Killer Vegan Peanut Butter Cups
- 12 cupcake liners
- 34 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 12 cup natural-style peanut butter
- 2 tablespoons peanut butter
- 14 cup powdered sugar
- 12 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
- 1 pinch fine sea salt (if your PB is already salted, it's optional to add more)
- melt the chips in your microwave, keeping a close eye on them and stirring often to make sure they dont burn.
- it should take between 1-2 minutes.
- add the 2 generous T and stir to incorporate.
- give it about 5 minutes to cool down a bit, its easier to spread around when not lava-hot.
- place a heaping teaspoon of melted chocolate in each mini cupcake liner and spread it all over the place with the back of a spoon.
- repeat with all 12 liners.
- place the chocolate-covered liners onto a plate, into your fridge, to let it all harden.
- meanwhile, stir together peanut butter, vanilla, salt, and sugar.
- if your peanut butter is anything like mine, it should form a sort of paste that you can start kneading to make sure all gets incorporated really well.
- the chocolate should be hard by now, so divide peanut butter paste into all 12 liners, pressing down gently to make sure the paste goes everywhere.
- top with heaping teaspoon of chocolate melt it again if needed, spreading carefully so that none of the PB paste can be seen.
- chill in fridge for at least one hour, until ready to devour.
