Pb And J Choc Tini Recipes

Steps:

• Line a plate or baking sheet with nonstick aluminum foil. Push an ice pop stick in the center of each piece of banana, but not all the way through to the end. Stir the jam to loosen, then brush it all over each banana. Place the bananas on the lined plate and freeze until solid, about 2 hours.
• Line another plate with nonstick aluminum foil. Pour the ice cream sauce in a coffee mug or small bowl. Remove the bananas from the freezer and quickly dip each in the ice cream sauce to completely coat. Before the shell forms, place the banana on the newly prepared plate and sprinkle each with one of the toppings. Freeze until solid, 5 to 10 minutes.

Steps:

• Line 8 cups in a 12-cup muffin tin with cupcake liners.
• Melt the chocolate in a double boiler (set a heatproof bowl over a saucepan filled with a few inches of simmering water) over medium heat. Stir the chocolate occasionally, until melted, about 5 minutes. Once the chocolate is melted, turn the heat off.
• Meanwhile, add the peanut butter and confectioners' sugar to a mixing bowl. Mix with a hand mixer until well combined. Set the peanut butter mixture aside.
• Spoon 1 tablespoon of melted chocolate into each cupcake liner. Use a 1-tablespoon size cookie scoop to portion the peanut butter mixture on to your hand. If the mixture is too sticky, lightly spray your hands with nonstick cooking spray. Slightly flatten the peanut butter, but make sure to keep it smaller than the base of the muffin cup so that the chocolate can encase it. Place the peanut butter on top of the chocolate, slightly pressing to let the chocolate come slightly up the sides of the peanut butter. Repeat the process to fill all 12 muffin cups.
• Next, use a 1/2-tablespoon size cookie scoop to scoop a portion of jelly on top of the peanut butter. To finish the cups, top the peanut butter and jelly with an additional tablespoon of melted chocolate. Use a spoon to spread the chocolate to completely cover the peanut butter and jelly. Sprinkle each cup with flake salt, if desired. Transfer the muffin tin to the fridge for 30 minutes, until completely set.
• The PB & J cups can be stored in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 5 days or the freezer for up to 1 month.

Steps:

• Make the base: Line an 8-inch square baking pan with foil, extending it over the sides. Put the butter in a medium heatproof bowl; position the bowl over a saucepan of barely simmering water (the bowl should not touch the water). Once the butter melts, stir in the sugar and cocoa. Whisk in the egg; cook, whisking, until the mixture is warm and the consistency of hot fudge, 6 minutes. Remove from the heat; mix in the saltine crumbs and peanuts. Press the crust into the pan. Set aside the saucepan of water.
• Make the filling: Spread the jelly over the crust in the pan; place in the freezer for a few minutes. Beat 5 tablespoons plus 1 teaspoon butter, the peanut butter and confectioners' sugar with a mixer until light. Spread over the jelly layer; return to the freezer while you make the glaze.
• Place the chocolate and the remaining 2 tablespoons butter in a heatproof bowl; set over the pan of simmering water and stir until the chocolate is melted. Remove from the heat; stir until smooth. When cool but still runny, spread the glaze over the chilled peanut butter layer. Freeze for another 30 minutes.
• Use the foil flaps to remove the bars from the pan; cut into squares while still cold. Serve cold and keep leftovers refrigerated.

Steps:

• Put the chopped peanuts on a small plate. Spread the flat side of each peanut butter cookie with jelly. Set the ice cream pints on their sides and use a serrated knife to slice right through the cartons, creating ice cream discs 1 to 2 inches thick. Place 1 disc (peel away the carton) on the jellied flat side of a cookie, then close the sandwich with another cookie, jelly side on the inside as well. Roll the exposed ice cream edge in the chopped peanuts. Repeat with the remaining ingredients. Serve immediately.
