Peanut Butter Shortbread Bites

And, we’re back to peanut butter.  And mini shortbread cookies.  And milk chocolate.  Oh my.  These are great for a bite sized chocolate snack, but be careful…they’re addictive!

First, get some peanut butter and mini shortbread cookies.  The 100 calories snack size cookies are a perfect size for the mold that I bought from the chocolate store.

Melt your chocolate in 30 second intervals in the microwave until melted and smooth, stirring between each time put int he microwave.  Drop a small amount in each cavity, using a paintbrush to smooth and distribute the chocolate evenly throughout the cavities.

Next, put a small amount of peanut butter in each cavity.  I use a butter knife and a lollipop stick to transfer the globs of peanut butter into the mold.  Place each cookie on top of the peanut butter.

Cover each cookie with a small amount of chocolate, using the paintbrush to completely cover the cookie.  As it turns out, there were 18 cavities in the mold, and 18 cookies in the packet.  It was fate, they were meant to be together.  😉

Put in the freezer to set, then take the chocolates out of the mold.  And again, watch out for these little guys!  They’ll get you hooked!
