Yield: 16 peanut butter cups
Ingredients: 1/3 cup creamy peanut butter; 2 tablespoons salted butter, at room temperature; 2/3 cup powdered sugar; 1/4 cup finely chopped peanuts; 1 teaspoon vanilla extract or vanilla bean paste; Pinch kosher salt; One 4-ounce bar white chocolate, chopped; One 4-ounce bar 70% dark chocolate, chopped; Flaky sea salt, for sprinkling

Directions

Special equipment:

16 muffin liners

Line a sheet pan with 16 muffin liners and a second sheet pan with parchment paper. Set aside.
Add the peanut butter and butter to a medium bowl. With a hand mixer, beat until smooth, about 1 minute. Add the powdered sugar, peanuts, vanilla and salt and slowly mix until everything is thoroughly combined. Take a mounded teaspoon of the mixture and form into a small disc that will fit into the muffin liners, then place on the parchment-lined sheet pan. Set aside and repeat with the remaining mix, making 16 discs in total.
Melt the white chocolate over a double boiler until smooth. Add 2 teaspoons to the bottom of each muffin liner. Gently press a disc of peanut butter into the center of each, allowing the white chocolate to come slightly up the sides of the discs.
Melt the dark chocolate over the double boiler. Add 2 teaspoons to the top of each peanut butter cup to cover. Sprinkle the top of each with sea salt and chill for 1 hour to set.
Enjoy or store in an airtight container in the fridge.
