  • ½ cup butter
  • ½ cup heavy cream
  • ½ cup brown sugar

  • Add the powdered sugar, stir until combined (if it starts to clump, return to heat until just starting to melt.
  • Line an 8x8 pan with parchment, pour the peanut butter into the pan in an even layer, chill until set, about 1 hour.
  • In a microwave-safe bowl add the chocolate chips and beer (this can also be done in a double boiler), heat for 30 seconds, stir and repeat until melted and well combined.

Notes

Cheap, store-bought works best. Natural or homemade peanut butters are too oily.
