Variations to Recipe

In order to keep this recipe true to the taste of a Reeses cup, you’ll want to stick pretty close to the recommended ingredients. However that doesn’t mean there aren’t ways to add variety and make this recipe unique.

Try a different chocolate – Using dark chocolate or even white chocolate is a fun way to change up this dessert. You can even use a mixture of different chocolate and make a neat swirl pattern on the shell.
Add chopped nuts – Add some chopped peanuts, almonds, or pecans to the creamy peanut butter mixture for a nice crunch in every bite.
Use a different nut butter – Whether its crunchy or creamy, almond butter or peanut butter, any type of nut butter can be used in this no bake dessert recipe.

Tips

For a shiny chocolate shell with a nice snap to it try using tempered chocolate. Tempering the chocolate properly will also make sure the chocolate sets properly.
You can temper chocolate in the microwave easily by following these steps:
- Place the chocolate in a microwave safe bowl. Melt on 50% power for 30 seconds at a time stirring in between.
- Repeat until the chocolate has fully melted and is smooth. This may take up to 5 minutes.
Use a tart pan with a removable bottom for easy pie removal. To make removal easier sit the tart on a small bowl to support the bottom plate and carefully separate the sides of the tart shell. Once released the side should just fall away from the pie.
Use a bit of cooking spray or butter to lightly grease the tart shell before applying the parchment paper. This will help the parchment stick in place while you form the pie.
Let the pie sit at room temperature for 15-20 minutes before slicing for nice clean slices.
