Peanut Butter Cups

In August for my roomie's birthday, I made her homemade peanut butter cups. It's taken me this long to post the recipe, and I have no good excuse for a near two-month delay. So without further ado... Peanut Butter Cups.

The recipe itself comes from this blog. I made a few changes to the recipe (for convenience's sake, mostly!)

Ingredients

For the shells:

1 cup semisweet chocolate chips

1 cup milk chocolate chips

2 tbsp natural smooth peanut butter

Pinch of salt

For the peanut butter filling:

3/4 cup natural peanut butter

1/3 cup packed brown sugar

Pinch of salt

Directions:

1. Line a muffin tin with paper liners (12)
2. In a double boiler, combine chocolate, 2 tbsp of peanut butter and a pinch of salt. Stir together until melted.
3. Spoon a teaspoon or so of chocolate into each muffin liner. Shake the tin to even out the chocolate.
4. Let set.
5. In the meantime, stir the peanut butter, with the 1/3 cup of brown sugar and some salt together.
6. Once the first layer is set, spoon 1 tbsp of peanut butter mixture into the muffin liners.
7. Put in freezer until peanut butter is hardened.
8. Spoon 1 tsbp of chocolate mixture on top. Shake the tin side-to-side to even out the layer of chocolate.
9. Let set... and enjoy!!
