Ingredients

Directions

  1. 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.
  2. 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.
  3. Place whichever size cups in the refrigerator to harden.
  4. 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.
  5. Place cups into the refrigerator to harden the peanut butter, about 1 hour.
  6. Re-melt the remaining chocolate at 50% power for 30-60 seconds. Spread over the peanut butter mixture and chill until the chocolate hardens.
