Instructions

  1. Line a small rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper and a mini-muffin tin with paper liners. Set them aside.
  2. In a medium bowl, using a hand mixer, beat the peanut butter, powdered sugar, and vanilla together. Start on low speed and gradually increase the speed to medium-high. Beat until the mixture is smooth and well combined– about 1 minute.
  3. Add the chopped peanuts and fold them into the mixture.
  4. Scoop out 1 teaspoon-sized portions and roll them into balls. Place them on the parchment-lined baking sheet and press them down slightly to form a ¼-inch thick disc.
  5. Add the chocolate bark and dark chocolate chips to a medium-sized microwave-safe bowl. Heat in 30-second intervals, stirring after each interval, until the chocolate is completely melted. Transfer the chocolate to a piping bag or a Ziplock bag with the corner cut off.
  6. Pipe a small dollop of chocolate (about ½ teaspoon) into the bottom of one well on the mini-muffin pan. Place a disc of peanut butter on top of the chocolate and then pipe enough additional chocolate to cover the peanut butter completely. Repeat with the remaining peanut butter cups.
  7. Place the peanut butter cups in the fridge to set for 30 minutes.
  8. To serve, sprinkle with flakey sea salt and enjoy.
