peanut butter cup

why do think I really made it, the alcohol too, dulls the pain :laugh:

hahahaha me too, love Reese's more than anything; my wife picked up a one pound package of Reese's for my son, two 1/2 pound cups, he loved them, took him about 2 weeks to work his way though them. This one puts those to shame :laugh: :laugh: :laugh:

in the liquor store earlier to pick up some Gin & eyeballed this, have not had it since college, got a little nostalgic for pennsyltucky's finest spirit

Tammie, it's really easy & no cooking necessary. Start with a 10 inch pie tin & put about 1/2 a bag (11oz bag) of milk chocolate chips in then pop in the oven on the lowest setting for maybe 10 minutes, then spread the chocolate around & up the sides, pop in the fridge to harden. For the center, I mixed one pound of confectioners sugar with one 28oz jar of peanut butter with the kitchen aid until well incorported. Scoop it into the tin (it's kind of stiff, so I put plastic wrap on top & sort of hand worked it into shape). Then just pour on more melted chocolate spreading around to cover everything - into the fridge for a little while & that's it. It's about the easiest thing in the world to make & really good if you're a Reese's freak. The really cool thin is that this entire 4lb cup only cost about $7.00 to make

between this & my $7 vodka i'm a pretty cheap date :laugh:

I'm not proud of this, but when I went to college (freshman year), I arrived with my clothes, toothbrush, comb, radio, box of pencils, & a case of 1/2 gallons of Nikolai. I was partial at that time to mixing it either with pineapple juice or lemon koolaid (though when going the lemon route we also added grain & gin, you know, for a balanced approach); it was a massacre of brain cells

the cake v. cup is an outstanding issue, party is actually tonight thus the lack of cut-into pictures. Wife finds it odd to serve a giant reese's cup to the family coming & thinks a 'real' cake is in order

I have trouble with these institutions
