Place a piece of parchment paper on a flat moveable surface, like a cutting board.

Place peanut butter and butter in a glass bowl and microwave on high for 1 minute. Stir.

Add vanilla extract and powdered sugar to the bowl and stir until smooth.

Place the peanut butter mixture on the parchment paper. Use a rolling pin to roll out the dough to less

than ½ inch thick. Place in freezer for 30 minutes.

Once chilled, use a heart-shaped cookie cutter to cut out peanut butter hearts – continuing until dough

is used up. Place in the fridge while completing next step.

Heat chocolate in the microwave for 1 minute on high, stir. Microwave in 30 second intervals, stirring

in between, until chocolate is completely melted.

Dip the peanut butter hearts into the chocolate – use a spoon to completely coat. Use a fork to lift the

heart out of the chocolate and tap on the side of the bowl to remove excess chocolate. Place chocolate

covered heart on parchment paper. Continue until all hearts are coated in chocolate.

If you’d like to add a little decorative drizzle, use a fork dipped in the melted chocolate and shake it

back and forth over each heart.

Place hearts in the refrigerator for 10-15 minutes to allow chocolate to harden.
