Ingredients
Scale
Chocolate Shell
- 200g semi-sweet or milk chocolate, chopped
Peanut Butter Filling
- 100g smooth peanut butter
- 50g powdered sugar
Instructions
- Melt the Chocolate: Gently melt the chopped chocolate using a double boiler or microwave, stirring frequently until smooth and glossy.
- Fill the Molds with Chocolate: Pour a thin layer of melted chocolate into skull-shaped candy molds, making sure to coat all sides evenly. Tap the molds lightly to remove air bubbles.
- Chill to Set the Shell: Place the molds in the refrigerator for about 10 minutes to allow the chocolate shell to harden.
- Prepare the Peanut Butter Filling: In a bowl, mix the smooth peanut butter with powdered sugar until it forms a thick, scoopable filling.
- Stuff the Molds: Spoon the peanut butter mixture into the chocolate shells, leaving some space at the top to seal with more chocolate.
- Seal the Candies: Cover the peanut butter filling with the remaining melted chocolate to seal each candy completely.
- Chill to Set: Refrigerate the filled molds for at least 30 minutes until the chocolates are fully set and easy to remove from the molds.
- Demold and Serve: Carefully pop the peanut butter stuffed chocolate skull candies out of the molds and serve or store in an airtight container.
Notes
- Use good quality chocolate for the best taste and texture.
- If the chocolate seizes or becomes grainy, add a small amount of vegetable oil and stir gently to restore smoothness.
- Store the candies in a cool, dry place or refrigerate to keep them fresh longer.
- For a crunchy texture, try adding chopped peanuts into the peanut butter filling.
