Ingredients
- 12 mini cupcake liners
- 3/4 cup semisweet chocolate chips
- 1/2 cup creamy natural peanut butter
- 1/4 cup powdered sugar
- 1/2 t pure vanilla extract
- pinch fine sea salt [if your PB is already salted, it's optional to add more]
Directions
- melt the chips in your microwave, keeping a close eye on them and stirring often to make sure they don’t burn. it should take between 1-2 minutes.
- give them about 5 minutes to cool down a bit, it’s easier to spread around when not lava-hot.
- place a heaping teaspoon of melted chocolate in each mini cupcake liner and spread it all over the place with the back of a spoon. repeat with all 12 liners.
- place the chocolate-covered liners onto a plate, into your fridge, to let it all harden.
- meanwhile, stir together peanut butter, vanilla, salt, and sugar. if your peanut butter is anything like mine, it should form a sort of paste that you can start kneading to make sure all gets incorporated really well.
- the chocolate should be hard by now, so divide peanut butter paste into all 12 liners, pressing down gently to make sure the paste goes everywhere.
- top with heaping teaspoon of chocolate [melt it again if needed], spreading carefully so that none of the PB paste can be seen.
- chill in fridge for at least one hour, until ready to devour.
Tips
- You can also add applewood smoked bacon to the top if you're feeling ambitious! http://exoskeletoncabaret.com/?p=29
