Ingredients
- 2 (12 oz) packages milk chocolate chips
- 1 cup powdered sugar
- Salt
- 2 cups Reese's creamy peanut butter
Directions
- In the microwave, melt the chips in a medium sized bowl at 50% power for 2 minutes. Stir gently and let sit a minute or so. If the chips need more melting, continue at 30-second intervals. Do not overcook.
- For 1 giant cup: spread half of the chocolate onto the bottom and sides of a 9-inch quiche pan. For small cups: fill paper-lined muffin tins half full (building up the sides slightly), about 24 cups.
- Place whichever size cups in the refrigerator to harden.
- Combine the peanut butter, powdered sugar, and salt and mix well. Microwave for 1 minute on full power. Stir, then pour into the quiche pan or spoon into the muffin cups, leaving room at the top for the final chocolate layer.
- Place cups into the refrigerator to harden the peanut butter, about 1 hour.
- Re-melt the remaining chocolate at 50% power for 30-60 seconds. Spread over the peanut butter mixture and chill until the chocolate hardens.
