No Bake Crunchy Peanut Butter Cups

Prep Time30 mins
Fridge Time30 mins
Course: Dessert
Servings: 24 Peanut Butter Cups
Calories: 124kcal

Ingredients

  • cup creamy peanut butter
  • ¼ cup powdered sugar
  • 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
  • ¼ cup peanuts , very finely chopped
  • 8 ounces chocolate bark , chopped
  • 1 cup dark chocolate chips
  • Flakey sea salt , for garnish

Instructions

  • Line a small, rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper. Line the cups of a mini-muffin pan with muffin papers. Set aside.
  • In a medium bowl, beat the peanut butter, powdered sugar, and vanilla together. Start on low speed and gradually increase the speed to medium-high. Beat until the mixture is smooth and well combined– about 1 minute. Add the chopped peanuts and fold them into the mixture.
  • Scoop out 1 teaspoon sized portions and roll them into balls. Place them on the parchment lined baking sheet and press them down slightly to form ¼-inch thick discs.
  • Add the chocolate bark and dark chocolate chips to a medium sized microwave safe bowl. Heat in 30-second intervals, stirring after each interval, until the chocolate is completely melted.
  • Transfer the chocolate to a piping bag or a Ziploc bag with the corner cut off.
  • Pipe a small dollop of chocolate (about ½ teaspoon) into the bottom of one well on the mini-muffin pan. Place a disc of peanut butter on top of the chocolate and then pipe enough additional chocolate to cover the peanut butter completely. Repeat with the remaining peanut butter cups.
  • Place the peanut butter cups in the fridge to set for 30 minutes.
  • To serve, sprinkle with flakey sea salt and enjoy.

Notes

Store any leftover peanut butter cups in an airtight container in the fridge for up to five days.
