Tips:

  • Use a high-quality peanut butter that is creamy and smooth, without any added sugar or salt.
  • If you don't have a candy thermometer, you can test the peanut butter mixture by dropping a small amount into a cup of ice water. If the mixture forms a firm ball, it is ready.
  • Be careful not to overcook the peanut butter mixture, as this will make it dry and crumbly.
  • If you want your peanut butter cups to be extra frosty, you can freeze them for a few hours before serving.
  • For a fun twist, you can add a layer of chocolate ganache or caramel to the center of your peanut butter cups.

Conclusion:

These frosty peanut butter cups are a delicious and easy-to-make treat that is perfect for any occasion. They are also a great way to use up leftover peanut butter.
