Homemade peanut butter cups have been on the top of my “to make” list for a while, it’s a shame it took this long. Reese’s makes a pretty decent peanut butter cup but darn those things are addicting. To add to the trouble, those little buggers are quite pricey for a sorta-peanut-butter covered in plastic-like chocolate. The logical next step is to make them which at first seems like a lot of work, but they’re not. Once I worked up the courage to make my own I realized there was no reason they couldn’t be healthy too. Dark chocolate is high in antioxidants (which means you might live forever) and we all know peanut butter comes straight from the Fountain of Youth – how else can I explain the fact that after two of these I was crawling on the floor, drooling and uttering squeals of joy? By the way, these make an excellent Mother’s Day gift.
