my dad loves reese's peanut butter cups. i send him emails whenever i spot a new variety, and he sends me back a review (there are more types of reese's than you might think. i believe his favorites are original and peanut butter lovers'). so when rita and i spotted averie's homemade pb cups, we knew we had to make some for our dad's christmas present.they were delicious! my dad kept asking how we made them and said they were "even better than reese's". high praise indeed.
they're also super easy. just melt some chocolate chips (use a microwave or a double boiler). spread some of the chocolate on the bottom and sides of paper muffin liners. let harden for about 10 minutes, then add a small spoonful of peanut butter to each cup. top with more chocolate (we added sprinkles too, because sprinkles make everything better. it's a fact), then freeze until hardened. (averie has better instructions than we do...with pictures too! click the link above. also, we used semi sweet chocolate chips and natural crunchy peanut butter).

How can anything be bad with homemade peanut butter cups around?!
Happy New Year, Lola!
Oh Wow! These look so yummy! What a great idea! My family loves reese's too, thanks for the link to the recipe.
Happy New Year to both of you too!
I keep seeing these and I LOVE chocolate peanut butter cups - I guess I might need to give them a whirl!
LOLOL! I did the same thing for Xmas... made PBcups instead of cookies... and my mama said the same thing as your daddy... better than Reese's. Cos they are! Thanks, Averie!
