Serves: 4 servings
Ingredients
- 1 cup creamy peanut butter
- 1 cup cream cheese, softened
- 1 cup powdered sugar
- 1 cup whipped topping
- 1/2 cup chocolate sauce
- Mini graham cracker crumbs for garnish
Instructions
- Prepare your workspace by gathering all ingredients and ensuring they are at room temperature. Line up 4 small shooter glasses or dessert shot glasses.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the softened cream cheese and creamy peanut butter. Use an electric mixer to blend until completely smooth and no lumps remain, approximately 2-3 minutes.
- Gradually add powdered sugar to the peanut butter mixture, continuing to mix on low speed until fully incorporated and the mixture becomes light and fluffy.
- Gently fold in the whipped topping using a spatula, being careful not to deflate the mixture. Mix until ingredients are evenly combined and create a smooth, creamy texture.
- Transfer the peanut butter mixture into a piping bag or a large zip-top bag with a corner snipped off for easy filling.
- Pipe the peanut butter mixture into each shooter glass, filling approximately 3/4 of the way to the top.
- Drizzle chocolate sauce over the top of each filled shooter, creating a decorative swirl pattern.
- Sprinkle mini graham cracker crumbs on top of each shooter for added texture and garnish.
- Refrigerate the shooters for at least 30 minutes to allow the mixture to set and flavors to meld together.
- Before serving, remove from refrigerator and let sit at room temperature for 5 minutes to soften slightly. Serve chilled and enjoy!
Tips
- Temperature Matters: Ensure cream cheese is truly softened at room temperature for the smoothest mixture possible.
- Mix Gently: When folding in whipped topping, use a light hand to maintain the airy texture.
- Piping Perfection: Use a piping bag for clean, professional-looking shooters.
- Chill Out: Let the shooters set in the refrigerator to enhance flavor and texture.
- Garnish Game: Get creative with graham cracker crumbs and chocolate drizzle for visual appeal.
- Make Ahead: These can be prepared up to 24 hours in advance, making them perfect for entertaining.
- Serving Suggestion: Let sit at room temperature for 5 minutes before serving for the ideal creamy consistency.
