REESE'S PEANUT BUTTER CUPS (COPYCAT)
This recipe is from Todd Wilbur's "Top Secret Recipes" (www.TopSecretRecipes.com). In heaven there must be a special place for those of us who love peanut butter & chocolate. This recipe has no added butter like many other copycat recipes. You will need a muffin tin, preferably with shallow cups, but the regular size will work if filled only halfway. Times are a guess-timate and do not include cooling and firming time.

Steps:
- In a small bowl, mix the salt, peanut butter and powdered sugar until firm.
- Melt the chocolate chips in a double boiler over hot, not boiling water (OR you can melt them in the microwave for about two minutes, stirring midway).
- Grease muffin-tin cups and spoon some chocolate into each, filling halfway.
- With the back of a spoon, draw the chocolate up the edges of each cup until all sides are coated.
- Cool in the refrigerator until firm.
- Spread about a teaspoon of peanut butter mixture onto the chocolate in each cup, leaving room for the final chocolate layer.
- Pour some chocolate (I imagine you will need to re-heat it) onto the top of each candy and spread it to the edges.
- Let sit at room temperature or covered in the refrigerator.
- Turn out of pan when firm.

Tips:
- For a richer filling, use dark chocolate or semisweet chocolate instead of milk chocolate.
- To make the peanut butter filling extra creamy, use smooth peanut butter. If you prefer a chunky filling, use crunchy peanut butter.
- If you don't have a candy thermometer, you can test the chocolate to see if it's tempered by dipping a small amount into a glass of cold water. If the chocolate hardens quickly and snaps when you break it, it's tempered.
- To make the cups easier to unmold, chill them in the freezer for at least 30 minutes before you try to remove them from the molds.
- Store the cups in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks.

These Better-Than-Reeses Cups are the perfect sweet treat for any occasion. They're easy to make and always a hit with everyone who tries them. So next time you're looking for a delicious and satisfying snack, give these cups a try. You won't be disappointed!
