Let’s be honest: All Halloween candies
aren’t created equal. Peanut butter cups > everything. They’re pretty
much the best invention since, well, chocolate. So to pay homage to our
favorite treat of all time, we’ve created the world’s biggest peanut
butter cup. We give you permission to whip one up for every single
Halloween party this season. (Then invite us over.) [post_ads_2]

4. Meanwhile, in the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, cream the peanut butter and confectioners’ sugar until light and fluffy, about 4 minutes.
5. Beat in the salt and vanilla. Form the mixture into a 9-inch circle on a piece of parchment paper.
6. Remove the tart pan from the refrigerator and carefully place the peanut butter disk on top of it. Press the peanut butter layer into the edges of the pan.
