Reeses Peanut Butter Cup Bars Recipes

PEANUT BUTTER CUP PEANUT BUTTER BARS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350F. Line an 8-by-8-inch baking pan with aluminum foil, spray with cooking spray; set aside.
• To a large, microwave-safe bowl add the butter and heat on high power to melt, about 1 minute.
• Wait momentarily before adding the egg so you don't scramble it. Add the peanut butter, egg, brown sugar, vanilla, and whisk until smooth.
• Add the flour and stir until just combined, don't overmix.
• Add 1/2 cup chocolate chips and stir to combine.
• Turn batter out into prepared pan, smoothing the top lightly with a spatula.
• Evenly distribute the peanut butter cups over the surface of the batter, pushing each cup down as far as it will go.
• Evenly sprinkle the surface with additional chocolate chips, about 1 tablespoon.
• Bake for about 22 to 25 minutes, or until done. If you can find a chocolate chip-free patch to test, a toothpick inserted in the center should come out clean, or with a few moist crumbs, but no batter.
• Allow bars to cool in pan for at least 1 hour before slicing and serving.

REESE'S PEANUT BUTTER CUP BARS

Steps:

• Mix butter, graham cracker crumbs, powdered sugar, and peanut butter. (an easy way to measure the peanut butter is to put 1 cup of water into a measuring cup, and then add enough peanut butter to it that the water reaches 2 cups).
• Press mixture into a 9x13" pan.
• Melt chocolate chips in microwave and stir until smooth (try a minute first, and then check).
• Spread chocolate carefully over peanut butter layer with a spatula. (Having one person to pour the chocolate and one to spread works well!).
• Let the chocolate cool for a while, and then cut into bars before the chocolate is completely hardened (or else the chocolate layer will just crack).
• (cooking time is cooling time, and it's a very rough estimate, I didn't keep track).

REESE'S PEANUT BUTTER CUPS

Steps:

• In a small bowl, mix the peanut butter, salt and powdered sugar until firm. Slowly melt the chocolate chips in a double boiler over hot, not boiling, water. You may also melt them in a microwave oven set on high for 2 minutes, stirring halfway through the heating time. Grease the muffin tin cups and spoon some chocolate into each cup, filling halfway. With a spoon, draw the chocolate up the edges of each cup until all sides are coated. Cool in the refrigerator until firm. Spread some of the peanut butter onto the chocolate in each cup, leaving room for the final chocolate layer. Cool the cups again to firm up the peanut butter. Pour some chocolate onto the top of each candy and spread it to the edges. Let sit at room temperature, or covered in the refrigerator. Turn out of the pan when firm.
