Peanut Butter Cup Cookies

 

I guarantee these cookies will tickle your fancy.

What You Will Need... 

• 1 3/4 cups all purpose flour
• 1/2 tsp salt
• 1 tsp baking soda
• 1/2 cup butter, softened
• 1/2 cup peanut butter
• 1/2 cup packed brown sugar
• 1 egg, beaten
• 2 tsp vanilla extract
• 2  tbs milk
• 1 bag (40 pieces) of Reese's Peanut Butter Cup miniatures, unwrapped 

Directions... 

 

For starters, preheat your oven to 375 F! Combine the flour, salt, and baking soda. Set aside.

Next, beat the butter, sugar, peanut butter, and brown sugar until creamy. :)

(I used the paddle tool on this one.)

 

This is what you should get!

 

Now, beat in your egg, vanilla, and milk. After you've done that, add in your flour mixture. 

 

Yours should look something similar to this.

 Scoop your batter into 1 inch balls (or use a cookie scoop like I did) onto a ungreased cookie sheet. (But I just lightly sprayed mine with Pam) Go ahead and bake these bad boys for about 8 minutes.

While they're baking, you can use this time to unwrap your peanut butter cups! 

As SOON as they come out of the oven, immediately shove a peanut butter cup in the center! (Note: If your peanut butter cups are a bit too tall, you can set it down on the hot pan to melt it down a bit first and then place them in the middle. )

You should (hopefully) get a little something like this :)  

These make about 30 cookies.

Enjoy!
