooth.
- Line a muffin pan with muffin cases, then add 1 tablespoon of melted chocolate into each case. Spread out evenly. Freeze until firm - about 10 minutes.
- Add the peanut butter, vanilla, icing sugar, and butter to a microwave-safe bowl, and mix until combined. Heat until slightly runny, and can easily be poured.
- Add 1 tablespoon of the peanut butter mixture into each muffin case, topping the chocolate layer. Freeze until firm.
- Top the peanut butter layer with the remaining melted chocolate, and freeze until firm.
NOTES
For a peanut butter cup with a firmer texture, serve chilled. For a softer, creamier texture, serve at room temperature.
