Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 300 grams Semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 200 grams Creamy peanut butter
- 100 grams Powdered sugar
- 50 grams Butter
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 24 pieces Mini cupcake liners
Instructions
Line a mini cupcake tin with 24 mini cupcake liners and set it aside.
Melt 150 grams of semi-sweet chocolate chips in a microwave-safe bowl. Heat in 30-second increments, stirring after each interval until smooth.
Spoon about 1 teaspoon of melted chocolate into the bottom of each cupcake liner, gently spreading it up the sides slightly with the back of a spoon or a small brush. Place the tray in the freezer for 5 minutes to set.
In a medium bowl, mix the peanut butter, powdered sugar, butter, vanilla extract, and salt until a smooth and slightly firm mixture forms. If the mixture feels too soft, refrigerate for 10 minutes before proceeding.
Roll about 1 teaspoon of the peanut butter mixture into small balls and flatten slightly to form a disk. Place one peanut butter disk into each of the chocolate-lined molds.
Melt the remaining 150 grams of chocolate chips using the same microwave method as before. Spoon a layer of melted chocolate over the peanut butter disks in each mold, ensuring the peanut butter is completely covered.
Tap the tray gently on the counter to remove air bubbles and even out the chocolate topping.
Place the tray in the refrigerator for 20-25 minutes, or until the candies are fully set and firm.
Once set, remove the candies from the liners and serve. Store leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature or in the refrigerator.
