Create sweet gifts for lovers Easy nobake chocolate peanut butter heart tech Perfect edible DIY Valentines surprise Quick delicious recipe
Ingredients
Scale
- 2 cups (12 oz) semi-sweet or dark chocolate chips
- 1 tablespoon coconut oil
- 1 cup creamy peanut butter
- 1/4 cup (1/2 stick) unsalted butter, softened
- 1 cup powdered sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 pinch salt
- Optional for garnish: Sea salt flakes, sprinkles, or drizzle of melted white chocolate
Instructions
- Combine the chocolate chips and coconut oil in a microwave-safe bowl. Microwave in 30-second bursts, stirring well after each interval, until the chocolate is completely smooth and melted.
- Using a spoon or a pastry brush, carefully coat the entire inside of each cavity in your heart-shaped mold with the melted chocolate. Place the mold in the freezer for about 15 minutes, or until the chocolate is completely set.
- In a mixing bowl, beat the softened butter and peanut butter together until smooth and creamy. Gradually add in the powdered sugar, vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt. Mix until everything is well combined and the filling is smooth.
- Remove the mold from the freezer. Spoon or pipe the peanut butter filling into each chocolate heart shell, leaving a small gap at the top. Gently tap the mold on the counter to settle the filling.
- Re-melt the remaining chocolate if it has firmed up. Carefully spoon a layer of melted chocolate over the peanut butter filling to seal each heart. Use a spatula to smooth the tops. Return the mold to the freezer for at least 1 hour, or until completely firm.
- Once fully set, pop the hearts out of the silicone mold. Let them sit at room temperature for a few minutes before serving. Garnish if desired.
