Reese's Peanut Butter Cups Recipe

butter (softened)

vanilla

chocolate chips (or canyquick)

Melt butter and peanut butter in microwave for 1 minute. Stir until blended.

Add powdered sugar and vanilla. Mix well, then freeze for 15 minutes. Grab a small ball of PB mixture, roll into a ball and then flatten. Set aside.

Melt chocolate in a pot on low heat until smooth (stirring the entire time). Pour 1 - 2 tbsp of melted chocolate into a cupcake liner in a muffin tin. Add the rounded, flattened peanut butter and top with 1 - 2 more tbsp melted chocolate. Help flatten chocolate by lightly banging on counter.

Refrigerate 10 minutes or until your chocolate has set. Decorate with extra drizzled chocolate, sprinkles or any other toppings.

These homemade Chocolate Peanut Butter Christmas Trees are just like your favorite Reese’s Peanut Butter Cups disguised as a fun and festive Christmas dessert!

Chocolate Peanut Butter Christmas Trees

unsalted butter-melted

Tablespoons brown sugar

salt

chocolate chips chocolate

Line 8 x 8 inch dish with parchment paper, leaving the paper overhang the sides so you can easily lift it later and set aside.

Then in a mixing bowl stir together peanut butter, melted butter, brown sugar vanilla and salt, until sugar dissolve. Next, gradually mix in powdered sugar.

Press the mixture into prepared dish. Smooth the top with spatula or simply press it with your palms to flatten into about ½ inch thick layer.

Place it in the freezer until firm enough for cutting.

When the mixture is firm enough, line a tray with parchment paper and set aside.

Using Christmas tree cookie cutter cut out the trees and place them on the tray. Place them in the freezer for 45-60 minutes until completely firm.

Then melt the chocolate and line another tray with parchment paper.

Using a fork, dip each tree into melted chocolate to cover completely. Gently tap the fork to drip of the excess of chocolate. (Since the peanut butter mixture softens really fast at the room temperature, I suggest you to take just a few trees at the time from the freezer, because it’s easier to work with the firm trees!!!) Place chocolate covered Christmas trees on the parchment paper lined tray. Refrigerate until chocolate has set.

Store in the fridge or freeze for longer storage.

I made 18 Christmas trees, but the number depends on the size of your cookie cutter. Mine was about 1 ¾  x 2 ¼ inches. Don’t waste any batter, pick up leftovers, kneed, press with your palms and you will be able to cut out at least 2-3 more trees.
