Peanut Butter Cup Tart Recipes

PEANUT BUTTER CUP TART

Steps:

• Crust: Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Pulse wafers in a food processor until fine crumbs form. Add butter, granulated sugar, and salt; process until well combined. Press mixture firmly into bottom and up sides of a 10-inch fluted tart pan with removable bottom. Bake until crust is fragrant, about 15 minutes. Transfer to a wire rack and let cool completely.
• Filling: Sift confectioners' sugar into a large bowl; set aside. Combine butter, cream, peanut butter, vanilla, and salt in a saucepan over medium heat. Cook, stirring, until butter and peanut butter are just melted. Pour over confectioners' sugar in bowl and whisk until smooth. Pour into cooled crust and spread to edges with a small offset spatula. Cover with plastic wrap, pressing it directly onto surface, and let cool to room temperature, about 30 minutes.
• Topping: Place chocolate and butter in a heatproof bowl. Bring cream just to a boil in a small saucepan over medium heat; pour over chocolate mixture. Let stand 5 minutes until chocolate has softened, then stir together with a rubber spatula until emulsified. Let cool at room temperature, stirring occasionally, until ganache is thick, glossy, and just holds a line but is still pourable, 30 to 40 minutes.
• Place tart on a revolving cake stand. Pour ganache into center of tart and carefully spread just shy of the edges. Using a small offset spatula held at an angle, create a spiral pattern in the top of the tart by spinning cake stand while slowly sliding spatula out from the center of the tart to the edge. Let stand at room temperature until ganache has set, about 1 hour. Serve at room temperature with whipped cream and peanut brittle, if desired. Tart is best served the same day but can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature up to 2 days.

PEANUT BUTTER TART

Steps:

• Crust: Pulse graham crackers in a food processor until fine crumbs form. Add butter and pulse until mixture resembles wet sand. Press mixture into bottom and up sides of a 13 3/4-by-4 1/4-inch rectangular tart pan with removable bottom. Refrigerate while making filling.
• Filling: Prepare an ice-water bath. Place chocolate in a medium bowl. In a small saucepan, bring 1/2 cup cream to a boil over medium heat. Pour over chocolate and let stand 5 minutes. Whisk to combine. Set in ice-water bath until ganache is cool, whisking constantly. Once cool, remove from ice-water bath, and whisk until ganache is just thick enough to hold its shape; do not overbeat. Spread in bottom of prepared crust; refrigerate until set, 30 minutes.
• Process peanut butter, cream cheese, and condensed milk in food processor until smooth. Transfer to a bowl.
• Whip 3/4 cup cream to soft peaks. Add whipped cream to peanut butter mixture; whisk to combine.

PEANUT BUTTER CUP TART WITH CHOCOLATE COOKIE CRUST

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (180 degrees C).
• To make the crust, in a medium bowl, mix the chocolate wafer cookie crumbs and salt. Add the melted butter and mix until the cookie crumbs are well coated. Sprinkle the cookie crumb mixture in a 9-inch (23-cm) tart pan, with a little extra around the base of the sides. Press the crumbs on the bottom and sides of the pan using the heel of your hand or a tart tamper. Make sure the crust is as even in thickness as possible. Blind bake the crust for 8 to 10 minutes, then place it on a wire rack and allow it to cool completely. (Blind baking means to partially or fully cook a pie or tart crust that has a filling that is cooked for only a short period of time or not at all.)
• To make the peanut butter filling, in a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, beat the peanut butter and softened butter until well mixed. Add the confectioners' sugar, salt and nutmeg and mix to combine. Next, add the milk and vanilla extract and beat until smooth, about 1 minute. Fill the cooled crust with the peanut butter filling, leveling it with an offset spatula. The crust should extend above the filling slightly to leave space for the chocolate ganache topping.
• To make the chocolate ganache topping, melt the chocolate in a heatproof bowl set over a saucepan of simmering water or a double boiler. Whisk in the heavy cream until smooth. Add the butter and corn syrup and whisk until the butter is melted and the chocolate mixture is smooth. Pour the chocolate mixture on top of the tart, moving the tart in a tilting motion so the chocolate runs to the sides and covers the entire top of the tart. Garnish the edges of the tart with the chopped peanuts. Refrigerate the tart for at least 1 hour and serve chilled. The tart can be made 1 day ahead and stored, covered, in the refrigerator.

Place on top of brownie mixture in each foil cup. Spoon and spread 1 measuring teaspoon brownie mixture over cookie filling in each cup.

• Heat chocolate in a heatproof bowl set over a saucepan of barely simmering water (bowl should not touch water), stirring, until melted. Remove from heat and, stirring constantly, add oil. Let cool, stirring occasionally, until chocolate mixture firms slightly, about 10 minutes.
• Pour a little less than half of chocolate mixture into prepared pan; reserve remaining chocolate mixture at room temperature. Tilt pan until bottom is evenly coated. Chill until firm, about 15 minutes.
• Meanwhile, purée peanuts, powdered sugar, peanut butter, and salt in a food processor, scraping bowl often, until mixture forms a large mass around the blade that sticks together; do not overprocess or mixture will be too soft and greasy.
• Transfer peanut mixture to a large sheet of wax paper. Press firmly into a disk 1/4" smaller than diameter of tart pan, about 9 3/4", until no cracks remain. Carefully invert disk into tart pan, centering it. Peel off and discard wax paper.
