For the peanut butter lovers.

Yesterday was my friend's baby shower which I co-hosted and everything seemed to be a hit. The food was popular, the games were tons of fun, and seeing friends was fantastic. I made several tasty items and will post the rest in weeks to come. This week I am going to share with you what you get when you put my all time favorite candy, mini-peanut butter cups, into a cookie. They cookies are easy to make and go over well with all crowds.
Peanut Butter Cup Cookies
1 3/4 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 cup butter, softened
1/2 cup white sugar
1/2 cup peanut butter
1/2 cup packed brown sugar
1 egg, beaten
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 tablespoons milk
40 miniature chocolate covered peanut butter cups, unwrapped
Preheat oven to 375 degrees F .
In a small bowl sift together the flour, salt and baking soda; set aside. In a large bowl cream together the butter, sugar, peanut butter and brown sugar until fluffy. Beat in the egg,
vanilla and milk. Slowly add the flour mixture; mix well (at this point you can store the dough in the refrigerator until you are ready to make the cookies). Shape the dough into approximately 40 balls and place each into an ungreased mini muffin pan. Bake at 375 degrees for 8 minutes. Remove from oven and immediately press a mini peanut butter cup into each ball. Cool and carefully remove from pan; the chocolate will be runny for several hours.

Oh man, how did you manage to make it to your baby shower with any left to share?? I would have downed them all, I think!!
Oh my, these look sooo tasty!

Thanks for all the comments!
these are sooooo yummy..I posted these on my blog a while ago and they were a big hit!!!
Let me pick my mouth off the floor. Yummy.
Oh my, I am drooling over your yummy picture! I saw it on tastespotting and was immediately drawn to it, being a big peanut butter fan. I live in the UK and I think we can only get regular sized peanut butter cups here, sadly! :)
Wow, your cookies scream "perfection", they look wonderful!
I made these over the weekend and my husband demanded that I get them out of the house after he ate 5 of them in about 5 minutes... they're super cute and really easy to make. Thank you for the recipes!
Goodness, these are beautiful!! I posted a link-back to your page from my Facebook page...thank you for sharing the recipe!
I've been making these for years. You can vary them by using sugar cookie dough and mint cups!
I doubled this and only got 48 - and they appear to be the same size as yours! Strange!
This is an easy, excellent recipe! Thank you for sharing!
I have been making these for years at Christmas time. I usually buy several pre-made peanut butter cookie dough in tubs that the local elementary school children sell as their Fall fundraiser. They last up to 6 months in your freezer. Use can also make these using sugar cookies and adding a Hershey kiss or a Rollo. Both of those are yummy as well.
We've been making these in our family for decades, but we make them a little easier with Pillsbury peanut butter dough. Cuts the time down! We also freeze the Reese's cups first because it makes them easier to push into the dough. We do a rotating system with 4 mini muffin pans (12 per pan) and put one in for 5 minutes, put in another for 5, then pull out the first and so on so you have enough time to push them all in. They're at every holiday event and we ship them across the country for birthdays!
Hi Riza!
Thank you for this recipe! These were truly the best cookies I've ever made!!
My kids enhaled them which was a surprise because they are picky eaters when it comes to sweets!
Can't wait to try more of your recipes over the holidays!
Smiles, Susie
Thank YOU!
I make this with store bought peanut butter cookie dough and they are great. I also line cups with candy liners according to the holiday. You can add great finishing sprinkles to the chocolate as it's cooling.... Looks very festive ! I also pop mini muffin pans in refrigerator to speed up cooling.
I found this recipe off pinterest and am making it for the second time in a week, soooo yummy and so easy! Thanks for sharing
OMG these are so good! I just made a batch for a Christmas party tomorrow. My husband and I already ate three so we had to put them away!
I made these last week. My family really liked them! I loved how fast and easy they were to make, too :) Thanks for sharing the great recipe!
