Stuffed Peanut Butter Cup Cookies
Who wouldn't love a cookie stuffed with a peanut butter cup? Combining two flavors I love, these Stuffed Peanut Butter Cup Cookies are one of my favorite treats!
Ingredients
- 1 cup butter - softened
- 1/2 cup creamy peanut butter
- 3/4 cup packed brown sugar
- 1/2 cup sugar
- 1 egg
- 1 teaspoon vanilla
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1 package Miniature Reese's Peanut Butter Cups - unwrapped
Chocolate Drizzle:
- 1 cup semisweet chocolate chips
- 1 tablespoon creamy peanut butter
- 1 teaspoon shortening
Instructions
- In a large bowl, cream the butter, peanut butter, and sugars until light
- and fluffy. Beat in egg and vanilla.
- In a smaller bowl, combine flour and baking soda.
- Gradually add the dry mixture to the creamed mixture and mix well. Cover and refrigerate for 1 hour or until easy to handle.
- Roll dough into 1-1/4-inch balls. Press a miniature peanut butter cup into
- each; reshape balls.
- Place 2 inches apart on ungreased baking sheet.
- Bake at 350 degrees F for 12-15 minutes or until edges are lightly browned.
- Cool for 2 minutes before removing from pans to wire racks.
- For drizzle,melt chocolate chips, peanut butter, and shortening in a microwave (or in a double boiler). Stir until smooth. Drizzle over cooled cookies. (I allowed my mixture to cool slightly and then put it into a Ziploc bag. I snipped off a tiny portion of the corner of the bag so I could drizzle the cookies.)
