Ingredients
  

  • 1/2 cup creamy peanut butter
  • 3 tablespoons unsalted butter room temperature
  • 1/4 cup powdered sugar
  • 1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 pinch kosher salt
  • 2 1/2 cups milk chocolate chips plus more if needed

Instructions
 

  • Line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners.
  • In a bowl, combine the peanut butter, butter, powdered sugar, vanilla, and salt. Mix until the blend is smooth.
  • Place the chocolate chips in a microwave-safe bowl. Microwave in 20-second bursts, stirring between bursts, until the chocolate is melted and smooth.
  • Spoon about 1 tablespoon of melted chocolate into the bottom of each liner. Top with 2 teaspoons of the peanut butter mixture.
  • Cover with another tablespoon or so of melted chocolate. Gently tap the tin to level the chocolate, then refrigerate for 1 hour until set.
