Will
make 30-60 chocolates depending on size of mold. I use Aldi brand semi
sweet chocolate chips. They are very good and affordable. Quite easy to make and fun to give to friends.
| 1/2 cup peanut butter |
| 3/4 cup powdered sugar |
| 2 tablespoons brown sugar |
| 2 tablespoons softened butter or margarine |
| 24 ounces chocolate, chips or chopped (or more) |
Make peanut butter filling in small bowl with hand mixer. Prepare peanut butter filling inserts and set on wax paper. Melt and temper chocolate (I would only temper 10-12 oz at a time). Fill piping bag with tempered chocolate. Fill bottom of mold. Place peanut butter filling on top of chocolate and fill rest of mold with chocolate. Tap the mold to settle and smooth out the melted chocolate. Look underneath mold to make sure the peanut butter filling is not showing but completely covered with chocolate. Place molds in fridge until hardened (doesn't take more than 30-60 minutes). Pop out of mold and store in airtight container in fridge.
