Cooking Steps
1
- Line 8 muffin tin cups with paper liners.
- Add chocolate and 2 tsp oil to a medium microwave-safe bowl. Microwave in 20 sec increments, stirring after each, until chocolate is melted and smooth. (NOTE: This can also be done in a medium pot on the stovetop over medium-low heat, stirring continuously.)
2
- Using a small spoon, dollop 1 1/2 tsp melted chocolate into the base of each paper liner. (NOTE: Be sure to evenly coat the bottom and a third of the way up each cup).
- Place muffin tin in the freezer until chocolate hardens, 5-10 min.
- Meanwhile, add peanut butter to another medium microwave-safe bowl and microwave until melted and warmed through, 20 sec.
- Add icing sugar, 4 tbsp graham cracker crumbs and 1/8 tsp salt to the bowl with peanut butter. Stir until fully combined.
3
- When chocolate is hardened, remove the muffin tin from the fridge. Using the back of a spoon, press 1 tbsp peanut butter mixture onto each chocolate base and smooth until flat.
- Spoon remaining melted chocolate over top of peanut butter filling until completely covered.. (TIP: You can lightly tap or shake the muffin tin to even out the chocolate on top.)
- Sprinkle flaky salt over top.
- Return the muffin tin to the freezer until chocolate has set, 10-15 min.
4
- When chocolate has set, carefully remove paper liners from peanut butter cups and discard.
- Transfer peanut butter cups to a plate.
- Serve immediately or place in the fridge until ready to serve.

- Ease of prep: Reviewers generally found these easy to make, but some struggled with chocolate distribution and cup sizing.
- Suggestions: Consider using less sweet peanut butter, omitting the top salt, and chilling the peanut butter layer before adding the final chocolate.
- Portions: Some found the cups too rich or large; consider making smaller portions for a more balanced treat.
- Chocolate amount: Several noted there wasn't enough chocolate provided to fully coat both top and bottom of standard-sized cups.
