How to Make Reese's Peanut Butter Cup Filling

  1. In a medium bowl, combine the peanut butter, powdered sugar, and butter. Mix until smooth and creamy. If using granulated sugar, blend in a coffee grinder until finely powdered.
  2. Melt the chocolate chips in a double boiler or microwave-safe bowl in 30 second intervals, stirring until completely melted and smooth.
  3. Once the chocolate is melted, gently stir in the peanut butter mixture until fully combined.
  4. Pour the filling into peanut butter cup molds. Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow the filling to set completely.
  5. Once set, fill the molds with melted chocolate to create the complete candy.
