1/4 cup butter
3/4 cup granulated sugar
2 large eggs

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.

2. Stir the sugar into the chocolate mixture. Stir the eggs and vanilla into the mixture. Stir in the flour.
3. Line nine muffin cups with paper liners. Divide the batter between the nine liners. Put a teaspoon of peanut butter in the center of each.
