Ingredients Method

Ingredients
  

  • 2 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips
  • 1 cup creamy peanut butter
  • 1/4 cup powdered sugar
  • 2 tablespoons unsalted butter melted
  • 1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract

Method
 

  1. Line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners and set aside.
  2. Melt 1 cup of chocolate chips in a microwave-safe bowl in 30-second intervals, stirring between each, until smooth.
  3. Spoon about 1 tablespoon of melted chocolate into each muffin liner and spread to cover the bottom, then refrigerate for 15 minutes until set.
  4. Meanwhile, mix together peanut butter, powdered sugar, melted butter, and vanilla extract in a bowl until smooth and well combined.
  5. Scoop about 1 tablespoon of peanut butter mixture onto each chocolate base and gently flatten, leaving a small border around the edges.
  6. Melt the remaining 1 cup of chocolate chips and spoon over the peanut butter layer, spreading to cover completely and seal the edges.
  7. Refrigerate for at least 1 hour until completely set, then remove from liners and store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks.
