Peanut Butter Awakening...

I hated peanut butter until yesterday.  YES I really hated the thick delicious salty sweet paste.  Now I love it....Bandie Wandie, it's your fault cause you asked me to make peanut butter cups.  Now I'm just gonna eat cottage cheese and peanut butter....arghhh.

Peanut Butter Cups


The Ingredients... 
The Recipe: (for 15 cups) 
1 cup milk chocolate cut up
1 tablespoon shortening
50 g butter 
50 g peanut butter
1/2 cup confectioner's sugar
1/4 cup graham cracker crumbs
mini muffin cups 
1)  Melt chocolate and shortening in a pan for about 4 min.
2) Using a paint brush coat inside the cups and put in fridge.  (Save some chocolate).
3) In a pan combine butter and peanut butter.  Let it melt for 4 min.
4) Add sugar and graham cracker crumbs.  Press into each cup.
5) Spoon melted chocolate on top of filling and freeze until firm.
