Virginia Feature: Homemade Chocolate Peanut Butter Cups

Chocolate is a treat associated with feelings of affection. Smelling and eating chocolate can create sensations of happiness and love. With it’s slight caffeine content, chocolate even has the power to stimulate the mind, and sharpen one’s focus. Needless to say, after becoming a sleep-deprived parent, I always have a stash.

Even though chocolate is a wonderfully sweet indulgence without any added ingredients, something truly magical happens when you pair it with salty peanut butter. This is a life lesson that I learned from my sister. She taught me that in a moment of stress, a good chocolate peanut butter cup can make your worries disappear. So I had her in mind when I found a recipe for homemade peanut butter cups, a treat that our daughters love as well.

With all natural ingredients, these no-bake chocolate peanut butter cups are a great dessert for you and the chocolate-peanut butter lovers in your life. This recipe is dedicated to Auntie Sarah.

Bon Appétit!
