Chocolate Peanut Butter Cups (Reese's Pieces Knock off)

Chocolate Peanut Butter Cups (Reese's Pieces Knock off).
You will need: -Peanut Butter -chocolate chips(any kind you wish) -Rice Krispies cereal (or similar brand) -cupcake cups -cut the cupcake cups in half, or to your desired height. Or...leave them as is for a giant one! -place them in cupcake pan (this is to make sure that they mold properly). -melt chocolate chips over pot with boiling water in metal or glass bowl. -Once melted, dollop (with spoon) into cupcake cup. Use a paintbrush to fill the cup. All you want is a layer on the inside of the cup, you DO NOT want to fill it. -once all cups are filled, place pan in freezer to set. -while in freezer, make the inside mix with peanut butter and smashed up rice krispies. (they turn out better if you smash the rice krispies.). -This is the part where you can decided to add another ingredient. You could add oats, or even nuts, or go crazy and add something completely different! -when chocolate is stiff, take out of freezer (I left mine in for 10 minutes, but it probably doesn't take that long). Fill the cups with your peanut butter mix. -when filled, pace back in the freezer. (this is not necessary, I just found it easier to put chocolate on the top if the peanut butter is a little stiff.) -get your chocolate ready again for the top. Use the left overs from the shells, or add/re melt more chocolate. -take out of freezer when stiff. (I took them out one by one so they did not melt on the counter while waiting to be topped.) - Fill in a dollop of chocolate on the top, and use the paint brush again to fill it in. (Add sprinkles for kids!) -Place in the fridge for eating!! Yum! enjoy.
