PB & J CUPS

Steps:

• Line 8 cups in a 12-cup muffin tin with cupcake liners.
• Melt the chocolate in a double boiler (set a heatproof bowl over a saucepan filled with a few inches of simmering water) over medium heat. Stir the chocolate occasionally, until melted, about 5 minutes. Once the chocolate is melted, turn the heat off.
• Meanwhile, add the peanut butter and confectioners' sugar to a mixing bowl. Mix with a hand mixer until well combined. Set the peanut butter mixture aside.
• Spoon 1 tablespoon of melted chocolate into each cupcake liner. Use a 1-tablespoon size cookie scoop to portion the peanut butter mixture on to your hand. If the mixture is too sticky, lightly spray your hands with nonstick cooking spray. Slightly flatten the peanut butter, but make sure to keep it smaller than the base of the muffin cup so that the chocolate can encase it. Place the peanut butter on top of the chocolate, slightly pressing to let the chocolate come slightly up the sides of the peanut butter. Repeat the process to fill all 12 muffin cups.
• Next, use a 1/2-tablespoon size cookie scoop to scoop a portion of jelly on top of the peanut butter. To finish the cups, top the peanut butter and jelly with an additional tablespoon of melted chocolate. Use a spoon to spread the chocolate to completely cover the peanut butter and jelly. Sprinkle each cup with flake salt, if desired. Transfer the muffin tin to the fridge for 30 minutes, until completely set.
• The PB & J cups can be stored in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 5 days or the freezer for up to 1 month.

Steps:

• Meanwhile, place semisweet chocolate in another microwave-safe bowl. Microwave, stirring once or twice, until almost melted, 2 to 3 minutes.
• Dividing evenly, use a spoon to layer semisweet chocolate and peanut-butter mixture into liners, beginning and ending with chocolate; sprinkle with peanuts. Place muffin pans in freezer until peanut butter cups are firm, about 15 minutes. Bring to room temperature before serving.

CHOCOLATE PEANUT BUTTER CUPS

Steps:

• Set 18 mini paper baking cups on a baking sheet. Melt 4 ounces of the chocolate either over a double boiler on the stove top or in short bursts in the microwave. Spoon 1 teaspoon of melted chocolate into each cup. Use an offset spatula or a small spoon to spread the chocolate slightly up the sides of each baking cup; make sure you have an even chocolate base at the bottom of each cup. Let cool at room temperature for about 15 to 20 minutes until mostly solid.
• Meanwhile, in a medium bowl, stir together peanut butter, confectioners' sugar, vanilla extract and salt. (Make sure the peanut butter is well-combined in the jar before you measure it.) Transfer the peanut butter mixture to a resealable plastic bag and seal it tightly.
• Cut one corner of the plastic bag and pipe 2 to 3 teaspoons of peanut butter mixture into the center of each cup. With a very lightly moistened finger, tamp down the peanut butter and make it flat and even, but leave a bit of space between the peanut butter and the edge of the paper cup (you should be able to see a ring of chocolate peeking from below the peanut butter).
• Melt the remaining 5 ounces of chocolate. Spoon 1 teaspoon of chocolate onto the top of each cup. Use an offset spatula or a small spoon to spread the chocolate evenly over the top and down the sides of the cup. Refrigerate until solid, about 30 minutes.
