CHOCOLATE PEANUT BUTTER CUPS

These chocolate peanut butter cups are dangerously simple to make, with just a few ingredients that you probably have in the pantry right now. They come together faster than a trip to the convenience store. And they are completely customizable. Once you've gotten your fill of the standard peanut butter cup, try honey-sweetened cashew butter cups. Or cinnamon-spiked almond butter cups. Drizzle the finished cups with a bit of white or milk chocolate, some flaky sea salt or a sprinkle of finely chopped nuts for an upgraded presentation. Or sneak a tiny dollop of raspberry jam underneath the peanut butter layer for another delightfully classic pairing. The possibilities are endless.

Time 50m

Yield 18 cups

Number Of Ingredients 5

9 ounces/255 grams semisweet chocolate
3/4 cup/205 grams smooth natural peanut butter
1/4 cup/28 grams confectioners' sugar
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt

Steps:

  • Set 18 mini paper baking cups on a baking sheet. Melt 4 ounces of the chocolate either over a double boiler on the stove top or in short bursts in the microwave. Spoon 1 teaspoon of melted chocolate into each cup. Use an offset spatula or a small spoon to spread the chocolate slightly up the sides of each baking cup; make sure you have an even chocolate base at the bottom of each cup. Let cool at room temperature for about 15 to 20 minutes until mostly solid.
  • Meanwhile, in a medium bowl, stir together peanut butter, confectioners' sugar, vanilla extract and salt. (Make sure the peanut butter is well-combined in the jar before you measure it.) Transfer the peanut butter mixture to a resealable plastic bag and seal it tightly.
  • Cut one corner of the plastic bag and pipe 2 to 3 teaspoons of peanut butter mixture into the center of each cup. With a very lightly moistened finger, tamp down the peanut butter and make it flat and even, but leave a bit of space between the peanut butter and the edge of the paper cup (you should be able to see a ring of chocolate peeking from below the peanut butter).
  • Melt the remaining 5 ounces of chocolate. Spoon 1 teaspoon of chocolate onto the top of each cup. Use an offset spatula or a small spoon to spread the chocolate evenly over the top and down the sides of the cup. Refrigerate until solid, about 30 minutes.

WHITE CHOCOLATE PEANUT BUTTER CUPS

Found this recipe and it looks like something right up my alley. Someone in the comments section tried to convert the amounts from ounces. If you don't have a kitchen scale, I would imagine this would be pretty forgiving if just a tad off. 2 ounces = 4 tablespoons (1/4 cup) 7 ounces are anywhere from 3/4 -1 cup (about 14 tablespoons) http://erincooks.com/white-chocolate-peanut-butter-cups/ and http://www.foodnetwork.com/recipes/nigella-lawson/chocolate-peanut-butter-cups-recipe/index.html

Time 30m

Yield 48 mini liner cups, 24 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 5

2 ounces soft dark brown sugar
7 ounces confectioners' sugar
2 ounces butter, softened
7 ounces smooth peanut butter
16 ounces white chocolate (not white chocolate bits)

Steps:

  • Place all the ingredients for the base in the bowl of a food processor. Blend the mixture until the mixture takes on a sandy texture.
  • Place 12 cupcake liners into a muffin tin. Using a medium ice cream or cookie scoop place 1 scoop of the base mixture into each cupcake liner. Press the mixture down to form an even layer at the bottom of each mini cupcake liner.
  • Melt the chocolate over a double-boiler. Using your scoop, top each peanut butter filled cupcake liner with 1 scoop of chocolate. Smooth the tops of the Peanut Butter Cups with the back of a spoon.
  • Refrigerate for 1 hour or overnight.
  • Note: To make this quicker, melt the white chocolate in the microwave. Microwave on 30% power for 2 minutes, remove and stir. Continue microwaving on 30 second intervals, stirring after each interval, until chips are melted and mixture is smooth. Do not overheat or the white chocolate will stiffen.

Tips:

  • Use high-quality chocolate: The quality of your chocolate will greatly impact the final product, so be sure to use a high-quality white chocolate and peanut butter.
  • Temper your chocolate: Tempering your chocolate will help it set up properly and give it a smooth, shiny finish. If you're not sure how to temper chocolate, there are plenty of resources available online.
  • Use a silicone mold: A silicone mold will make it easy to remove the peanut butter cups from the mold once they've set. If you don't have a silicone mold, you can use a mini muffin tin lined with parchment paper.
  • Chill the peanut butter cups: After you've filled the molds with chocolate and peanut butter, be sure to chill them for at least 30 minutes before serving. This will help them set up properly.

Conclusion:

These white chocolate peanut butter cups are a delicious and easy-to-make treat that are perfect for any occasion. With just a few simple ingredients, you can create a batch of these delicious candies that are sure to be a hit with everyone who tries them. So next time you're looking for a sweet treat, give these white chocolate peanut butter cups a try – you won't be disappointed!
