Ingredients
  

  • 3/4 cup creamy peanut butter
  • 1/4 cup butter, softened
  • 1/4 cup brown sugar
  • 1 1/2 cups powdered sugar
  • 24 ounces milk chocolate chips 2 bags chocolate chips; you can also use semi sweet

Instructions
 

  • In a mixing bowl, combine peanut butter, butter, brown sugar and powdered sugar.
  • Place chocolate chips in a microwave-safe bowl. Microwave for 30 seconds, then remove the bowl and give it a stir. Place the bowl back into the microwave and repeat the process until you stir the chocolate and it's smooth and melted.
  • In your heart tray, place enough chocolate in the heart shape to cover the bottom of the mold.
  • Add 1 to 2 teaspoons of your peanut butter mixture on top of the chocolate (you can kind of mold it into a flat heart shape or leave it in a ball shape – whatever you prefer).
  • Cover the peanut butter with more melted chocolate until the heart mold is full.
  • Stick in the refrigerator or freezer until hardened. Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator until you are ready to eat them.
