What it is

Chopped peanut butter cups are a confection made from peanut butter mixed with sugar and sometimes other ingredients, then coated in chocolate. The mixture is typically formed into cup shapes and then chopped into smaller pieces for use as a topping or ingredient.

Why it's used

Manufacturers add chopped peanut butter cups to foods for their sweet, chocolatey, and peanut butter flavor and texture. They are most commonly found in frozen desserts like ice cream and frozen yogurt, adding a rich, decadent element.

Health notes

Chopped peanut butter cups are a food ingredient and not evaluated by regulatory bodies like the FDA for specific health benefits or risks. They are primarily a source of sugar and fat. As with many sweet treats, high consumption may contribute to excess calorie intake. The primary health consideration is related to the peanut content, which is a common allergen.

Allergen info

Peanut butter cups are derived from peanuts, which are one of the 9 FDA major allergens. They may also contain milk and soy, depending on the chocolate coating used.
