Best of all, he felt proud when he tasted the final result. Now, it\u2019s a new family favorite\u2014simple enough for kids to make, and I\u2019m excited to share it with you!

In my version of Reese\u2019s miniatures, milk chocolate surrounds a mixture of maple syrup-sweetened natural peanut butter and almond flour.<\/li>\n<li>Because these homemade peanut butter cups are made in a mini-muffin tin, you get a bigger batch of candy, and they keep for up to three weeks. You can easily double or triple this recipe\u2014the cups are <strong>perfect for the lunch box, snacks, party favors (bonus\u2014they\u2019re gluten-free), and Valentine\u2019s Day!<\/strong><\/li>\n<li>Harry Burnett Reese left the Hershey company to go out on his own as a candy maker. After some false starts with other chocolate-covered treats, he created a winner with his Hershey-brand chocolate cups filled with peanut butter. Hershey\u2019s eventually acquired Reese\u2019s business, and Reese\u2019s Peanut Butter Cups remain a worldwide favorite.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2 id=\"ingre\">Key Ingredients and Why<\/h2>\n<p><picture loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-59407 size-full\" title=\"Homemade peanut butter cups1 (1)\" data-jpibfi-post-excerpt=\"\" data-jpibfi-post-url=\"https:\/\/www.biggerbolderbaking.com\/homemade-reeses-peanut-butter-cups\/\" data-jpibfi-post-title=\"Reese\u2019s Peanut Butter Cups Recipe\" data-jpibfi-src=\"https:\/\/www.biggerbolderbaking.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/Homemade-peanut-butter-cups1-1-scaled.jpg\"><source type=\"image\/webp\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.biggerbolderbaking.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/Homemade-peanut-butter-cups1-1-scaled.jpg.webp 1707w, https:\/\/www.biggerbolderbaking.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/Homemade-peanut-butter-cups1-1-200x300.jpg.webp 200w, https:\/\/www.biggerbolderbaking.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/Homemade-peanut-butter-cups1-1-683x1024.jpg.webp 683w, https:\/\/www.biggerbolderbaking.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/Homemade-peanut-butter-cups1-1-768x1152.jpg.webp 768w, https:\/\/www.biggerbolderbaking.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/Homemade-peanut-butter-cups1-1-1024x1536.jpg.webp 1024w, https:\/\/www.biggerbolderbaking.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/Homemade-peanut-butter-cups1-1-1366x2048.jpg.webp 1366w, https:\/\/www.biggerbolderbaking.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/Homemade-peanut-butter-cups1-1-267x400.jpg.webp 267w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1707px) 100vw, 1707px\"\/><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" alt=\"Reese's Peanut Butter Cups ingredients\" width=\"1707\" height=\"2560\" data-jpibfi-post-excerpt=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/www.biggerbolderbaking.com\/homemade-reeses-peanut-butter-cups\/\" data-jpibfi-post-title=\"Reese\u2019s Peanut Butter Cups Recipe\" data-jpibfi-src=\"https:\/\/www.biggerbolderbaking.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/Homemade-peanut-butter-cups1-1-scaled.jpg\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.biggerbolderbaking.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/Homemade-peanut-butter-cups1-1-scaled.jpg 1707w, https:\/\/www.biggerbolderbaking.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/Homemade-peanut-butter-cups1-1-200x300.jpg 200w, https:\/\/www.biggerbolderbaking.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/Homemade-peanut-butter-cups1-1-683x1024.jpg 683w, https:\/\/www.biggerbolderbaking.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/Homemade-peanut-butter-cups1-1-768x1152.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.biggerbolderbaking.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/Homemade-peanut-butter-cups1-1-1024x1536.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.biggerbolderbaking.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/Homemade-peanut-butter-cups1-1-1366x2048.jpg 1366w, https:\/\/www.biggerbolderbaking.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/Homemade-peanut-butter-cups1-1-267x400.jpg 267w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1707px) 100vw, 1707px\"\/>\n<\/picture><\/p>\n<h3>Milk chocolate<\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li>Milk chocolate, with its mild, sweet taste, is the perfect contrast to<strong>\u00a0salty peanut butter<\/strong>.<\/li>\n<li>Additionally, milk chocolate has a <strong>creamy consistency<\/strong>, giving the cups a softer, easy-to-bite texture.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Substitutions:<\/strong>\n<ul>\n<li>If you prefer your chocolate less sweet, go for a bittersweet, dark, or semisweet variety.<\/li>\n<li>Note that the texture of the cups might be slightly harder if you use these types of chocolate.<\/li>\n<li><strong>If you\u2019re looking for a result more like the Reese\u2019s Peanut Butter Cup recipe, use milk chocolate.<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3>Natural peanut butter<\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li>Natural peanut butter has superior peanut flavor and no added sugar.<\/li>\n<li>Importantly, natural peanut butter has a smooth texture without artificial stabilizers.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Substitutions:\u00a0<\/strong>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3>Almond flour<\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li>Almond flour adds thickness to the peanut butter, giving the filling more structure.<\/li>\n<li>Additionally, almond flour adds more protein to this snack.<\/li>\n<li>Almond flour also gives a touch of nutty sweetness to the filling.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Substitutions: <\/strong>You don\u2019t need to go out and buy a bag of almond flour in this recipe.
