Original recipe makes 1 Servings

12 ouncesBittersweet Chocolate; (60%-70% cocoa)

1/3 cupCreamy Peanut Butter

1/4 cupConfectioners Sugar

1/4 cupCrushed Graham Crackers

Dark Chocolate Peanut Butter Cups Preparation

1. In a bowl, mix together the peanut butter, confectioners’ sugar and graham crackers. set aside

2. In a double boiler, carefully melt the chocolate (set a metal bowl on top of a saucepan with boiling water). alternatively, you can microwave the chocolate in short bursts

3. Using a pastry brush or a clean paintbrush, brush the melted chocolate on the bottom and sides of mini cupcake liners. it’s helpful to stack some the liners together to give more support. when in doubt, add more chocolate, since this will be the base for your candy. place the cupcake liners on a plate or in a cupcake tin and place in the freezer for 10 minutes.

4. Remove the liners from the freezer, and place about one teaspoon of the peanut butter mixture in each cup. press down a bit with a spoon to spread. spoon more melted chocolate on top of each cup.

5. Place the peanut butter cups back in the freezer for another 15 minutes to set. eat cold or let warm to room temperature before serving.
