HOMEMADE PEANUT BUTTER CUPS

Steps:

• Melt the chocolate in the top of a double boiler. Keep the chocolate warm over low heat until you are ready to start assembling the peanut butter cups.
• Combine the peanut butter, confectioners' sugar, saltines, butter and salt in a bowl and blend with an electric mixer until well combined
• Prepare a muffin pan with 18 paper muffin liners. Add 1 teaspoon melted chocolate to the bottom of a muffin liner. Using the teaspoon, spread the chocolate in a thin, even layer on the bottom and a third of the way up the side. Repeat with the remaining liners. Place the muffin pan in the freezer until the chocolate is set and hardened, about 5 minutes.
• Spread 2 heaping teaspoons of the peanut butter filling in the bottom of a chocolate-coated muffin liner (it should come to below the chocolate line). Top the peanut butter filling with 2 more teaspoons of melted chocolate, spreading it over the top so no filling is visible. Repeat with the remaining liners. Freeze for 10 minutes.
• Serve chilled or at room temperature.

PEANUT BUTTER CUPS

Steps:

• To temper the chocolate: Chop the chocolate in to small pieces and place in a bowl over barely simmering water to melt. Bring the chocolate up to 113 degrees F. Turn off the heat, remove the bowl from the simmering water, and let cool, stirring until it reaches 82 to 86 degrees F. It will begin to set a little around the edges at this point. Return the bowl to the hot (now turned off) water for a few seconds at a time, until it reaches 88 to 91 degrees F. Do not let it go over 91 degrees or it will go out of temper.
• Pour melted milk chocolate in a candy mold with individual fluted cups to coat the insides. Pour the excess chocolate back into the bowl and let set or chill to set.
• Meanwhile, mix the peanut butter with the confectioners¿ sugar. Using a small spoon or pastry bag with a large plain tip fill each chocolate cup with the peanut butter filling leaving room for a chocolate seal and chill slightly.
• Using a paper cone or pastry bag filled with melted milk chocolate, fill in the surface of the cups to enclose the filling with chocolate. Let set, then turn out of the mold.

REESE'S PEANUT BUTTER CUP BARS

Steps:

• Mix butter, graham cracker crumbs, powdered sugar, and peanut butter. (an easy way to measure the peanut butter is to put 1 cup of water into a measuring cup, and then add enough peanut butter to it that the water reaches 2 cups).
• Press mixture into a 9x13" pan.
• Melt chocolate chips in microwave and stir until smooth (try a minute first, and then check).
• Spread chocolate carefully over peanut butter layer with a spatula. (Having one person to pour the chocolate and one to spread works well!).
• Let the chocolate cool for a while, and then cut into bars before the chocolate is completely hardened (or else the chocolate layer will just crack).
• (cooking time is cooling time, and it's a very rough estimate, I didn't keep track).

BETTER THAN REESE'S PEANUT BUTTER CUPS

REESE'S PEANUT BUTTER COOKIE CUPS

Steps:

• The first thing you need to decide is whether you will be using full size or mini Reese's cups. If you choose the full size, you will need a regular size muffin tin, but if you choose the minis you will need a mini muffin tin. I think the full size makes a better cookie.
• Preheat oven according to the cookie dough instructions, usually about 350°fF.
• Spray the muffin tins with butter spray.
• Ball up the cookie dough as though you are making cookies.
• Press enough dough into each tin to fill about half way.
• Bake according to cookie dough instructions.
• The cookies will puff up and fill the muffin tin.
• As soon as the cookies are done, take the tin out of the oven and press an unwrapped Reese's Cup into the center of each tin. This will create a peanut butter cookie crust around the cup.
• Let them set for a couple of minutes, while the chocolate and peanut butter melt.
• Get a nice tall glass of milk and enjoy this delicious treat!
