I found this recipe and knew that I had to make them. I have been having major chocolate/peanut butter cravings and this one satisfied! They are really close to the Cyclops Cookies but with a Peanut Butter Cup instead of a Hershey Kiss. I hope you enjoy them just as much as we did!Ingredients:
About 40 Reese's Peanut Butter Miniatures
1/2 Cup (1 stick) butter or margarine, softened
1/2 Cup granulated sugar
1/2 Cup packed light brown sugar
1/2 Cup Peanut Butter
1 Egg
1/2 teaspoon vanilla
1 1/2 Cups Flour
3/4 teaspoons baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
Directions:
- Heat oven to 375 degrees
- Remove wrappers from candies
- Line small muffin cups with paper baking cups, if desired
- Beat Butter, sugar, brown sugar, peanut butter, egg and vanilla until fluffy in large bowl.
- In another bowl stir together flour, baking soda and salt; gradually add to butter mixture, beating until well blended.
- Shape dough into 1-inch balls; place one in each paper-lined or ungreased muffin cup. Do Not Flatten
- Bake 10 to 12 minutes until puffed and lightly browned; remove from oven.
- immediately press peanut butter cup in center of each cookie. Cool completely in muffin pan.
tips:
- I don't have two mini muffin pans so I used a fork to help me remove the completed cookies from the pan, once they had set just a little, and put them onto a cooling rack. It worked just fine and then I was able to do the second batch of cookies in the same pan.
