Instructions:

Melt Chocolate: Begin by melting 1/3 of the peanut butter along with the chocolate chips. You can do this by placing them in a heatproof bowl and melting them together over a pot of simmering water. Stir until smooth and well combined.
-
Prepare Peanut Butter Mixture: While the chocolate mixture is melting, melt the remaining peanut butter in a separate glass cup placed in a pan of boiling water. Stir until smooth and creamy.
-
Line Muffin Tin: Line a muffin tin with paper liners. This will make it easier to remove the Reese’s Butter Cups once they are set.
-
Layer Chocolate Mixture: Spoon about 1 tablespoon of the melted chocolate mixture into each muffin liner. Spread it out evenly to form the bottom layer of the Reese’s Butter Cups. Allow it to set slightly.
-
Add Peanut Butter: Once the chocolate layer has set a bit, spoon about 1 tablespoon of the melted peanut butter mixture on top of each chocolate layer. Spread it out carefully to cover the chocolate layer completely.
-
Final Chocolate Layer: Top the peanut butter layer with another tablespoon of the melted chocolate mixture. Smooth it out to cover the peanut butter layer entirely.
-
Let Cool: Allow the Reese’s Butter Cups to cool completely at room temperature until the chocolate has set. You can also place them in the refrigerator for faster setting.
-
Enjoy: Once set, remove the Reese’s Butter Cups from the muffin tin and enjoy these delightful homemade treats!
