Ingredients
- 8 ounces of your chocolate of choice
- 3/4 cup whipping cream
- 1 tablespoon butter
- 1 cup Reese's miniature peanut butter cups
Instructions
- Chop up your 8 ounces of chocolate and place in a large glass measuring cup.
- In a medium pot, bring the whipping cream and butter to a boil, being careful not to scald it.
- Pour over the chocolate into the measuring cup, stirring rapidly until the chocolate is completely dissolved.
- Cool until just barely warm.
- Chop up half a cup of the mini peanut butter cups, then add to the mixture. This cup should melt right in.
- Cool the mixture in the fridge until you are confident that the next half cup of peanut butter goodness is not going to melt.
- Stir in the next half cup.
- Use on the bottom cake layer while the consistency is still easy to spread, then place the top layer on.
