REESE'S® PEANUT BUTTER CUP CUPCAKES
These are moist peanut butter cupcakes with mini peanut butter cups in them, topped with melted milk chocolate and chopped peanuts. I was looking for a chocolate-peanut butter cupcake recipe that wasn't too high in calories, but were still a decent size and delicious. I couldn't seem to find what I was looking for so decided to create my own! These were a hit with all my family and friends! Hope you all enjoy. Yum yum yum!

REESE'S PEANUT BUTTER CUPS
Steps:
- In a small bowl, mix the peanut butter, salt and powdered sugar until firm. Slowly melt the chocolate chips in a double boiler over hot, not boiling, water. You may also melt them in a microwave oven set on high for 2 minutes, stirring halfway through the heating time. Grease the muffin tin cups and spoon some chocolate into each cup, filling halfway. With a spoon, draw the chocolate up the edges of each cup until all sides are coated. Cool in the refrigerator until firm. Spread some of the peanut butter onto the chocolate in each cup, leaving room for the final chocolate layer. Cool the cups again to firm up the peanut butter. Pour some chocolate onto the top of each candy and spread it to the edges. Let sit at room temperature, or covered in the refrigerator. Turn out of the pan when firm.
REESE'S PEANUT BUTTER CUPS (COPYCAT)
This recipe is from Todd Wilbur's "Top Secret Recipes" (www.TopSecretRecipes.com). In heaven there must be a special place for those of us who love peanut butter & chocolate. This recipe has no added butter like many other copycat recipes. You will need a muffin tin, preferably with shallow cups, but the regular size will work if filled only halfway. Times are a guess-timate and do not include cooling and firming time.

Steps:
- In a small bowl, mix the salt, peanut butter and powdered sugar until firm.
- Melt the chocolate chips in a double boiler over hot, not boiling water (OR you can melt them in the microwave for about two minutes, stirring midway).
- Grease muffin-tin cups and spoon some chocolate into each, filling halfway.
- With the back of a spoon, draw the chocolate up the edges of each cup until all sides are coated.
- Cool in the refrigerator until firm.

- Pour some chocolate (I imagine you will need to re-heat it) onto the top of each candy and spread it to the edges.
- Let sit at room temperature or covered in the refrigerator.
- Turn out of pan when firm.

TASTES LIKE REESE'S® CHOCOLATE-FILLED PEANUT BUTTER CUPCAKES
My sister and her friends were over when I made these imitation Reese's® peanut butter cup cupcakes, and they disappeared! Recipe is borrowed from the Jell-O® website, but I didn't want to make the cakes peanut butter and jelly, so I went for peanut butter and chocolate instead.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Line two 12-cup muffin pans with paper liners.
- Combine cake mix, cold water, peanut butter, pudding mix, and eggs in a large bowl; beat with an electric mixer until smooth. Spoon into the prepared muffin cups.
- Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted in the centers comes out clean, 18 to 21 minutes. Cool in the pans for 5 minutes. Transfer to a wire rack and let cool completely, about 25 more minutes.
- When the cupcakes are almost fully cooled, stir confectioners' sugar and milk together in a bowl. Add cocoa and cornstarch and stir until desired consistency; eyeballing it works well for icing.

REESE'S PEANUT BUTTER CUP FILLING
Homemade recipe for the inside of Reese's cup, so you can make you own at home! [which are so much tastier!] I'd recommend using bitter sweet or milk chocolate, and using a peanut butter cup mold, which you can buy pretty cheaply at Joann's or other craft/kitchen supply stores. And if you don't have powdered sugar, you can blend regular white sugar in a coffee grinder
