Introduction: Peanut Butter Mousse Cups
These are delicious little deserts. If you like Peanut Butter you will like these:)
Step 1: Buying the Right Pastry Cups
These are the cups to look for at the store. They’re made by Pepperidge Farm®, and you’ll find them in the frozen section near the pastries- like pie crust. These are mini dessert bites. If you’d prefer to make a more individual, larger-sized fancy dessert then pick up the Puff Pastry SHELLS instead.
Step 2: Baking the Pastry Cups
The Puff Pastry cups are so easy to work with. Straight out of the freezer, you just break them apart and set them on your baking sheet with the “cut” lines facing up. They’ll puff up in the oven, as shown. Then you use the end of a wooden spoon to just poke down the middle. What results is a little Puff Pastry container in which to hold your filling.
