HOMEMADE PEANUT BUTTER CUPS
I like using pretty mini muffin liners and topping these homemade peanut butter cups with colored sprinkles to coordinate with the holiday we're celebrating. People can't believe how simple it is to make this irresistible candy with gooey peanut butter centers. This is how to make homemade peanut butter cups. -LaVonne Hegland, St. Michael, Minnesota

HOMEMADE SUNFLOWER BUTTER CUPS
I really love candy bars. I grew up eating them and especially enjoyed all the various sizes and types I'd get in my trick-or-treat bags. I am not suggesting that we do away with the classics, especially peanut butter cups, but I do want to share a fun homemade version that can be a nice complement to the ones that come in perfect shapes in colorful wrappers. These are tasty, and obviously healthier. It's nice for kids (and adults) to know that they can make things themselves, and Halloween candy is a really big part of childhood memories. This is also a good nut-free option so kids (and adults) with nut allergies don't feel left out of the festivities. Use sunflower butter or cinnamon cookie butter for this recipe, and feel free to substitute white or milk chocolate for the dark chocolate, if preferred.

Steps:
- Make the chocolate layer: Gently melt the chocolate in a double boiler (a fitted bowl over a pot of simmering water), stirring the sides with a spatula so the chocolate does not stick or scorch on the edges.
- Spread 8 to 10 cupcake liners (or 12 to 16 small ones) on a baking sheet and spoon a thin layer of chocolate in the bottom of each, 1/4- to 1/2-inch thick. (This should use half of the melted chocolate. Keep the remaining chocolate warm over warm water.) Place the baking sheet in the freezer for at least 15 to 20 minutes and up to 4 hours to allow the chocolate to set up.
- Make the "butter" layer: Drain the excess oil off the top of the sunflower butter. Add the sunflower butter (or cinnamon cookie butter) to a medium bowl. Sift the confectioners' sugar (use 1/4 cup confectioners' sugar if using cookie butter, or 1/2 cup if using sunflower butter) over the top of the butter and fully combine using a rubber spatula. Roll the butter into tablespoon-sized balls for the large cups, or teaspoon-sized balls for the small cups. Flatten gently between your palms. Remove the baking sheet from the freezer and place the flattened butter patties on top of the chocolate, pressing down lightly. Tap the tray on the counter a few times to help flatten the layers. Refrigerate for at least 1 hour and up to 12 hours.
- Remove the baking sheet from the fridge, then gently press any uneven layers down and spoon the remaining melted chocolate over the butter layer on all of the candies. Refrigerate until it hardens, at least 1 hour and preferably up to 12 hours. Keep refrigerated and wrapped in plastic if serving the next day. (If using white chocolate, store finished treats in the freezer.)

I tried a peanut butter cup recipe already posted, but I didn't like the graham cracker addition. I feel that it made it too gritty. I found this posted on another site.

Steps:
- Heat the oven to 190C/170C fan/gas 5. Tip the butter, sugars and vanilla into a bowl and beat with an electric whisk until pale and fluffy. Beat in the egg. Add the flour, bicarb and a pinch of salt, and mix everything together with a spatula.
- Break off golf-ball-sized lumps of dough (about 65g each) and press into the holes of a 12-hole muffin tin, ensuring it comes up the sides - if you're using a deep muffin tin, the dough should come about halfway up the side of each hole. Bake for 15 mins until golden. The dough will sink as it bakes, so leave until cool enough to handle, then press it up the sides of the holes again. Leave to cool completely.
- Break the chocolate into a heatproof bowl and melt until smooth in the microwave in 20-second bursts, or set over a pan of barely simmering water ensuring the bowl doesn't touch the water. Remove the cookie cups from the tin (you may need a cutlery knife to help you do this). Spoon 1 tsp nut butter into the centre of each, then cover with the melted chocolate. Leave to cool until the chocolate sets, about 1 hr. Will keep in an airtight container for up to five days.

PEANUT BUTTER CUPS
Steps:
- To temper the chocolate: Chop the chocolate in to small pieces and place in a bowl over barely simmering water to melt. Bring the chocolate up to 113 degrees F. Turn off the heat, remove the bowl from the simmering water, and let cool, stirring until it reaches 82 to 86 degrees F. It will begin to set a little around the edges at this point. Return the bowl to the hot (now turned off) water for a few seconds at a time, until it reaches 88 to 91 degrees F. Do not let it go over 91 degrees or it will go out of temper.
- Pour melted milk chocolate in a candy mold with individual fluted cups to coat the insides. Pour the excess chocolate back into the bowl and let set or chill to set.
- Meanwhile, mix the peanut butter with the confectioners¿ sugar. Using a small spoon or pastry bag with a large plain tip fill each chocolate cup with the peanut butter filling leaving room for a chocolate seal and chill slightly.
- Using a paper cone or pastry bag filled with melted milk chocolate, fill in the surface of the cups to enclose the filling with chocolate. Let set, then turn out of the mold.
PEANUT BUTTER CUPS
Steps:
- In a small bowl, mix the peanut butter, salt and powdered sugar until firm. Slowly melt the chocolate chips in a double boiler over hot, not boiling, water. You may also melt them in a microwave oven set on high for 2 minutes, stirring halfway through the heating time. Grease the muffin tin cups and spoon some chocolate into each cup, filling halfway. With a spoon, draw the chocolate up the edges of each cup until all sides are coated. Cool in the refrigerator until firm. Spread about a teaspoon of peanut butter onto the chocolate in each cup, leaving room for the final chocolate layer. Pour some chocolate onto the top of each candy and spread it to the edges. Let sit at room temperature, or covered in the refrigerator. Turn out of the pan when firm.

PEANUT BUTTER CUPS
There are so many different versions of this wonderful combination. This is mine and I have used it for close to 20 years. This is DS favorite! The creamy peanut butter refers to a brand such as Jif or Skippy. I don't think a natural peanut butter will work as it is missing the oil Also, the margarine for the chocolate mixture is melted before adding to the chocolate chips. If water gets in the chocolate it well "seize".

Steps:
- With a pastry blender, cut the peanut butter, 1/2 cup margarine and powdered sugar together by hand DO NOT USE A MIXER OR IT WILL BE TO CREAMY; the mixture may need to be "kneaded by hand".
- Line a 13x9x2 inch pan with foil, spread the mixture with slightly buttered hands into prepared pan.
- In top of double boiler over boiling water, add 1 tablespoon melted margarine and 12 oz chocolate chips taking care not to get water into the mix.
- Stir constantly until melted, mixture will be glossy.
- Spread immediately over peanut butter mixture.
- Allow to cool and harden slightly, cut into squares.
- DH suggested using a pizza cutter to cut these into squares and it works great!
- After these are cut and the chocolate has set, I store these covered in a tupperware container.
