Ingredients
Ingredients:
- 1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter, softened
- 1/2 cup creamy peanut butter
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 1/2 cup packed brown sugar
- 1 large egg
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 3/4 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 24 mini Reese’s Cups, unwrapped
Instructions
Instructions:
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a large mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter, peanut butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until smooth.
- Add the egg and vanilla extract, then beat until well combined.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt.
- Gradually mix the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients until a dough forms.
- Roll the dough into 1-inch balls.
- Flatten each ball slightly and place a mini Reese’s Cup in the center. Wrap the dough around the candy, shaping it into a ball.
- Arrange the stuffed dough balls 2 inches apart on the prepared baking sheet.
- Bake for 8-10 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden.
- Let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes, then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Notes
- Use different chocolates like mini Snickers, Rolos, or other chocolate bars as a variation.
- If you prefer more texture, try using crunchy peanut butter instead of creamy.
- Drizzle melted chocolate over cooled cookies for an extra touch of sweetness.
- Roll dough balls in sugar before baking for a sparkly finish.
- Add chopped peanuts to the dough for more crunch and peanut flavor.
