Ingredients
- 1 cup creamy peanut butter
- ⅓ cup powdered sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2 ½ cups chocolate melting wafers
Instructions
- Line a cupcake pan with cupcake liners and set aside.
- In a medium bowl, mix together peanut butter, sugar, and vanilla until smooth.
- Transfer the peanut butter mixture to a pastry bag or ziploc bag with a small section of the corner cut off.
- Melt the chocolate melting wafers in a medium microwave-safe bowl for 30-second intervals, stirring between each one, until fully melted.
- Add 2 teaspoons of melted chocolate to the bottom of each liner.
- Pipe the peanut butter mixture on top of the chocolate.
- Top the peanut butter with 1 tablespoon of melted chocolate.
- Place in the refrigerator for about 1 hour to set.
- Remove and enjoy.
Notes
- I love using Ghirardelli melting wafers, however, you can use chocolate chips instead. I find the melting wafers are a little softer after hardening and therefore a little easier to eat.
- Could also be made in a mini cupcake pan - I would recommend 1 teaspoon of chocolate on the bottom and 2 teaspoons on top.
- Store in the refrigerator in an air-tight container.
- Freeze in a freezer bag with excess air squeezed out for up to 6 months.
- Add sprinkles for parties and holidays.
