Ever wondered what a Reese’s Peanut Butter Cup tastes like? Here’s a safe and easy copycat treat you can make. It tastes even better than the original, too (take our word for it)!
1. With a grownup’s help, simply melt the chocolate, then harden it in the freezer.
2. Next, spoon the sunbutter mixture onto the hardened layer of chocolate.
3. Smooth it out and freeze it again.
4. Finally, top with another layer of melted chocolate and quickly spread the top layer before it hardens.
5. Freeze it one last time, then pull out of the freezer and let it warm up to room temperature to eat! You never knew it was so easy to make your own candy, did you?
Try this in mini muffin tins, too!
