Recipe Description

First combine 1/4 cup of peanut butter, your powder sugar, butter, and salt in a bowl. mix together, until it becomes a little doughy, just manageable in your fingers without sticking. Add a little more powder sugar if you need too.

Now we melt the chocolate. In this image, I am using the double boiler method. Essentially you take a pot put a bit of water in the bottom and heat it up so it steams. You have a bowl on top that fits on it, if the bowl is a little small use a strainer to hold it. The steam heats up the bowl and melts the chocolate nicely. Make sure to stir the chocolate.Method 2 - the microwave. You can certainly melt your chocolate in the microwave, which I do on many occasions. If you decide to do this, take a microwave safe bowl, add your chocolate, and heat it on hi with bursts of 30 seconds, then stir, then 30 seconds, then stir, then go down to 20 seconds, and lastly bursts of 10 until it is completely melted. You do not want to over cook your chocolate.

Next we add our remaining 1/4 cup of peanut butter to the chocolate and stir until it melts.

Take some paper cups and line your muffin pan with them.

Now we add a little bit of chocolate to the bottom of each of the paper cups.

Now shake your chocolate gently so it flattens out on the bottom.

Next we will make a little medallion out of some peanut butter, again if the mixture is too sticky for this, go ahead and add a bit more powder sugar. Alternatively, you could put a ball of the peanut butter mixture in between two pieces of parchment paper and roll it out with a rolling pin. Place the peanut butter on top of the first layer of chocolate.

Showing what it looks like with the peanut butter on top of the first layer of chocolate.

Next we add the top layer of chocolate. The neat thing about these, is they are super simple, and you can make them as big or as small as you want. :)
