Ingredients:

- 12 ounces dark chocolate or milk chocolate, good quality

- 1 cup creamy peanut butter

- 1 cup powdered sugar

- ⅓ cup graham cracker crumbs

- ¼ teaspoon salt

Equipment:

- 24 silicone muffin liners

Instructions: 

Melt the chocolate in the microwave on medium power, stirring every 30 seconds. Avoid overheating the chocolate to prevent it from seizing.

Pour about a teaspoon of melted chocolate into each well or muffin liner. Use the back of a spoon or a pastry brush to spread it up the sides, ensuring the bottom and sides are completely covered.

Place the mold in the freezer for 30 seconds to firm the chocolate. Correct any thin spots if necessary.

Refrigerate the mold until the chocolate is cold.

In a bowl, combine peanut butter, powdered sugar, graham crumbs, and salt. Stir to combine.

Gently press approximately 2 teaspoons of the peanut butter mixture into each well to flatten.

Pour enough melted chocolate over the peanut butter to cover it entirely. Tap the mold to level the top.

Refrigerate until the chocolate is firm.
