Ingredients
  

1 cup creamy peanut butter (natural is best)

1 cup semisweet chocolate chips

1/4 cup powdered sugar

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Paper cupcake liners

Instructions
 

Prepare the Cupcake Liners: Place paper cupcake liners in a muffin tin. This will make it easy to remove the cups once they’re set.

    Make the Peanut Butter Filling: In a mixing bowl, combine the creamy peanut butter, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract. Stir until the mixture is smooth and well-combined. If you prefer a sweeter filling, adjust the powdered sugar to your taste.

      Melt the Chocolate: In a microwave-safe bowl, add the semisweet chocolate chips. Microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring between each, until the chocolate is completely melted and smooth. Be careful not to overheat.

        Assemble the Cups: Spoon about a tablespoon of melted chocolate into the bottom of each cupcake liner, spreading it out gently to create an even layer. Next, add a heaping tablespoon of the peanut butter mixture on top of the chocolate layer. Finally, cover the peanut butter with another tablespoon of melted chocolate, making sure to seal in the filling.

          Chill to Set: Place the muffin tin in the refrigerator for about 30 minutes or until the chocolate is firm. Once set, gently peel away the paper liners from the chocolate peanut butter cups.

            Serve and Enjoy: Enjoy your delicious homemade chocolate peanut butter cups! Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to a week.
