Gourmet Chocolate Peanut Butter Cups

It sure is hard being a food blogger’s kid!

I need to remind my kids constantly how lucky they are that baking and making unique eats is daily enjoyment in our house.

Yesterday we made these. If you aren’t salivating, you should be. So rich, so creamy, so delish!

I followed the Raw Chocolate PB Cups recipe from Sarah @ The Sweet Life but did cheat and use semi-sweet chocolate chips & homemade pb. Still ooey-gooey goodness! Next time I think I’ll try sprinkling the top chocolate with a tiny pinch of sea salt prior to freezing. The contrasting taste of salt & sweet would make these sublime! (I used 1 & 1/4 cup of choc chips and was able to make 16 cups. Make sure to reserve enough chocolate for the top layer!)

These would make a great surprise treat after school!

Enjoy ~

Lowcountry Giving Day

It’s a pretty awesome day when you find out that $1.5 Million dollars in matching gifts have been pledged to local Lowcountry charities!

And when you do the math…matching means double your gift…so basically $3 Million dollars could be poured into our community this Tuesday!

This Tuesday, May 6, Coastal Community Foundation is taking part in #givelocalamerica #lowcountrygivingday for a 24 hour online fundraising campaign. There are almost 100 local non-profits that will benefit from this fundraising effort. In order for your donation to be matched, it must be made directly at Lift The Lowcountry.

So get ready to make a donation this Tuesday, May 6 to the charities that touch your heart.
