PB & J CUPS

Categories     dessert

Time 1h15m

Yield 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 6

12 ounces bittersweet chocolate chips
3/4 cup smooth peanut butter
1/2 cup confectioners' sugar
Nonstick cooking spray
6 tablespoons strawberry jelly
Flaky sea salt, for garnish (optional)

Steps:

  • Line 8 cups in a 12-cup muffin tin with cupcake liners.
  • Melt the chocolate in a double boiler (set a heatproof bowl over a saucepan filled with a few inches of simmering water) over medium heat. Stir the chocolate occasionally, until melted, about 5 minutes. Once the chocolate is melted, turn the heat off.
  • Meanwhile, add the peanut butter and confectioners' sugar to a mixing bowl. Mix with a hand mixer until well combined. Set the peanut butter mixture aside.
  • Spoon 1 tablespoon of melted chocolate into each cupcake liner. Use a 1-tablespoon size cookie scoop to portion the peanut butter mixture on to your hand. If the mixture is too sticky, lightly spray your hands with nonstick cooking spray. Slightly flatten the peanut butter, but make sure to keep it smaller than the base of the muffin cup so that the chocolate can encase it. Place the peanut butter on top of the chocolate, slightly pressing to let the chocolate come slightly up the sides of the peanut butter. Repeat the process to fill all 12 muffin cups.
  • Next, use a 1/2-tablespoon size cookie scoop to scoop a portion of jelly on top of the peanut butter. To finish the cups, top the peanut butter and jelly with an additional tablespoon of melted chocolate. Use a spoon to spread the chocolate to completely cover the peanut butter and jelly. Sprinkle each cup with flake salt, if desired. Transfer the muffin tin to the fridge for 30 minutes, until completely set.
  • The PB & J cups can be stored in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 5 days or the freezer for up to 1 month.

Tips:

  • Use ripe bananas: Overripe bananas are sweeter and will yield a more flavorful muffin. If you don't have ripe bananas, you can ripen them quickly by placing them in a paper bag with an apple or pear for a few hours.
  • Don't overmix the batter: Overmixing the batter will result in tough muffins. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Fill the muffin cups evenly: This will ensure that all of the muffins bake evenly.
  • Bake the muffins until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean: Overbaking the muffins will dry them out.
  • Let the muffins cool before frosting: This will help the frosting to set properly.
