You would think after Christmas I would be done with sweets, but actually I can’t stop making them. I don’t even really like sweets.
Ok.
That was a big fat lie.
I love them.
I found these peanut butter cups on Pinterest and decided they would make a fun Valentine’s treat. The recipe I used was from Design Sponge. The only thing I did differently was make them ‘mini’ peanut butter cups instead muffin sized. Trust me they are rich enough as mini ones!
They are very easy. Line a mini muffin pan with paper liners.
Then find a sister to help you coat the sides and bottom of the melted chocolate. This my other cute sister, Laura. She and I are the ones that don’t sew like our other sister Em and our momma. She is the sister that eats healthy and works out all the time. I know her weak points though and these nuggets of heaven are one of them.
Once the liners are coated with chocolate put them in the fridge for 20 minutes. In a mixing bowl, combine the peanut butter, crushed graham crackers, powdered sugar and salt. Stir with a spoon until well combined. Then divide the peanut-butter mixture into 24 even amounts. (I used a small pampered chef scooper and measured them all out on a cutting board to make sure I had them evenly divided.) Put one mound into each paper liner. Tap down each mound with your fingertips to “nest” it into the chocolate bottom.
Using a spoon, dollop the top of each peanut butter mixture mound with a generous portion of the melted chocolate. Use the back of a teaspoon to smooth out the tops. Clearly mine are not perfect. But does it matter? :) Place the muffin pan in the refrigerator.
Your cups should be done within an hour.
Not sure my sis and I waited that long. Let’s pretend we did.
They are so good. My husband couldn’t stop eating them either.
I created these cute tags if you choose to give them out. Wrap a couple of mini cups in cellophane, tie it with a ribbon and add the tag.
*Side note: The paper liners clung to the chocolate so that you couldn’t really see the cute paper. My smart sis told me to just put a new one under it. I put a little tape on the bottom and stuck it on. You really only need to do this if you plan to dress them up all cute like this. Otherwise devour with gusto-who cares about the cuteness.

Recipe:
Chocolate Peanut Butter Cups (Original Recipe Found Here)
Yields 24 mini cups (Or 12 muffin cups like she does here)
Ingredients
- 3 cups chocolate (I used semi-sweet chocolate chips but use whatever!)
- 1 cup peanut butter
- 1/2 cup powdered sugar, sifted
- 1/4 cup graham crackers, crushed
- 1 teaspoon sea salt
1. Line a muffin pan with 24 mini paper liners. Set aside.
2. Melt 1 1/2 cups of the chocolate in a double boiler or do like I did and use the microwave, melting the chocolate in short bursts (30 seconds at a time.
3. Using the back of a spoon or a pastry brush, paint a layer of melted chocolate onto the bottoms and sides of the paper liners. Don’t skimp on chocolate here; coat the liners generously. Set the bowl aside with any remaining melted chocolate left in it.
4. Put the muffin pan in the refrigerator for 20 minutes while you make the peanut-butter filling.
5. In a mixing bowl, combine the peanut butter, crushed graham crackers, powdered sugar and salt. Stir with a spoon until well combined.
6. Add the remaining 1 1/2 cups of chocolate and melt in microwave. Or if using the double boiler return the bowl used to melt the chocolate to the top of the double boiler. Turn the heat to medium-high.
7. Meanwhile, divide peanut-butter mixture into 24 even amounts. (I used a small pampered chef scooper and measured them all out on a cutting board to make sure I had them evenly divided.)
8. Remove the muffin pan from the refrigerator. Put one mound into each paper liner. Tap down each mound with your fingertips to “nest” it into the chocolate bottom.
9. Using a spoon, dollop the top of each peanut butter mixture mound with a generous portion of the melted chocolate.
10. Use the back of a teaspoon to smooth out the tops (alternately, use the spoon to make a swirl atop each cup).
11. Place the muffin pan in the refrigerator. Within one hour, your cups should be set, depending how cold your fridge runs.

Some really nice and utilitarian info on this web site , also I think the pattern contains fantastic features.
Based on my observation, after a foreclosed home is offered at an auction, it is common for that borrower to be able to still have some sort ofthat remaining unpaid debt on the personal loan. There are many lenders who seek to have all fees and liens paid off by the following buyer. Even so, depending on specific programs, legislation, and state laws there may be quite a few loans that are not easily handled through the exchange of lending products. Therefore, the responsibility still falls on the consumer that has obtained his or her property foreclosed on. Thank you sharing your thinking on this web site.

The Government is operating so far outside of its design parameters that this type of discussion is now futile. In my opinion the place to begin is reducing income tax which would force massive reductions in power and programs, bringing the govt. more in line with the founders structure. Only then can a discussion vis-a-vis federal and state govts. become worthwhile.

Hands down, Apple’s app store wins by a mile. It’s a huge selection of all sorts of apps vs a rather sad selection of a handful for Zune. Microsoft has plans, especially in the realm of games, but I’m not sure I’d want to bet on the future if this aspect is important to you. The iPod is a much better choice in that case.
