Get your SWEET on - Chocolate Peanut Butter Cup recipe

Unfortunately - I cannot take credit for this recipe - as it was one of Martha Stewart.  But, this just was too pretty & delish to pass up and not post about.  Try it out and let me know what you think. :)

Enjoy! xoxo ~ Honey

Chocolate Peanut Butter Cups
(recipe courtesy of Martha Stewart)
You will need:
4 ounces white chocolate, chopped
1/2 cup smooth peanut butter ( my favorite to use is Natural Peanut Butter by Smucker’s)
12 ounces semisweet or bittersweet chocolate, chopped (I like to use dark chocolate)
2 tablespoons unsalted roasted peanuts, chopped
Directions:
Line two 12-cup mini muffin pans with paper liners; set aside.
In a microwave-safe bowl, combine white chocolate and peanut butter. Microwave, until almost melted, 1 to 1 1/2 minutes, stirring halfway through.
Set aside to cool slightly.

Meanwhile, place semisweet chocolate in another microwave-safe bowl.
Microwave, stirring once or twice, until almost melted, 2 to 3 minutes.
Dividing evenly, use a spoon to layer semisweet chocolate and peanut butter mixture into liners, beginning and ending with chocolate; sprinkle with peanuts.

Place muffin pans in freezer until peanut butter cups are firm, about 15 minutes.
Bring to room temperature before serving.
