You're making irresistible no-bake chocolate peanut butter cups that need minimal hands-on time but require patience for chilling. The main work involves mixing a peanut butter cream, spooning it into paper cases, and topping everything with melted chocolate—all quick steps that come together in under an hour with most of the time spent waiting for the treats to set in the fridge.

Peanut butter cream
In a bowl, mix together all the ingredients for the peanut butter cream. You can beat it with a wooden spoon, but an electric whisk will happily do the job for you — it's quicker and saves your arm.

Set the cases in a tin
Arrange the paper cases in a muffin tin. I used tiny paper cases and a mini muffin tin. This gives the cases sturdy support once you start filling them.

Fill with the peanut butter mixture
Spoon about one small teaspoon of the peanut butter cream into each prepared case, smoothing it down nicely.

About this recipe
No Christmas table should be without a batch of no-bake treats. They're a hit with grown-ups and kids alike. This year, though, I discovered another brilliant no-bake sweet. Once again, it comes from my favourite cook, Nigella Lawson. I found the recipe in her book Christmas with Nigella, and after just a couple of test bites, we were completely won over.
