Step-by-step

  • Place white confectionery coating wafers and peanut butter chips in a microwave safe mixing bowl.
  • Heat on high power for 45 seconds.
  • Remove and stir the chips around or they will burn.
  • Heat for 30 more seconds, then stir.
  • Heat for 25 seconds, then let it sit in the microwave for 2-3 minutes, then stir vigorously.
  • If all of the chips are not melted, heat at ten second intervals, stirring in between each, until completely melted.
  • Stir in peanut butter and salt.
  • NOTES: Make sure to mix really well, scraping the bottom of the bowl. If you don't stir the peanut butter into the candy, you'll end up with clumps of hardened candy coating in your filling.
  • Allow it to cool a bit before piping it into your chocolate shells.
