I make giant peanut butter cups sometimes :drool:

It's really easy. I mean, you buy some chocolate and melt it down then put some paper baking cups in a muffin tin, and smear the chocolate all up the bottom and sides of the cups. Stick it in the fridge to set, meanwhile you mix up some peanut butter with a load of powdered sugar, the spoon that into the cups, top with more melted chocolate, back in the fridge to set, and eaaaaaat.

*should totally jot this down*


You have no idea what you've just done.
 
I'm not enough of a fan of peanut butter to enjoy Reese's.

I'm not much of a candy fan in general. Kit-Kat Bars and Swedish Fish are two exceptions.

You guys know what's also good?

Things that don't contain nuts. :up:

Like leftover pizza for breakfast. :drool:
 
You know what else is good? That sound you make when you open a can of tennis balls.

Full recipe:

Line a muffin tin with paper cupcake liners. Melt half a bag of milk chocolate chips (you can do semi-sweet if you like), pour into the bottom of the liners, using your spoon to sort of spread it up the sides a bit. Put into the fridge to set.
Meanwhile, mix 1 and a half cups peanut butter with half a cup of powdered sugar. Add a little bit of water to make it easy to mix. The result should be thicker than regular peanut butter and not quite as sticky.
Fill the set chocolate cups with a bit of the peanut butter mixture. Don't spread it against the naked sides of the paper liners, you want room around the edges for the chocolate.
Melt the remaining chocolate chips and top the cups, being sure to let it pour down the edges, surrounding the peanut butter. Put back into the fridge to set, then enjoy.

My measurements are not exact, because I do everything by eye and feel. Just keep an eye on the texture of the peanut butter mixture.

You know, this recipe could be used with almost any filling. Next time I'm gonna do marshmallow creme and caramel :drool:

Oooh, I might have to try this. Sounds delicious. :drool:
 
They're very cake-like, not chewy or brittle in the least.

I only have one crappy pic taken with my old crappy camera (I'll have to make a batch again soon in order to get a better photo) :

Recipe:
1 (18.25 ounce) package yellow cake mix
2 eggs
1/4 cup packed brown sugar
1/4 cup butter or margarine, melted
1/4 cup water
2 cups semisweet chocolate chips

Preheat oven to 375 degrees and grease a 13x9 inch cake pan. Mix all the ingredients except the chocolate chips and beat with a mixer for 2 minutes or until smooth. Stir in the chocolate chips. (I didn't measure mine exactly, I just eyeballed it until it looked like the right consistancy.) Spread into the cake pan and bake for 20-25 minutes, until lightly browned on top. Remove from heat and cool in the pan for 10 minutes. Cut into bars and remove from pan. Eat one straight from the pan while it's hot and goooey mmm.

The addition of a half a cup of chopped nuts is optional to the recipe (I never add nuts), also for extra yumminess, you can drizzle some melted chocolate across the top as soon as they come out of the oven.
 
Though I'm not sure what on earth "1 (18.25 ounce) package yellow cake mix" is meant to be or what the Aussie equivalent would be.

You guys don't have ounces?

16 ounces is a pound, isn't it?

Of course we don't have ounces, we use metric. Grams and kilograms, man.

But it wasn't that, I'm wondering what the fuck yellow cake is.
 
I thought I knew all the stuff we had different in units. Guess not.

I don't actually know what yellow cake is either, I've always just taken for granted that it was there. It's just a sugary cake.

Do you know anything? At all? And don't say "I know that you're a douche bag" because all that will get you is an in-person demonstration of the true meaning of the word "pound", as I pound you into the Earth, never to be heard from again. Hope all is well.
