Upgrade your peanut butter cups by filling your chocolate candy with pistachio butter instead! This is the true pb cup - ditch the peanuts and jump to pistachios, aka the rich man's peanut butter ;)
MINI PISTACHIO BUTTER CUPS RECIPE
INGREDIENTS
- Peppertux Farms Pistachio Butter or Cream. Any of the following would work for this recipe:
- 1/2 cup Peppertux Farms Unsweetened Pistachio Butter + 4 tbsp powdered sugar
- 1/2 cup Peppertux Farms Original Pistachio Butter
- 1/2 cup Peppertux Farms Vegan Pistachio Cream
- 2 tbsp softened butter
- 16oz dark chocolate chips, melted
- Optional: chopped pistachios to garnish
INSTRUCTIONS
- Line a mini muffin tin with cupcake liners.
- Melt chocolate and fill each liner ever so slightly, just barely enough to fill the bottom of each cup. Place in freezer for 15 minutes.
- In the meantime, whip Peppertux Farms Pistachio Butter or Pistachio Cream with softened butter (and powdered sugar if using Unsweetened Pistachio Butter).
- Place a teaspoon of the pistachio filling into each cup of the muffin tin. Place in freezer for about 10 minutes.
- Fill the rest of the muffin liners with the remaining chocolate. Freeze again for 10 minutes to solidify the upper most layer of chocolate.
- Enjoy at room temperature for the best texture.
