Description

Ingredients

Scale

Main Chocolate Ingredients:

  • 10 ounces (283 grams) dark chocolate wafers
  • 10 ounces (283 grams) white chocolate wafers

Peanut Butter Ingredient:

  • 10 ounces (283 grams) peanut butter

Instructions

  1. Create a double boiler setup by placing a heatproof bowl over a pot of simmering water, carefully melting dark and white chocolate wafers until completely smooth and glossy.
  2. Remove chocolate from heat and gently fold in creamy peanut butter, stirring until the mixture is uniformly blended with a silky consistency.
  3. Arrange mini cupcake liners on a sturdy baking sheet, then delicately pipe the chocolate-peanut butter mixture into each cavity, ensuring even distribution.
  4. Transfer the filled molds to the freezer for 7-8 minutes, allowing the candies to solidify and develop a perfect firm texture.
  5. Once set, carefully remove the meltaways from the molds and transfer to an airtight container, storing in the refrigerator to maintain their crisp texture and prevent melting.

Notes

  • Select high-quality chocolate wafers for rich, smooth melting and superior taste.
  • Use creamy peanut butter at room temperature to ensure seamless blending without lumps.
  • Consider using silicone molds for easier removal and more decorative shapes than standard cupcake liners.
  • Avoid over-freezing to prevent hardening; aim for a soft, melt-in-your-mouth texture by monitoring freeze time carefully.
