This recipe tastes good but like some of the other reviews I do not care for the texture of the graham crackers. I prefer the creamyness like most of the buckeye recipies. With that bieng said, I followed the directions as recipe states & they turned out perfect.

Delicious! Very similar to those store bought! I would use a bit less butter though.

So yummy! A friend had given me the vegan version of this recipe - which was still good, but not as good as this....amazing how adding a little butter improved the flavor and the crumbs gave it that perfect texture! I didn't melt the peanut butter mixture on the stove. It was at room temp and blended nicely, and it didn't seem to make a dif to the overall flavour or texture. Also, I added 1tbsp peanut butter to the chocolate. I just used the back of the spoon to spread the chocolate around. I stored mine in the fridge (but they didn't last long) and let people peel off their own wrappers as they ate them.

I wasn't a big fan of the chunky peanut butter. I think next time I will use creamy peanut butter, but other than that, they were really good.

I've made peanut butter cups several times, always using different recipes. I assumed I'd like this recipe, with the graham crackers, better, because of the texture--but either I didn't crush the crackers finely enough or I don't like texture. They were a bit too gritty and unmixed-seeming for me. (In other words, I prefer the really simple recipes that don't call for graham crackers.) On a positive note, I used organic peanut butter (Adams creamy) and had no problem with runniness. I kept them in the fridge, though.

I thought this was okay and that is because of the ingredients I used. That is why I am giving it 5 STARS. I had honey graham crackers and think cinnamon would have made it better and used natural pb(the one with the oil on top), had I used the unhealthy pb I think it would have tasted better. I will try it that way and see. Thank u!

These are great and fun to make. Like someone else suggested I made the chocolate in two batches (1 cup chocolate chips and 1 T. shortening in each). This way the chocolate doesn't harden before you use it for the top. I also took the same persons advice and made everything in the microwave. 1 min. then stir then another 30 seconds was perfect. Instead of cups I used mini cup cake liners in the cup cake tin. This worked perfectly. They are just the right size and have the cute indents on the sides like the real candy. Next time I would like to try using dark chocolate.

I made these in a 13x9 pan and then just used a biscuit cutter to cut them out. They looked just like Reeses peanut butter cups but it doesn't take as long as brushing the chocolate in the paper liners.

Absolutely delicious!! I made these with creamy peanut butter instead of chunky, and to save time I just put the chocolate on top instead of coating the cup.....Everyone loved them and thought they were great...they taste better than buying them from the store

These are positively wonderful ! I used acrylic candy molds in the shape of small cupcake papers. This gave me 60 pieces of candy. Easy to chill and then tap the molds, upside down, on a cookie sheet and they pop right out.

We LOVED these! I used regular sized muffin cups to make BIG cups. I made the recipe as is, but next time (which is going to be really soon) I'm going to use 1/2 crunchy and 1/2 creamy to see what that is like. I also want to try all creamy as I will be making these a lot. PERFECT!! Thank you so much for sharing this recipe!

yummm, these are really good, i use regular muffin papers cut in half.. they turn out great.. make about 17 if you like a salty sweet taste, use 1 cup peanut butter and 1/2 cup powdered sugar and only 1/2 cup graham crackers.. trust me!this will give you a true peanut butter cup!!

Amazing! This recipe was very popular at my moms surprise birthday party. It is a long process but they turn out great. It is easier if you let the peanut butter filling cool before filling the cups. I also used creamy peanut butter, and used both milk chocolate and dark chocolate chips. Both were very good!I believe I got more than 30 from this recipe also!
