Very simple to make as well.  Suggest you serve them chilled as they become soft fast…not that they will last very long!

Peanut Butter Cups
  • 1/2 cup butter
  • 3/4 cup peanut butter
  • 3/4 cup graham cracker crumbs
  • 1/4 cup sugar
  • 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
  • 1/4 cup milk (you can try flavored coffee creamer)
 Line a mini muffin tin with paper liners (this small size is available where cake decorating supplies are sold).

In a microwave safe bowl, melt the butter & peanut butter
together for 45 seconds.  Stir until smooth.  Add graham cracker crumbs
and sugar and mix to combine.  Distribute mixture evenly between the
prepared muffin cups.  Refrigerate for 15 minutes to set peanut butter
layer.

After the peanut butter has chilled, combine chocolate and milk in a
microwave safe bowl and heat in 25 second intervals until chocolate is
just melted.  Stir until smooth.  Distribute chocolate evenly over the
top of the peanut butter layer.  Chill until
firm, at least 30 minutes.  Store covered in the fridge.
