Steps

1 Heat oven to 400°F. Spray 16 mini muffin cups with baking spray with flour.
2 Remove pie crust from pouch; unroll on work surface. Cut each pie crust into 16 (2 3/8-inch) rounds; press rounds in bottoms and up sides of muffin cups.
3 Bake 6 to 8 minutes or until edges are light golden brown. Remove from pans to cooling racks; cool completely.

Tips

Expert Tips

For best results, use a creamy, regular (not natural) peanut butter.

To make your own chocolate shavings for garnish, simply grate a small piece of good-quality chocolate on the small-hole side of a cheese grater or use a Microplane grater.
