Answer 1

Homemade Peanut Butter Cups

INGREDIENTS
2 cups milk chocolate chips
2 tablespoons shortening
1/2 cup butter
1/2 cup crunchy peanut butter
1 cup confectioners' sugar
2/3 cup graham cracker crumbs

DIRECTIONS
In 1-quart saucepan combine chocolate chips and shortening. Cook over low heat, stirring occasionally, until melted and smooth (3 to 5 minutes).
Loosen top paper cup from stack, but leave in stack for greater stability while being coated. With small paint brush, coat inside top cup evenly with about 1 teaspoon melted chocolate to about 1/8-inch thickness, bringing coating almost to top of cup, but not over edge. Repeat until 30 cups are coated; refrigerate cups.
In 2-quart saucepan combine butter or margarine and peanut butter. Cook over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until melted (4 to 6 minutes). Stir in confectioners' sugar and graham cracker crumbs. Press about 1/2 tablespoon filling into each chocolate cup.
Spoon about 1/2 teaspoon melted chocolate on top of filling; spread to cover. Freeze until firm (about 2 hours) carefully peel off paper cups. Store refrigerated.

Answer 2

I have used this one for years:
Peanut butter mixture

1lb confectioneres sugar
1/4lb melted margarine
2cups peanut butter
1Tbsp water

Topping
12 oz MILK chocolate chips or bar
1/2cup margarine

Cream together sugar,melted margarine,peanut butter and water.press evenly into 9x13" pan.For toppping:Melt chocolate with margarine(slowly so it doesn't burn)stir and quickly pour over peanut butter mixture.Chill.

This stuff is great,make sure you use MILK chocolate chips,and margarine,not butter.Butter makes the mixture drier.Enjoy!
