Peanut Butter Meltaways

An above view of a christmas tin loaded with peanut butter meltway chocolate candies.

This Peanut Butter Meltaway recipe went viral last year, and for good reason. The chocolates are smooth, creamy, and taste like they came straight from a chocolate shop, without a lot of effort.

Ingredients

12 oz Chocolate Chips
12 oz White Chocolate Chips
10 oz Creamy Peanut Butter

Instructions

Add the Chocolate chips and white chocolate chips to a large microwave safe bowl. Microwave in 30 second increments, stirring as much as you can after, until you can stir it totally smooth. 12 oz Chocolate Chips, 12 oz White Chocolate Chips
Add the Peanut butter to the bowl and stir it in until its totally creamy and smooth. 10 oz Creamy Peanut Butter
Pour the chocolate into the silicone molds, laying on cookie sheets, filling each about 3/4 of the way, you do not want to overfill them. You can use a pourable measuring cup, or transfer the chocolate into a clear squeeze bottle and use that to pour into the molds. (You can also pour the mixture into muffin liners, or mini muffin liners.) Tap the molds on the counter to flatten the chocolate.
Transfer the molds to the freezer to 5 or 10 minutes. Pop the chocolate out of the molds, and transfer them to a fridge safe container and store in the fridge for up to 2 weeks.

Notes

Chocolate: Use a high quality chocolate and white chocolate so your meltaways have a nice flavor. You can use chopped chocolate bars, or chocolate chips. I like Ghiradelli for these.
Use a Squeeze Bottle: Pour the candy mixture into a squeeze bottle. I grabbed a two dollar Plastic Squeeze Bottle from Walmart, and snipped the tip so the chocolate would come out faster.
Silicone Molds: Any flexible silicone molds should work. I've seen them at the Dollar Store, or Walmart, and I bought mine on amazon. You want each candy spot to be between 1-2 inches in size. Here are the ones I bought, and here is a another and another.
