Ingredients
8
ounces
of your chocolate of choice
3/4
cup
whipping cream
1
tablespoon
butter
1
cup
Reese's Miniature Peanut Butter cups
Instructions
Chop up your 8 ounces of chocolate and place in a large glass measuring cup.
In a medium pot, bring the whipping cream and butter to a boil, being careful not to scald it.
Pour over the chocolate into the measuring cup, stirring rapidly until the chocolate is completely dissolved.
Cool until just barely warm.
Chop up half a cup of the mini peanut butter cups, then add to the mixture. This cup should melt right in.
Cool the mixture in the fridge until you are confident that the next half cup of peanut butter goodness is not going to melt.
Stir in the next half cup.
Use on the bottom cake layer while the consistency is still easy to spread, then place the top layer on.
