I’m already starting to see some Halloween decor starting to pop up at Target…I’m just jumping on the early bandwagon. You guys know we have a thing for nut butter cups. I mean, we did have a whole week dedicated to them on FFF. This pumpkin peanut butter cup recipe is a little bit different than our normal nut butter cups in that the filling is covered by a hard chocolate shell. I’m a-okay with this…if you are! Okay, so, what do you need? Easy! Only 5 simple ingredients.

Pumpkin Peanut Butter Cups Ingredients

As always you can sway out any of the above ingredients to your liking. For example, you can use dark chocolate instead of semi-sweet or almond butter instead of peanut butter! Just don’t swap anything for the pumpkin puree because that’s the star! Oh, and make sure you’re using 100% pumpkin puree with no added sugar or additives <3 chocolate pumpkin pumpkin peanut butter cups

Should it be 1/4 cup or 1/3 cup peanut butter? The ingredients and directions have different amounts ๐Ÿ˜Š. These sound and look delicious. On my list to make for sure!

I am not one to make desserts, this was a first for me, and these turned out absolutely FANTASTIC. Not only do they look so gourmet but they taste incredible too. My mom is not a chocolate lover at all and she couldn’t believe how good these were. In the photos shown here, it looks like you’re preparing them so neatly.. it was a very messy process for me LOL! I most definitely will be making more of these ?? thank you so much
