Homemade Peanut Butter Cups

written by Michelle September 24, 2019

Homemade peanut butter cups. No preservatives. No additives. Not too sweet. Not super healthy either, but way better than the store-bought kind and made with dark chocolate to boot. The perfect once-in-a-while, after dinner treat. Keep them in the freezer so you aren’t tempted too many in one sitting.
