Homemade Peanut Butter Cups image

I like using pretty mini muffin liners and topping these homemade peanut butter cups with colored sprinkles to coordinate with the holiday we're celebrating. People can't believe how simple it is to make this irresistible candy with gooey peanut butter centers. This is how to make homemade peanut butter cups. -LaVonne Hegland, St. Michael, Minnesota

These were a complete disaster. The chocolate coating was too thick and the peanut butter filling was too runny. I ended up throwing the whole batch away.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my peanut butter cups turned out really dry. Maybe I didn't use enough peanut butter?

These were a lot of work, but they were worth it. They're the best peanut butter cups I've ever had.

I had a little trouble getting the chocolate coating to set properly, but other than that these were great.

These were a little too sweet for my taste, but my kids loved them.

I'm not a huge fan of peanut butter, but these cups were still really good. The chocolate coating was perfect and the peanut butter filling was surprisingly light and fluffy.

I was really impressed with how easy these were to make. I'm not a very experienced baker, but I was able to follow the instructions easily and the cups turned out great. They were also a big hit with my family and friends.

These were so good! I used dark chocolate for the coating and it was the perfect complement to the peanut butter filling. I also added a little bit of sea salt to the tops of the cups before they set and it really took them to the next level.

I've made these peanut butter cups several times now and they are always a crowd-pleaser. They're the perfect balance of sweet and salty, and the peanut butter filling is so creamy and delicious. I love that they're also relatively easy to make.
