PEANUT BUTTER CUPS

Steps:

• To temper the chocolate: Chop the chocolate in to small pieces and place in a bowl over barely simmering water to melt. Bring the chocolate up to 113 degrees F. Turn off the heat, remove the bowl from the simmering water, and let cool, stirring until it reaches 82 to 86 degrees F. It will begin to set a little around the edges at this point. Return the bowl to the hot (now turned off) water for a few seconds at a time, until it reaches 88 to 91 degrees F. Do not let it go over 91 degrees or it will go out of temper.
• Pour melted milk chocolate in a candy mold with individual fluted cups to coat the insides. Pour the excess chocolate back into the bowl and let set or chill to set.
• Meanwhile, mix the peanut butter with the confectioners¿ sugar. Using a small spoon or pastry bag with a large plain tip fill each chocolate cup with the peanut butter filling leaving room for a chocolate seal and chill slightly.
• Using a paper cone or pastry bag filled with melted milk chocolate, fill in the surface of the cups to enclose the filling with chocolate. Let set, then turn out of the mold.

PEANUT BUTTER CUP BROWNIE BITES

Steps:

• 1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Spray 40 mini muffin cups
• 2. Prepare boxed brownie mix as directed. Spoon batter evenly into muffin cups (about 1 heaping teaspoon). Bake for 13-15 minutes or until top is set and a toothpick inserted into center comes out slightly wet. After brownies are out of the oven, wait for centers to fall. This will happen upon cooling. This did not happen for me, so I used my index finger and poked a hole in the center. I went slightly deep so I could put more peanut butter in the middle. I took them out of the muffin tin and placed them on my work surface because I found this way easier to assemble them instead of still in the muffin tin, but its your preferance.
• 3. Place peanut butter in a small microwave-safe bowl. Microwave on high for 45 seconds then stir. While brownies are still warm spoon about half a teaspoon of peanut butter into the center of each brownie.(I did not measure this because I did slightly deeper hole, so you made need more peanut butter) Top with chocolate chips* and peanut butter chips*. Cool completely in pan. *I just used 3 each of both chips, they fit perfectly.
• 4. You should wait to eat these when the peanut butter is cooled and set. Warning, these are very addicting..please enjoy
