Ingredients
- 1 cup Creamy peanut butter
- 4 tablespoons Unsalted butter (softened)
- 1.5 cups Powdered sugar
- 1 pinch Salt
Directions
Step 1
In a medium-sized mixing bowl, combine the creamy peanut butter and softened unsalted butter. Use a hand mixer or a whisk to blend until smooth and well incorporated.
Step 2
Gradually add the powdered sugar to the peanut butter mixture, about 1/2 cup at a time. Mix thoroughly after each addition to ensure there are no lumps.
Step 3
Add a pinch of salt to enhance the flavor, and mix again until fully incorporated. The filling should be soft but firm enough to hold its shape.
Step 4
Transfer the mixture to a clean bowl or piping bag. The filling is now ready to use in homemade peanut butter cups or as a filling for other desserts.
Step 5
If not using immediately, cover the bowl with plastic wrap and store the filling in the refrigerator for up to 1 week. Allow the filling to come to room temperature before using.
