Homemade Peanut Butter Cups, 2 Ingredients
Tags: 2 ingredients, chocolate, dessert, peanut butter, peanut butter cups
Sometimes you just feel like making your own peanut butter cups right? Well, a few Sundays ago I sure did. I pulled out some bloc chocolate I’ve had in my pantry, melted it, spooned it into these perfect little paper cups (2 3/4 inch round) I found at Michaels, poured in some softened peanut butter, more chocolate on top, then let them harden. Boy were they worth the wait. Fabulous my friends.
This is a no brainer treat, but I wanted to share anyway, perfect for a Sunday…..or any day treat

2 cups chopped chocolate, semi-sweet
1 cup smooth peanut butter, melted in microwave to soften
1. Place chocolate into a microwave safe bowl and heat in 30 second intervals until melted and smooth. Spoon about 2 tablespoons of chocolate into each 2 3/4 inch round paper liner spreading to the edges. Spoon about 1 tablespoon slightly melted peanut butter over chocolate, carefully spreading to edges. Spoon another 2 tablespoons of melted chocolate over peanut butter, spreading gently to edges. Let harden completely.
2. Remove from paper liner and enjoy Note: I found the round paper liners at Michaels in the cake decorating section.
Makes 8 to 10 peanut butter cups

Yum!
Delicious! What an easy treat!
Mmmm my heaven. Love this!
Those look great, and so easy to throw together!
Unbelievable.
This is the Holy Grail of all pb/choc recipes!
I love making homemad PB cups too. I add a tablespoon of nutritional yeast to the peanut butter b/c it gives them sort of that Reese’s PB taste…slightly salty with just a touch of grit/texture. But not an essential item because obviously your PB cups look amazing as is!
Hope you’re having a great weekend, Jenny
I saw an IG pic that you won something red. Enjoy it!!! 
A 2-ingredient dessert and it’s not even fruit…what a winner! Thanks!

OH YEAH! You got me craving these and I’m afraid I need to make them asap!:)
My 3 favorite things – chocolate, peanut butter and easy!!!
Simple recipes are my favorite.
I love peanut butter cups! Who knew they were so easy to make.
Genius! This is dangerous.
Incredibly easy yet yummy and healthy sweet snack! PB-chocolate is my favorite combo. But I’m wondering, as you bite into the hardened chocolate, don’t you squeeze the soft PB out of the sandwich? :p
Love this simple idea! The photo is terrific…and makes me want a peanut butter cup right now!

Sometimes you just need a chocolate peanut butter fix. No good can come from me thinking I can make my own peanut butter cups. No good, I tell ya’! Those look delicious!
