Tasteful little pies with creamy peanut butter filling and rich chocolate ganache on top. Sprinkled with a handful of mini chocolate chips and crushed peanuts, these little desserts are tempting you to take them.
That creamy filling was so soft and I was skeptical at first that it would stand firm on the top of the crust. Thankful for the muffin liners, I filled them with this soft and delicious cream and put them into the freezer for an hour to be sure that it would be safe to get the liners off. Then I proudly took them off and enjoyed the tempting dessert looks.
I’m sure that this was not the last time I have made these. Everyone loved it and asked for the recipe. The best combination of cheese, chocolate and peanut butter came together in one little muffin pie.
