I just made these for my hubby for Valentine's Day but I didn't have mini cupcake liners so I made BIG ones. I used dark chocolate chips instead of milk choc. and they were very easy and very good. Not as pretty as Tabi's cupcakes, but for those a little less creative or ambitious, this is perfect :)
The first picture is from the internet, the second is what mine looked like, and the third is Eli, taste-testing for me.
1 cup creamy peanut butter, divided
4-1/2 teaspoons butter, softened
1/2 cup confectioners' sugar
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 cups (12 ounces) semisweet chocolate chips
4 milk chocolate candy bars (1.55 ounces each), coarsely chopped
Colored sprinkles, optional
In a small bowl, combine 1/2 cup peanut butter, butter, confectioners' sugar and
salt until smooth; set aside. In a small microwave-safe bowl, melt the
chocolate chips, candy bars and remaining peanut butter; stir until smooth.
Drop teaspoonfuls of chocolate mixture into paper-lined miniature muffin cups.
Top each with a scant teaspoonful (mine were not very scant) of peanut butter mixture; top with another teaspoonful of chocolate mixture. Decorate with sprinkles if desired. Refrigerate
until set. Store in an airtight container.
ALSO: I made homemade massage oil for my hubby for Valentine's Day. It turned out great. It's not food, but if you want the "recipe," just let me know. It was EASY!

There's nothing better than chocolate and peanut butter. :o)
Mmm mmm good!! I will definitely make these sometime!
I'd love to know how you made the massage oil. The only massage oils I have are girly scents...
These look amazing too! And I'd love to hear your recipe for massage oil as well--sounds like some good family fun. : )
After seeing everyone's posts for the V-day treats they made for their men, I'm starting to feel bad for my poor man. I haven't been able to spoil him much these days. But now when I have some time, looks like he'll have his pick of great desserts.
