Reeses Peanut Butter Cup Cake Pops Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Spray the pan that you plan to use with nonstick spray (see box for pan size).
• Mix cake ingredients as per directions on the box plus the 1/4 cup of the extra water.
• Add in the peanut butter cup chunks.
• Bake at 350 degrees for 45-50 minutes. Cool.
• Blend icing ingredients together and spread on cake.
• Sprinkle Reese's Pieces on top.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°F.
• Combine water and oats and mix well.
• Cool to room temperature.
• Cream butter, brown sugar, sugar and vanilla.
• Beat in eggs and oatmeal mixture.
• Sift together dry ingredients and add gradually to creamed mixture, beating one minute.
• Pour batter into a greased and floured 9x13-inch pan.
• Crumble peanut butter cups and sprinkle on top, making a thicker layer around the edges.
• Bake for 40 to 45 minutes or until center tests done.
• Cool completely and frost.

Steps:

• Combine everything but the chocolate chips, and press in a greased 8x8" pan.
• Spread melted chocolate chips over top with a spatula, covering entire surface. Chill 2 hours.

Steps:

• You can either make your own vanilla or devil's food cake from scratch or if time is short you can make a store bought mix. Follow box directions and add 1/2-3/4 of a cup of creamy peanut butter. You can add more or less depending on how strong you like it. Allow to cool completely.
• Once cooled, crumble the cake with a fork into small pieces. Melt 3 regular size or 6 small Reese's peanut butter cups in the microwave in 30 second increments. Do not substitute any other type of peanut butter cup. The flavor will not be the same!
• Add the slightly cooled peanut butter cups to 3/4 of a cup of your own home made cream cheese frosting and gently incorporate into the cake crumbs. Mix with a spoon until frosting is completely combined with cake. You can use 3/4 of a cup of store bought cream cheese frosting. Either will work.
• Roll mixture into half dollar size balls and place on wax paper covered cookie sheet. (Should make 20-24).
• Place them in the freezer for a little while to firm up (at least a few hours). Ideally you will want to plan ahead and leave them in the freezer overnight. They are so much easier to deal with then.
• Before you take the cake pops out of the freezer, melt chocolate (you will need 2 packages for this many cake pops) in the microwave per directions on package. (30 sec intervals, stirring in between). I like to use the dark chocolate, but you can also use the peanut butter flavored melts. Merckens makes the best, but Wilton's will work too. You can buy them online at:http://www.streichs.com/Chocolates/Merckens-Candy-Melts-1lb.html
• Once you are ready to begin,remove cake pops from freezer. Dip the tip of your lollipop stick in a little of the melted candy coating and insert into the cake balls. (Insert about half way.)
• Once firm, carefully insert the cake ball into the candy coating by holding the lollipop stick and (using a spoon) pour the melted chocolate over the cake pop until covered. Coat them twice and make sure to make a complete seal around the entire cake pop. Especially the base when the stick was inserted. Once covered, rotate until the excess chocolate falls off. Don't tap too hard or the cake ball will fall off as well!
• When the chocolate is almost set, sprinkle the top half of the cake pop with ground up butter finger candy bars, finely chopped peanut butter cups, or orange and brown decorative sprinkles.
• Using a styrofoam block set in a box or flip a large size box over and punch holes in it with a screw driver, set them in the block or box to dry. Do not place them in the block until they are almost set, otherwise you will get a big chocolate mess!
• Once completely set, you can use the smaller lollipop bags and decorative ribbon to cover them. I like to coordinate the ribbon with the type of cake pop. I used brown and orange striped ribbon for my peanut butter cake pops. Enjoy!

Steps:

• Mix together - Peanut butter, melted butter, brown sugar.
• Stir in - Powdered Sugar & vanilla.
• Melt Chocolate chips in double broiler or microwave.
• Line up muffin pans with paper baking cups inside.
• With a rubber spatula, drip some chocolate on the bottom of all the baking cups, then layer with peanut butter mixer, then add more chocolate on top. No thicker than 1/4" each.
• Let cool in the refrigerator for 15 minutes to harden.
• Peel paper, eat and enJOY!
• *For a fast and easy recipe just spread the peanut butter mixture on a cookie sheet (with a lip) then spread melted chocolate over the top. Cool and then cut into squares.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Line 2 muffin tins with paper liners.
• Combine brown sugar, butter, and peanut butter in a medium bowl. Beat with an electric mixer until creamy. Beat in eggs one at a time until combined.
• Combine flour and baking powder in a separate bowl. Slowly beat into the creamed mixture. Pour in milk and water; stir until batter is thick and smooth. Spoon batter into the prepared muffin tins. Press 2 mini peanut butter cups into each cupcake.
• Bake in the preheated oven until edges are firm and begin to pull away from the sides of the tin, 20 to 25 minutes.
• Pile 15 to 20 chocolate chips over each cupcake. Return to the oven until chocolate chips start to melt, about 1 minute. Spread melted chocolate over the cupcakes and sprinkle with chopped peanuts.

Steps:

• Prepare cake according to directions for a 9X13 pan. Set aside to cool.
• For the frosting, mix peanut butter, powdered sugar and vanilla with mixer. Add small amounts of milk until desired consistency is achieved. You want a thinner consistency for easier cutting.
• Spread frosting evenly over cool cake. (Hint -- if cake is partially frozen, there is less "tearing" when spreading the frosting.).
• For the ganache, place the chocolate chips in a heat proof bowl. In a saucepan, whisk together the heavy cream and the vanilla and bring to a simmer over medium-high heat. Pour over the chocolate chips and let sit for 5 minutes. Whisk until completely smooth then pour over peanut butter frosting.
• Sprinkle the chopped peanut butter cups over the warm chocolate to ensure it sticks. Chill for about 30 minutes to set chocolate.
• As an alternative; you can also use a bundt cake pan. Double your peanut butter frosting ingredients. Fill the bundt pan halfway, add a thin layer of peanut butter frosting, then fill the remainder with the cake mix. Make the peanut butter frosting a little thinner so it "drips" better.
• Another idea would be to add the chopped peanut butter cups to the cake mix before baking.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Line two 12-cup muffin pans with paper liners.
• Combine cake mix, cold water, peanut butter, pudding mix, and eggs in a large bowl; beat with an electric mixer until smooth. Spoon into the prepared muffin cups.
• Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted in the centers comes out clean, 18 to 21 minutes. Cool in the pans for 5 minutes. Transfer to a wire rack and let cool completely, about 25 more minutes.
• When the cupcakes are almost fully cooled, stir confectioners' sugar and milk together in a bowl. Add cocoa and cornstarch and stir until desired consistency; eyeballing it works well for icing.
• Cut out a square in the top of each cooled cupcake. Fill with icing.
