Double Chocolate Peanut Butter Bites Recipes

Steps:

• Heat oven to 350°F. Line bottom and sides of 8-inch square pan with foil, leaving 2 inches excess foil hanging over edges of pan. Spray in bottom only with cooking spray.
• In large bowl, stir cookie mix, melted butter and eggs until soft dough forms. Press evenly in pan.
• Bake 25 to 27 minutes or until center is set. Cool 5 minutes. Use metal spatula to flatten edges of cookie base to form an even surface. Cool completely, about 1 hour 30 minutes.
• In medium bowl, beat cream cheese, peanut butter and powdered sugar with electric mixer on medium speed until blended. Add whipping cream. Beat on high speed about 2 minutes or until light and fluffy.
• Using excess foil on edges of pan as handles, remove baked cookie base from pan. Using 1 1/2-inch round cookie cutter, cut out rounds from cookie base. Place on tray lined with foil or cooking parchment paper.
• Place cream cheese mixture in decorating bag fitted with 1/2-inch round decorating tip. Pipe on top of each cookie base. Sprinkle each with shaved chocolate. Store in refrigerator until serving.

Steps:

• For the peanut butter filling: In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, add the peanut butter, confectioners' sugar, butter and vanilla. Mix on medium-low speed until creamy. Shape into 1-inch balls and set on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Refrigerate for 2 hours.
• For the chocolate coating: In a heat-proof glass bowl set over a pot of simmering water, add the coconut oil and chocolate chips; melt together, stirring, until smooth and silky. Dip the peanut butter balls in the chocolate and place back on the parchment-lined baking sheet. Let cool until completely set, then refrigerate until ready to serve, up to 24 hours.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 350°F. Line 8-inch square pan with cooking parchment paper or spray with cooking spray.
• With stand mixer or hand-held mixer, beat double chocolate chunk cookie mix, 1/4 cup oil, 2 tablespoons water and the egg until a soft dough forms. Spread half of dough in bottom of pan.
• With stand mixer or hand-held mixer, beat peanut butter cookie mix, 2 tablespoons oil and 1 tablespoon water until a crumbly dough forms. Spoon tablespoons of dough over chocolate cookie dough. Spoon remaining chocolate cookie dough in between mounds of peanut butter cookie dough. Use spatula to flatten dough. Sprinkle chocolate chunks evenly over top.
• Bake 30 to 35 minutes or until edges are brown and center is set. Cool completely, about 45 minutes.
• For bars, cut into 4 rows by 4 rows.

Steps:

• Line an 8 inch square pan as follows: Turn the pan over, cover with a 12 inch square of aluminum foil shiny side down, fold down the sides and corners to shape the foil, remove the foil, turn the pan over again and place the foil into the pan, pressing it carefully to fit smooth.
• Set aside.
• In the large bowl of an electric mixture (or any large bowl with a wooden spatula), mix the butter with the cookie crumbs, sugar and peanut butter.
• Turn into the lined pan.
• With the bottom of a teaspoon, smooth the mixture to make an even layer.
• Let stand at room temperature.
• Break up the chocolate and melt in the microwave or on top of a double boiler.
• Stir until completely melted and smooth.
• Pour the chocolate on to the peanut butter layer.
• With the bottom of a teaspoon smooth all the chocolate over the bottom layer, touching the sides of the foil.
• Refrigerate for an hour (or longer), until firm.
• Lift the candy from the pan by lifting the aluminum foil.
• Place the candy, still on the foil, on a cutting board.
• Fold down the sides of the foil and let stand.
• If you cut this into squares while cold it will crumble.
• Let it stand for about an hour, then cut into 32 small squares.
• Serve at room temperature.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Line a 9x13-inch baking pan with parchment paper.
• Combine dark chocolate and 3/4 cup plus 1 tablespoon butter in a medium, oven-safe bowl.
• Place the bowl in the preheated oven until chocolate and butter are melted, 10 to 12 minutes. Remove from the oven and let cool for about 10 minutes.
• Mix flour, salt, baking powder, and cinnamon together in a separate bowl.
• Add sugar to the cooled chocolate mixture. Whisk in eggs, one at a time. Add vanilla extract and whisk until combined. Fold into the flour mixture until incorporated. Stir in peanut butter, peanut butter chips, and white chocolate chips.
• Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with moist crumbs but not wet batter, 25 to 30 minutes. Let cool on a wire rack for 20 to 30 minutes before cutting into bars.
