A semisweet chocolate shell encompasses a creamy mixture of peanut butter and honey in these over-the-top homemade Peanut Butter Cups.
How to Make It
Step 1
Line a 12-cup mini-muffin pan with small paper cups. Process crackers and salt in a food processor until ground. Transfer to a bowl; stir in peanut butter and honey. Chill for 10 minutes.
Step 2
Line a plate with plastic wrap. Divide peanut butter mixture into 12 1-Tbsp. balls. Flatten slightly. Place on plate; cover with plastic wrap and chill.
Step 3
Place chocolate in a bowl set over a pan of simmering water. Stir until chocolate is smooth. Remove from heat; let cool slightly.
Step 4
Spoon 1 tsp. chocolate into each cup. Spread over bottoms and halfway up sides of paper. Chill until hardened, about 30 minutes. (Keep remaining chocolate at room temperature.) Press a peanut butter disk into each shell.
Step 5
Spoon 1 Tbsp. chocolate over disk. Spread over top. Chill until firm, about 1 hour. Keep refrigerated until ready to serve.

Sorry, evening it out. Dogwoman, you can't just add a review to something you haven't made! And in reply to AngelicFool, what would I gain lashing out at an internet board? Frankly, I thought mature people browsed the site, then I saw your incredibly ridiculous comment, ironically lashing out at a board.

I agree with Rowand. What is "2 full sheets graham crackers"?? This needs clarification please.

I was a little confused about the "mini-muffin" pan since I own both 1-1/4 inch and 2-1/4 inch pans and call the smaller one mini and the larger one standard (since that's the size cupcake liners you find most commonly available). The 2-1/4 inch pan is what is meant here. I agree that a half milk chocolate adjustment that others suggested would improve the flavor, and I would put more chocolate on the bottom of the liner than I did (and I was possibly skimpy--I didn't measure) because the top was overly thick and the bottom overly fragile. Overall, a tasty and relatively simple recipe.

Can someone please tell me how much 2 sheets of graham crackers would be? I don't understand that "measurement." Thanks

I love peanutbutter so I had to try these cups. They are very good. Not very sweet so maybe next time I will try milk chocolate for half of them.
