O.k., I'm trying not to eat as much processed sugar as last year but these are delish and I had to share. Enjoy~
Ingredients:
1 cup peanut butter (organic, creamy is always preferred. Plain old peanuts w/ no crap added)
1/2 cup powdered sugar
1 1/2 cups of vegan chocolate chips (check the back, lots have milkfat (a big no-no)
1/4 teaspoon salt
12 small cupcake liners (or 6-8 regular size)
Directions:
Cut the top half of the cupcake liners to where they are about half the original height. In a double boiler, melt the chocolate chips. Stir until creamy. Make sure you do not overcook them. Using a spoon to spread the chocolate evenly within the muffin cups (you'll get messy) making sure you fill the crevices on the sides. Place the coated muffin cups in the freezer so that the chocolate hardens. In a separate bowl combine the peanut butter and salt and fold in the powdered vegan sugar. When the chocolate cups, spoon the peanut butter into the chocolate cups leaving a little room for the top layer of chocolate. Allow the peanut butter to harden in the freezer, and then spoon the top layer of chocolate on (you may need to heat the choc. again). Place the cups in the freezer and wait an hour.
makes about 12 sm. peanut butter cups.
