Chocolate Coated, Peanut Frosting Filled Wafer Treats


For the Wafers:

150 gram package Oblatne plain wafers

1 Tbsp Vegetable Shortening
1 ½ Tbsp Butter
1 cup Powdered Sugar
1 Tbsp Light corn syrup


For the Chocolate Coating:

1 1/2# Semi-sweet chocolate

1- To make the peanut butter frosting, put the peanut butter and shortening in the bowl of a mixer, and beat until combined.

2- With the mixer on low speed, add the powdered sugar in three stages.

3- Whip the mixture until light and fluffy.

4- Using a pastry bag and a flat piping tip, pipe a layer of the peanut butter frosting onto a wafer, then top with another wafer.

5- Repeat this process until there are four wafers with three layers of filling.

6- Gently press on the wafer pile to distribute the frosting, and cut into desired snack sizes.


1- To make the chocolate coating, chop the chocolate into small pieces, and place in a metal mixing bowl.

2- Place the bowl of chocolate on top of a pot of boiling water, add the heavy cream, and heat until smooth and viscous.
