I'm not sure what went wrong, but my peanut butter cups turned out really crumbly. I think I might have overmixed the dough.

These peanut butter cups were a total disaster! The chocolate coating was too thick and the peanut butter filling was too runny. I would not recommend this recipe.

The peanut butter cups were good, but I found them to be a bit too rich. I think I would prefer a peanut butter cup with a lighter chocolate coating.

These peanut butter cups were a bit too sweet for my taste. I think I would use less sugar next time.
