We understand that peanut allergies are a real issue for many people and while this recipe, as written is definitely a no-go for any one with a peanut allergy this recipe can be modified or adapted to be peanut free. First omit the peanut butter cups and the peanut butter because those are the ingredients that contain peanuts. You can use chopped nut-free chocolate or chocolate chips in the cheesecake batter in replacement for the chopped peanut butter cups. And instead of topping each cheesecake bite with a mini peanut butter cup you could leave plain with just the chocolate ganache or top with your favorite nut-free chocolate.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eThat being said it bears to remind you to be diligent in reading labels to make sure the other ingredients are nut free or not processed in a facility that also processes nuts. You know your or your families allergies best so be safe!
