Default peanut butter cups

Has anyone made these, i.e., sort of like the Reeses's Peanut Butter
Cups? I've seen two basic recipe variants. Most commonly, peanut butter
is mixed with powdered sugar, 2:1 ratio, for the filling. The other,
from a Tyler Florence show, uses a mousse:

PRINT-RECIPE-FULL-PAGE,00.html>

Any reason to favor the Tyler Florence version? The recipe is called
"Frozen Peanut Butter Cups"; does this imply that the cup filling is
overly soft at room temperature? All the recipes use plain semi-sweet
chocolate for the shell.

Some of the recipes call for adding vegetable shortening to the melted
chocolate. How would this effect the shell's texture?
