Peanut Butter Filling

Remove from the double boiler and cool to 100 degrees before mixing in the melted chocolate. Set aside until cooled to room temperature.
- Whip the cream to stiff peaks and refrigerate. Whip the butter with the remaining 3 1/2 tbsp of sugar until fluffy. Fold in the cooled chocolate mixture. Then fold in the whipped cream. Spread the chocolate filling over the peanut butter filling and refrigerate for 4 hours to set.
Whipped Cream
