Your favorite candy… homemade!

I don’t think I have met anyone who dislikes Reese’s Peanut Butter Cups! These peanut butter chocolate candies are classics and one of our favorite snacks for other desserts such as Reese brownies and peanut butter cup cookies.

Not long ago we decided to try these delicious candies at home, we couldn’t believe how easy they are (and how delicious they are!) We made milk chocolate and white chocolate versions.

The best part is that you can make these into any shape you like, or you can use heart-shaped muffin tins and linings to make traditional round cups or heart shapes! Either way, you can easily enjoy homemade Rees. 😉

Making Reese’s Cup

We love how simple these candies are!

melt. First, melt the butter and peanut butter in the microwave for 1 minute. Stir until combined.

Freeze + scroll. Add powdered sugar and vanilla. Stir well, then freeze for 15 minutes. Take a small ball of PB mixture, roll it into a ball, and then flatten it. Set aside.

Make. Melt the chocolate in a pot over low heat until smooth (stirring all the time). Pour 1-2 tablespoons of melted chocolate into the cupcake lining in the muffin tin. Add round, flattened peanut butter, then add 1-2 tablespoons of melted chocolate. Tap the counter lightly to help flatten the chocolate.

chill. Refrigerate for 10 minutes or until the chocolate is set.

What is the best way to melt chocolate? The microwave can be used in a pinch, but the best way to melt chocolate is to use a double oven. If you don’t have one, then you can easily assemble your own.

First, find a saucepan and pour 3 inches of water into it. Next, find a metal or heat-resistant glass bowl that can be placed on top of the pan without touching the water. Yes, bring the water to a boil, then reduce the heat. Finally, add the chocolate to the bowl and stir occasionally as it melts.

Change + save

Recipe changes? There are many interesting ways to replace these Reese cups. Here are some suggestions:

Use chunks of peanut butter
Use honey flavored peanut butter
Use almonds, nuts, or cashew butter instead of peanut butter
Add mini chocolate chips or chopped riss pieces to the peanut butter mixture
Change it with white chocolate, dark chocolate, milk or semi-sweet chocolate
After dipping into the chocolate, sprinkle some crushed peanuts or sprinkle with crushed peanuts on top

How to store peanut butter cups? Store-bought Reese’s peanut butter cups can be used for 6-9 months at room temperature. Our homemade cups will not last long. To be honest, they were eaten before I worried about long-term storage!

You can put your homemade peanut butter cups in an airtight container and store them in the refrigerator for 1 month or in the freezer for 3 months.

Sweets

We usually make these desserts to celebrate an event, but this is not always the case. Yes, we make them when guests come over for dinner or someone’s birthday, but more often just because we are looking for some delicious homemade candies.

Whether you make them with chocolate or white chocolate, we feel that you will fall in love with them!
