Ingredients:
- 1 (12-ounce) package white chocolate baking chips
- 1 cup dark chocolate chips
- 1 cup creamy peanut butter
- 2 Tbsp coconut oil or shortening
- Optional: decorating icing and decorations
Directions:
Combine first four ingredients in a microwave-safe bowl. Cover and microwave on HIGH for 1 1/2 minutes. Remove from microwave and stir. Then return to microwave and cook an additional 30 seconds on high; remove and stir until mixture is smooth.
Separate and arrange empty mini baking liners or candy cups on a clean 10×15″ jelly roll pan. Pour melted chocolate mixture into the mini liners, filling until almost full (if you have a microwaveable mixing bowl with a narrow lip or spout, you can pour the mixture right from that.)
Place the sheet of filled mini liners into your refrigerator and chill until set. After they’re set (about an hour), you can decorate them if you want. If you’re not eating these right away, keep stored in refrigerator until ready to serve.
TO DECORATE: You can make little star shapes with a tube of Wilton Decorating Icing, which is very quick and easy to do (make sure you get those plastic tips–sometimes they’re sold separately). Or do the same thing with your own frosting and decorating tools. You can also use small pre-made cookie decorations. Place icing on the back of the decorations to use as glue to stick to the candy.
